nice articule about wheels, ats' ftw

it's crazy how big a difference what wheels on what car can make

 

[00_Civic_Si]

Do want bike. Want want wanttt.

 

[hooked_on4]

^^ 13k for the 1000 aint bad...

 

[Verwah]

As far as BMWs go, thats not a bad price at all. Used BMW touring bikes that are five years old still have 85% of their original new value.

 

[hooked_on4]

Yeah my dad wants a BMW touring bike badly

 

[anfrey]

i want a vespa... badly

 

[hooked_on4]

My mom has a 250cc vespa, it's fun, i've putted around in the country on it but it's like burgundy/purple so you wont catch me dead on that thing lol

 

[anfrey]

dude that's a totally sweet color scheme... i want a deep purple / clover green with an orange wavey stripe (streamline) in the middle paintscheme on mine.

 

[Verwah]

I want one of these badly. its not fast by any standards, but its nimble and capable of full off-road duty. Best part, its cheap even brand new with full factory warrenty. The dealer I've found will even pay for my "M" class license. Fuuu

 

[somejaykid]

i want a small dirt bike like 50cc to goof around with it

 

[anfrey]

with fast cars, we don't need fast bikes. i know i'd be dead for sure.... welltuned vespas can go up to 80mph tho

 

[Verwah]

Amen Anfrey. Fast bikes do scare me.

Fast bikes are different than fast cars. I can handle full throttle applications of huge horepower if I've got four wheels and a closed sanctuary. Fast bikes, even moderately fast bikes are too raucious for my experience level.

 

[anfrey]

agreed... plus i'm a skinny mofo, i don't have enough weight to get the bike back down if the front wheel lifts up. hell, i rode a harley one time when i was younger and i couldn't bring it back up after taking a roundabout lol... but when it comes to bikes, it's the braking that i find most challenging (and most fun)... having to apply proper ratios of front and rear brakes... it gets tricky sometimes.

i haven't ridden in years (since i was a teenager)... i do miss it

nah her scheme is like dark purple w/a tan seat

 

[Verwah]

...Gold wheels and baller status achieved.

 

[hooked_on4]

lol it's my moms she is in no need of "baller status" haha

reminds me of this car

 

[Verwah]

That car, that body color, and that wheel color is the only combination of elements that will induce me to like 4-spokes. For some reason, I love them on this car. But I hate those wheels, despite them being SSR Professors. Baller is built into the name.

 

[hooked_on4]

^^ agreed 100%

SSR 4 spokes > all other 4 spokes to me

 

[EMIIspecED]

4 spokes = f**king win
