What really kills me is WHO cleared these guys to buy the super sport bikes they ride on now? Who gets to decide when someone IS ready for a SS bike? What are the requirements? Who gets to set the standards? This guy? |

truth is... the advice is a very safe aproach trying to get people to realize what they're getting into... the problem is the advice generalizes... and you can't do that with motorcycles or people. every person is diffrent. as for who asked... well no one yet... but go to any large froum and there's at least 3 or 4 new threads monthly if not weekly asking about what bike they should start on. I think the author was just hope'n to type it once and blanket the majority of newbies... |

Oh and I think that the author just thought he found somewhere new to post his long winded dissertation on why he knows best and everyone else is stupid if they don't agree with him. Last edited by Amber Lamps; 11-11-2008 at 06:15 PM.. |

but I'll make an effort tonight. but like I said... I think it's the BETTER SAFE THAN SORRY standpoint... I think he knows not everyone is going to listen to him... but the ones that do... will "probably" be better off. the thing is they have nothing to loose (other than some douchbags opinion of them) by starting small. but it's impossible to give general advice like that and have it apply to everyone. I think they guy just assumed that we may have some new riders or wanna be's and is offering up some advice. knowing most won't take it. Oh... and Racer-X... meet Tigger |

It's just that this isn't a NOOB haven. Heck,I went back to and every other post is some noob asking questions. That is one of my favorite things about this board almost zero new riders! I mean if he would have taken the time to read some of the threads in this sub forum,he would have seen that this shit has been covered ad nauseum already and that there were almost no "what should I get for my first bike?" threads here. Ok I'm taking deep breaths......alright cool... Hey RacerX welcome to TWFix! |
