252 a month and it can do a quarter mile in 10 seconds.
Why don't you buy a bike /o/?
I have future prospects
>weather
>safety
>bikers in general
i have a bike already
fuck off
I like being alive and not having to rely almost entirely on everyone else for my safety.
I'd rather have a scooter.

It rains for 8 months a year here while also hovering around 0 degrees.
>>14082440
Why pay monthly payments on a bike that won't even technically be mine for five whole years when I could drop ~$2300 in cash and drive a Grom with no miles on it fresh out of a dealership?

>>14082493
little ass streetfighters comparable to a giant fucking sports touring bike that goes 200mph.
>>14082493
Also a Grom would be like $12-35/mo for insurance depending on your policy.
A Hayabusa or similar bike would cost at least $80-$200/mo.
>>14082520
[spoiler]it's more expensive than the monthly payment for me. As OP I'm actually running the numbers to buy one.[/spoiler]
>>14082508
Obviously you're poor if you're looking at bikes that cost $252/mo after financing. I gave you a better option since it's fiscally more responsible and probably a lot more fun.
Unless you're too insecure to be seen on a small street fighter because you're afraid people you don't know will call you gay.
I'll be over here with stacks of cash in the bank while you're crashing a dealership owned bike into walls for the next five years and missing payments due to your medical bills.
>>14082440
have a 78 yam rd 400 about to buy a hybrid honda crfx250 with a cr500 motor
hayabusa? lolno
straights are for fast bikes, corners are for fast riders
>>14082542
I'm also not 5'5" and that little as bike isn't suitable for freeway riding.
But ey if you're a gayboi in london a grom might be great.
>>14082536
I'm just taking the piss m8. If it's what you want, go for it. Groms have totally different purposes.
I value my life, also buying a bike would make me a biker.
>>14082440
Because drag racing is all bikes are good for. I prefer turning.
>>14082556
not buying a bike makes you a faggot so...
>>14082520
A busa would be 500-900 a month here for insurance
a grom would be 60-90
I'm a faggot and don't like the way crotch rockets look.
I'm more of a dual sport kinda guy.
I might try to find me a Yamaha WR350R like pic related. What do you guys think?
>>14082573
holy fuck you euros get ass raped on insurance
>>14082580
Western Canadian. We're basically born cucked here
>>14082578
Sorry, WR250X. I'm retarded.
>>14082584
eh tried to buy a suzuki rgv250 2t crotch rocket from a guy in toronto, too much red tape to import it
>>14082578
>>14082589
yeah wr's and drz's are nice bikes and the best for cheap sumos
can't wait to get one soon.
>>14082636
drz's meh.
so boring itll be reliable but put you to sleep after a few months of owning one
>>14082636
Yeah I just wanna find a used WR or DRZ in good shape.
I live in southeastern Kentucky so there are a few backroads (nothing crazy, just a little dirt and bumps) I'd like to ride around on and I'd be afraid to get a sport bike like a rocket or street fighter on them.
Plus I just like the way dirts look.
>>14082662
Not if you're riding it on roads like this
>>14082662
Sprocket, big bore, stroker, and cams
turns it into a hand grenade but it's fun till it blows up
>>14082679
nah
ill stick with two strokes much less $ for maintenance
thats not a real bike, thats an appliance.....no more soul than a toaster......now this is a bike!
>>14082738
Yeah but you can't ride 2 strokes on the street here
>>14082886
where do you live craplackistan?
Honestly because I'm fallible and I'm scared of dying
Still kinda want one tho
>>14082493
I'm a manlet and I'm way too big to ride a grom. Those things are basically pocket bikes, they are fucking stupid.
>>14082493
Are groms highway capable? Because you could get a coward's ninja 250 pregen with low mileage for even less, and it at least goes 100 mph.
>>14082738
>much less $ for maintenance
Is this true? Everyone always tells me how most decent 2T's have racing engine that needs to be rebuilt after 100 or less run hours.
>>14082493
>entry level street bike performance
nigga wut
>>14082467
This, I actually like scooters. Cheaper, more economical, and I find them fun to ride along beaches or rivers.
>>14082440
I've been thinking about it but I'm weak and insecure enough to think how I look on a bike.
>Not owning an unfinanced KTM 530
http://orlando.craigslist.org/mcy/5340046192.html
I would rather this. Neutral position, not stolen nearly as much as busas, and at $2000?
fuck yea.
Current ride is an old '78 GS550
>>14083312
topout around 55-60 i believe
>>14082440
I would love to as my dad did and I would like to ride across the country with him. However, where I live it's a death trap to ride one as no one seems to give a shit about them and don't pay attention.
I'll get a nice cruiser eventually though.
