Yep, so I finally drove a bike. GSXR 1000.A RUSH. I was dickin around in the parking lot getting the feel of it. 1st gear was extremly touchy. I have ridin dirt bikes and such all my life so I knew how to ride, I just needed to get used to a 1000. After dicking around for 5-10 minutes, out on the road I went - what a rush. I need to buy me a bike. I think a license is more important first though.

Your telling me. I was nervous in first gear alone. Im used to feathering into first, go, pop into second and hammer it.... no no no not on this bike. I need to get my license. This damn piece of shit car is gobbling up all my money and time.

It was nice when i was in second and i go through the gear at full throttle, pop into 3rd and go through the gear.... The bike is just nasty. Im still nervous on shifting. I mean, I shift fast but Im nervous how much gas I gave it after clutch was out. It felt everytime i shifted and pulled throttle back just a little, the thing would jump and scare the hell out of me but once I start feathering through the throttle, oh what a rush that was. I didnt dare bring it past 100mph. I was scared enough.

whats a helmet gonna do for ya at 190mph other than keep the bugs and shit out of your eyes...going down at that speed wouldn't be good anyway you look at it

either way hes fucked, the car is just more of a mess to clean up. i fgure hes doing the FD a favor by not making them cut the body out of the wreck haha. and the way he drives, hes a lot less likely to get in an accident on a bike.
