i don mind getting one of those bikes to ride leisurely with friends and stuff..
but i do admit that i hate some bikers at the traffic lights. some of them come in between ur car and another and stop right infront of u. they simply cant stick to their 'lane'.
i agree that these bikes can accelerate really fast, but majority, they dont. in fact they road hog right infront of u.
hmmm.. but do these bikes really cost so much? brand new ones cost like $20k. it isnt as much as a brand new car, in fact, half price.. -
still as dangerous

(gazes at bike pics)
Hmm, maybe I'll get a bike licence before a car one... -
honestly i regard them as nuisance, 10years back i used to ride motorcycle.Originally posted by sidestep1984:As a car driver....what do u guys think of Ducati's, Aprilia's, Triumphs,MV Agustas Moto Guzzis and other italian breeds on the road?

italian bikes range from 40k(thats the cheapest average price for italians) to 80k...for the MV Agusta F4 family of bikes..some even go up tp 100k due to it being limited editions..Originally posted by zerocool85:i don mind getting one of those bikes to ride leisurely with friends and stuff..

Shit, i may not know how to ride a bike, but I'd gladly kill myself trying to ride a Ducatti. GSX-Rs, Hayabusas, R1s, Ninjas, 996s, Triumps, Harley Davidsons, oh my word the lots... I love 'em!Originally posted by sidestep1984:As a car driver....what do u guys think of Ducati's, Aprilia's, Triumphs,MV Agustas Moto Guzzis and other italian breeds on the road?

Comparing with bul!sh!t's post for at motorcycle....
Cons: still no aircon, still afraid of rain, still no radio,cd changer, still can't take more passenager. + now afraid of traffic jam + fast but not in sg context
but the pros becomes:
Not as dangerous, probably dun have to wear helmet, you get Honda's engineering (engine) and probably lots of attention... -
dangerous is my main concern because i fell from motor bike twice beforeOriginally posted by free4ever:but the pros becomes:

and it hurts me a lot.
i don't mind getting a Atom if i got lot of money
