You've posted 6 times since January, so if you were banned I don't think it would bother you very much.you guy are too modest. listen dude I will say it " your an idiot"! If I get banned from here for saying that. I will pay for it.
Just thought it was assumed that it was not a street tire.... I do still do a rolling burnout to knock off dust, pebbles, etc... though with a street tire... has this guy got his bike yet?Not sure that I agree about burn-outs being a must at the strip on a street tire. In a drag or race tire the compound is designed to get more sticky as it heats up. On a street tire (cars anyway) the tire will actually get less sticky if you heat it up like that. In a car, (475whp 2003 Cobra, w/street tires on it) I would by pass the water, spin the tires over a couple of times just to get the dirt and dust off them. With the Drag Radials no doubt light 'em up and let 'em smoke..... burnouts are a must at the dragstrip other than that just a waste of a tire.....
JMHO

BTW - That car ran sub-12s 1/4s before a nice lady totaled it for me 2 weeks after I paid it off.
Yeah, it's driving me crazy! I've been off work the past 2 days and it would have been perfect! But I called and talked to the dealer again and my finance company and figured out what the delay is... the dealer is just waiting for the check to post. It should happen this week. The finance company said it should only take 24 hrs. My guess would be that the dealer was delayed in putting it in the bank for some reason. It's driving me nuts! But I'm not worried or anything because I will have the bike soon...PaN -
Did you bring home the bike today? If you haven't, Im thinking the wait is almost driving you crazy.
Your guess would be wrong. I've already said I used to own a Katana 600 and rode that thing every day as my primary mode of transportation. I even rode it in the rain (when i had to). I rode that bike with only a helmet in the LA area... no jacket/pants. I completely respect everyone's opinion about wearing full gear. And obviously, it's more of a gamble to ride a busa without full gear than with.My guess is this guy has never owned his own bike. I think he got on here - read how beginners are discouraged, and said what he felt he had to say to draw out the info he needed.
That's okay, because we've probably all done it at one time or another.
I don't understand him drawing negative attention to himself by arguing the gear issue. It's obvious how everyone on here feels.
My advice to you my friend would be to take it very slow. If you have people that depend on you - think about them.
Its all fun-n-games until it isn't.
This is no bike for a novice with a Superman cape.
Good luck!
Bingo !!From what I've seen, some here are "elitists" and others are very down to earth about everything.
This is the NEW OWNERS FORUM so I'm asking NEW OWNER QUESTIONS.... if that makes me a "troll" in your eyes, then so be it.....
But... if the mods insist on "shid".... I guess I'll say shid! Even though that's bullshid! haha!
But, yeah, I'm a troll who rides in shorts!
I plan on riding my bike every day to work and around town... and using riding pants/jacket just isn't practical. That's why I have no plans on getting pants/jacket to ride. Simple as that. I also live about 3 miles from work... not far. I'm not an idiot. I know a crash can happen right outside my driveway... it can't be predicted. I guess I'll suffer the consequences if I crash in shorts and a short sleeve shirt! You can laugh at me if I do!
I'm here to make some friends... not enemies. So how about actually posting some comment to me instead of just posting "TROLL" pictures?

You're not asking "new owner" questions, merely questions on how to become a better squid. Thereby giving the impression that you are a "Trolling Squid"
If you are gonna be that big of a squid, at least put on gear.
