Dunno, google 'confederate wraith', that's what it's called.

Imagine the polishing on that last one...

Actually I'd take one of these fully optioned for $45k US, that's a bargain.

Look at the heavy duty-ness of it here:

Not sure but I guess you'd pay that for a fully optioned hardley.

Over 1ltr per cylinder, gotta thump like a mofo too.

But really, why would you build your masterpiece of engineering(i spose) and then power it with the most backward, retarded, brain dead............. piece of crap. It's like building the space shuttle and then powering it with a holden 202 motor

Those last couple are probably more works of art rather than engineering, and even if, as works of art, they are barely rideable, why don't they show them off with a rider? Wouldn't that be more artistic?

I felt remorse about some of the stuff i posted on this topic . Im to scared to log in now but hey i made the point that bikes are dangerous I guess you go thru stages of your life. After about 30 i promptly ended my motorcycle career. As much as its a unrelated topic" I think that you get to your late 20's and become a bit more safety conscious/family orientated if you choose that destination) you kinda re asses life. Going down the freeway at 260kph on a jap bike risking your life and your family well being becomes an issue.
I guess ive "lost the edge" fellas. But in saying that there comes a time where the risk outweighs the rewards.

Just remember unless your filthy rich after the age of 25 its non justifiable spending 20+k on a liability namely ( motorcycle) if your still in a rental property.

Anyways the reason why i was so livid with some users namely doggie.. etc is because he is an older forum user he should know better. Continual posts promoting boobies and seeing women as sex objects is a disgrace. Them "boobies could be your misses or daughter.So don't promote it.There is plenty of internet sites where you can find boobies for free. Im fed up with his ****.
Anyways Doggie (younger generation)people look up to you n here try and give them the bet advice as possible.

the bloke can't even admit he went too far without starting another tirade. one half-hearted sentence about feeling a bit of remorse and then he's off again.

There's no denying motorcycles are inherently more dangerous than enclosed vehicles... that's probably why my CTP costs $890!

WTF!

How did this happen? 2 years ago it was $560 for a 1300cc, now $890 for a 1190cc farking runts, gouging us cos of the floods.
My Subaru Outback went from $420 last year to $480.

Farkers!

ps:


No women were forced to show their boobs for this image

Yep.

At times it can be quite pleasant and fun to see a beautiful woman on a thread, not wearing much, to lighten the mood up. But I agree, the joke is way overdone on seabreeze and I don't find it funny or in context to what's being discussed.

Mods, can you please take some initiative and remove boobs for a while?

Can you remember the last time I posted an actual pic of some boobs? I generally do it if a thread is getting a bit out of control to give some lighthearted (.Y.) what is wrong with that? [}:)]

I didn't name anyone and wasn't having a go at you or anyone else in particular - just saying that sometimes jokes are taken a little far.
