Who here owns a motorbike? Or wants a motorbike! I got my bike licence a while ago now,and absolutly love riding the thing! Its pretty fun! Tell us about your bike our how much ya want one or dont want one.

i had a cbr250rr for a year, i sold it to fund a rebuild + i was sick of people in cage's trying to kill me.

Ive had a few bikes, last was a ex ballards xr280, works susp, etc About to get a 50 of some sort

Ive got an RMX250 give me a pm if you want to go riding sometime.

i got a cbr250rr justa slow road bike! havent really got into dirt bikes yet! But would love to get one as well.

haha i was thinkin bout startin a thread about who has a motorbike, and how much faster their bike is than their VLT!! i got an 11sec Yamaha XS850 and a pos Yamaha XS250, got my R-E class April Last yr, and my R class April this yr, and still on my P's!!! Now im just waitin for my mates to get their bike licences so i can go cruizin with ppl other than my dad!!

I got my bike l's about 2-3 months ago. Hired a cbr250rr from clipstone (who suck dik, but we won't go into that, pm if ya want the low down on why) and i can honestly say the 'bike bug' has bitten me i'm about to buy a new car (vl turbo ) so that will leave me close to broke so i think before i get a car i might get a loan for 2 bikes, because i rode my mates 2002 cr125 and dirtbikes ***in rule too! so i'm considering getting either a kx125 or a yz125 - both will be prolly no less than 2002 model because i want one that is close to new. anyone here know for a fact which one is quicker? i'm also going to get for the road either a cbr250rr or a gsx-r250, prolly the honda but i wouldn't mind the extra go of the suzuki as i can see myself getting sick of the power of the cbr real quick this thread is cool! keep the replies coming people! ps - jared, don't bother posting here, your anti-bike comments aren't wanted! lol Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

I've got a cbr250rr and almost like riding it more than driving the vlt. In summer u can't beat it. looking at upgrading at the moment to a gsxr 600 so if anyone in sydney is after a cbr 250 rr! I wouldn't mind getting back into dirt bikes either

My dad used to own a motorbike, until he crashed into a Mercedes and broke his leg Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

I've got a 99' KDX200 and a CT110, I had 2 RMX250's and a KTM125EXC not so long ago as well. I love riding and my mates and I go as much as possible. I'm saving up for a Yamaha TRX850 as a Sunday bike. Love that Twin cylinder sound!!! Don't ask me about injuries tho.......

i change my mind that much it isnt funny... but i love bikes so im thinking of getting bike license next year love the cbr250rr s.. only even been on the back of a cbr250r and **** that was some scary ****

I think its fair to say that being on the back of nearly any motorbike thats getting driven hard is scary enough Even though I've been on the back of one so many times grabbing a lift with my dad, and almost been hit countless times.. I still want one. Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

ive got a rgv250 (avatar), nothing is more fun than a two stroke. i highly recommend you cbr owners invest in a penis as you are a bunch of women no honestly i was looking at cbr250's but i had sense slapped into me and was told to look at rgv's. theres nothing like the smell of two stroke in the morning oh yeah and i dont have a license yet Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

yeh but the 2 strokes have to be rebuilt quite often dont they ? i dont particularly like the sound of 2 strokes 11second bike? maybe im just stupid but that sounds pretty slow for a bike? my mates cbr250rr does like 0-100 in say 4-4.5 seconds so i wouldve imagined itd run a 10 or 11 or something.. and 850 would be even quicker yeh?

Quote: so i'm considering getting either a kx125 or a yz125 - both will be prolly no less than 2002 model because i want one that is close to new. anyone here know for a fact which one is quicker? my loan got approved today so can anyone help me out with this question honestly before i go into a bike shop and they feed me sh1t?? thanks ppl Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

The other day i was on the back of a ZX9R and the ***cer did a massive mono, i was holding on for grim life! He says " Oh **** man i forgot you where there!" I was like nah that was awesome! 666god-The YZ will be quicker AneemA- CBR's will be quick to 100 but after that your grandma could over take you in her trolly! dr00- I wanted a 2 stroke but couldnt be bothered with the rebuilds cause i ride my bike bloody hard

nah cbr250's aren't fast down a track. they top out at 180k's if your lucky, and from 160 they don't climb real fast. They do sound Fcuking awsome revving to 19,000 RPM though!!!! edit: i dragged a C32 AMG mercedes from a standstill to about 130. We were DEAD even and that car's supposed to hit 100 in 5.4sec.

Some original photos have not been recovered yet.

cbr's do like a mid 14. 11 sec is very good for a bike, just coz it gets to 100 quickly doesnt mean a quick quarter. the r1's and gsxr's do 10 secs and hayabusa's can do 9's with a good rider. trust me a cbr250 wouldnt come close, they are slowwww.

2 strokes are made to be ridden hard, that is their purpose on this planet. they need rebuilds probably every 20-25000kms and it only costs about 4-500 for the bits to do it yourself or around 800 ride in ride out. they sound beautiful and go even better Some original photos have not been recovered yet.
