I've never been bashed either. Not that I would really care. Opinions are like a**holes and both generally stink just as much.
I could have bought a big twin. I just couldn't see myself riding a "couch" around. That's for guys that are a whole lot fatter than me in my opinion.....(yep it does stink).

i normally dont go looking to race..i pretty much knew that when i said something about racing it would shut him down..if it came down to it i most likely wouldnt have raced him,,especially not on streets i wasnt familiar with..im kinda glad he didnt except the race because he was riding a tricked out duece and from what ive heard them bikes are pretty fast due to the power to weight ratio..i might have been the fool if he would have accepted..
