I think you should make a will first, those things are crazy. And since 9s flat won't be fast enough for you, I know you'll slap on a nitrous kit.
It was nice knowin ya, Payam

you missed out i just sold my bike a couple months ago. i have my license though. i want another but i think ill get a chopper next time. i was really into bikes when i got it but it lost its appeal real fast when i had to pay over 200 for insurance and it was 230 for the bike payment. so with a car it just cost to much. bought it brand new only had 2 km on it. 1998 CBR600F3. if you get a new one get the new 600RR it is low 10's off the showroom floor. my buddies cousin races a kawasaki. he is at mission sometimes at the street legals he was running 9.01 on his street bike but it might be in the 8's now and he runs in the 7's in think on his race bike. they are fun but i was pretty stupid on mine when i got it. i used to split cars and stuff even split 2 semis once and ill tell you right now dont do it. you'll probably have fun but it will probably lose it's appeal. get a chopper. fastest i ever went was 265 on it. if you get one you'll probably try it . its fast on a bike . ive been 240 in the car but 265 with nothing around you is fast.

I did the bike thing when I was 18 - 22.

I was a good safe rider - but after being almost killed a half a dozen times by stupid people in cars, I decided that I like having all my body parts.

Bikes are great fun though......although all I had was a lowly 1983 Yamaha Maxim 650.

Before I sold it, I had a friend ride it and race me in my Camaro.
It was dead even.

Good Luck to you Payam - hope you enjoy yourself!

Is you bike going to be faster than your Camaro?

i'd say i 600RR will be fast enough for a long time. i would say you'd have to be really experienced to ride a R1 with nitrous. an r1 one with just a pipe will be faster then your camaro. even without the pipe.

You guys are all talking about girls bikes!! Try giving a nice Soft Tail or Wide Glide and then we will talk.

Seriously, I'm siging up for the course in Jan with my Mom!!! Thats right...my mom! My mom is sick of riding on the back and when my Dad get a new bike this year, she gets the old one. I myself will be saving for a Harley Davidson to buy within the next few years.

Talking about girls bikes? yet your moms is going to be riding a hog? You can't even compare the two types of bikes, they are completley different then each other. It'slike comparing a 4 door family sedan to a 2 door sports car.

Anyways, I'm with Talos on this one, I can't stand HArley, especially now that they are affiliated with Ford. Screw Ford and screw Harley's. I'd rather own a Honda GOldwing then a Harley
