April 20, 200718 yr Sometimes my wife sort of says the same thing, only this time I bought an '86 BRAT (3 weeks ago). She's not mad at me at all. As a matter of fact, I think she's a little worried about me. I've always had new cars, and lately have been getting tired of payments and insurance and mediocre gas mileage. She's thinks I'm crazy, but I feel great. I own the Brat free and clear, the insurance is about a buck a day, the gas mileage is much better than my Chevy Tahoe and best of all, it's fun to drive. So next time she tells me "do whatever you f**** want", she'll probably suggest some restrictions.:-\

April 20, 200718 yr thats funny, when my wife says "do whatever you want" its usually fallowed by "but...":-p
April 21, 200718 yr WOW I have been married 4 years and have NEVER heard 'do whatever you want'. guess my wife knows me too well
April 22, 200718 yr Yup. Closer to two hundred measured at the crankshaft.. I dunno how I get along with a measly 142 rwhp on my ZRX..at least my (ex)wife can't make me sell it!

A bike with roughly three times the horsepower as my EA81 I bet you can actually feel it accellerating? I don't have anyone who tells me what not to buy ... maybe that's because I have too many subarus already
April 26, 200718 yr Author Hmmm. A bike with roughly three times the horsepower as my EA81 I bet you can actually feel it accellerating? : Once your feeling catches up , maybe
April 26, 200718 yr Yeah, you can feel it alright..when I bought my 1100 back in '99, it was 'sposed to be a street toy and daily transportation..it ended up replacing my drag car in the end..there's nothing that feels quite like a fast bike, it strains the arm muscles to just maintain your position on the bike under hard throttle. The accelleration of a stock sportbike is outrageous, and the top end is just scary..mine's one of the slower musclebikes out there, but in the current state of trim it'll run a low ten second quarter mile and top out at just about one seventy. That Gixxer thou' in the ad would eat me alive, and a ZX14 Kaw or a Hayabusa would do the same to the Gixxer.. Scary-fast, whacky-fun!
