Well as some of you may know, I havent been around in a while since my mx-3 has been gone for a while. I check in and look at the posts but ive turned into a lurker now

But anyway, just figured I would show you what I am rockin now instead of the mx-3...

2005 Yamaha r6. As of now has 504 miles on it. Bought it brand new and I wish it was sunny everyday becuase I cant get enough of it. And after riding this, driving cars boars me! Well let me know what you guys think. Its still new so I havent dont much to it. I have a tinted double bubble windscreen but thats it.

eh goes for about 8,300 without taxes. Worth it man faster then any stock car. Say it runs a 10.8 in the 1/4 and has about 123hp. Thing is crazy fast I cant imagine a 1000.

I hope you have a high midi-chlorian count. (Star Wars)

In time as with everything else, the novelty will wear off. Hopefully the spirit and passion for biking will parallel that of the MX. A good balance between the 2 is a good thing, IMO. Take it from someone who's owned and rode bikes for 35 years....and I still love my Ducati....hey it may still give those rice rockets a run for their money. Long live the Desmo...LOL. Enjoy the biking times!!

Its holding the place of the mx-3 quite well. The best thing that I can say is that....my bike is faster then Perry's car

Ha anyway, if you guys know any bike sites that you can get aftermarket stuff for bikes, post em, thanks

Haha, your bike is probably faster than most peoples cars..
I want a little ninja 250, I'm kind of short (5'6'') , and I like little maneuverable bikes anyway.

I love it by the way, good choice

Thanks man, Im 6 foot, and i fit the bike perfectly. The bike is quite small and moves anywhere you want it. Although, I dont have anything else to compare it to because this is the only thing ive ridden. Should be getting my yoshi exhaust and my new turn signals and eliminator kit for the tail.

I'm not fond of motorcycles, not because they scare me or anything, but for the sheer fact that other people are idiots.

Mainly, my brother (when I was about 9 or so) was riding his bike through an intersection when someone in a car got gas happy and took off when they had a red light. Smacked right into the side of him as he was turning. Now, he's got a metal rod in his leg, some hinges in his knee, and a nice scar. Albeit, he will get a disability check from the Air Force once he retires since it happened while he was (and still is) enlisted.

Yeah it happens when people dont pay attention ya know. A lot of people in cars dont even care that you are on a bike they will tail gate you or cut in front of you. Its crazy but you just have to be more aware ya know. O well, im having fun, almost 900 miles on the bike!
