I posted a pic of my old bike before I layed it down, now, I'm looking to buy a new one.
My cousin wants me to buy his old racing bike (street racing, that is) to me for a price thats almost free (gotta love family), but, the only problem is; I love my life. Unlike my bike before, the Suzuki Hayabusa has a spedometer reading of 220 and 15,000 RPMs. My cousin's bike, with aftermarket mods, has run the quarter in 8 seconds at 189 mph. I want the bike, but I'm also scared to death of it. I weigh 158lbs and that bike could easily shoot out from under me. Basically, it's like giving a Ferrari to a kid who's only driven a busted Pinto. Anyways, here's the beast...

make sure the bike is less than half your weight or to be more safe
or the bike will have more control than you! and that would be bad |

I grew up around bikes.
My cousin had a Hayabusa. I was scared of it. And he let my other cousing ride it and he layed it down &totaled it. But, it's an amazing bike, if you want it that bad, then you should go for it.
