Lmao thanks.......sometimes i want to come back by saying she rides like a coked up stripper- shes loud, fast, slightly underweight, punishing but well worth the pain, but thats kind of crude.

She's loud, not real fast, handles like a dump truck, but looks great. That's what I love about her!

I figure people that matter don't ask questions like that and the people that don't matter ....well you get the point.

I like the stripper reference, tho.

I had a guy tell me one time that my bike was so ugly that it was cool......before thinking i blurted out, "like your mom?"........I sometimes have a problem voicing all the rude nasty things im thinking before, well, thinking.
