Yamaha YZF R1<br>You scored 7 moxie, 9 zeal, and 1 pomp! <br>You're addicted to speed, but have the knowledge and experience to match. Although you like to win, you don't really care so much about competing with others as much as competing with yourself. <br>Your bike is the Yamaha YZF R1. Given how easily the rear wheel on this beast spins up coming out of turns, it is fortunate that you constantly work to improve your skills. (I've seen more R1s crash at track days than any other bike.) <br><br>It was a close decision with the Suzuki GSXR1000, but your personality seemed a bit more R1-ish. (But hey, I could be wrong. Its only a silly test.) <p>_____________________________________________<br>Listen Pal, that is not YOUR lane, it's the fast lane.<br> <br>Goin' to da GP.. <br><br>The difference between 'involvement' and 'commitment' is like an eggs-and-ham breakfast: the chicken was 'involved' - the pig was 'committed'. <br>- unknown<br></p><i></i>

Re: What bike should you own ?
Well alrighty then, I either take the test again and lie (like their test was any kind of conclusive evidence anyway), or I figure out how to stuff a 1070 Yami on steriods into that stoopid 883 frame, saw off the front and the rear for attatchment of roadworthy suspension pieces, and show up at the harley (that's with a small "h") watering hole on fight night...............hee hee hee.....shhhhhhhh......don't tell.....<br><!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :rollin --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/roll.gif ALT=":rollin"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <!--EZCODE EMOTICON START :rollin --><img src=http://www.ezboard.com/images/emoticons/roll.gif ALT=":rollin"><!--EZCODE EMOTICON END--> <p><!--EZCODE FONT START--><span style="color:blue;font-family:times new roman;font-size:small;">Genisx1AtYahooeyDotCommaMomma</span><!--EZCODE FONT END--></p><i></i>

Re: Yamaha FJR1300
John,<br>I'm curious what the reserve is on the Godfather bike. It's definitely a show bike rather than a canyon carver (10" wide rear wheel with a 250mm tire). It would be a good looking bike if it didn't have the faces painted on it. <br>Don <p></p><i></i>

What bike should I own Test results!!!!
Yamaha FJR1300<br><br>I figured I'd eventually grow into one of these sport/tourers, but until then! I'll enjoy my '96 YZF750!!!<br><br>You scored 3 moxie, 6 zeal, and -1 pomp! <br>You have the characteristics of a master street rider. On the way to work, your love for riding sometimes leads you to take the long way. The 50-miles-of-back-roads long way. You live for the perfect road, and plan vacations around riding. <br>You need a bike that can handle your addiction to the twisties as well as comfortably carry two on a weekend trip through the mountains. Your bike is the FJR1300. Can I borrow it someday? <br><br>My test tracked 3 variables How you compared to other people your age and gender:<br> <br> You scored higher than 41% on moxie <br> <br> You scored higher than 74% on zeal <br> <br> You scored higher than 14% on pomp <br> <br> <p></p><i></i>

Re: What bike should you own ?
Just playing around with the test using totally random answers, I wound up with......<br><br><br><br><br><br><!--EZCODE FONT START--><span style="font-size:large;"><!--EZCODE BOLD START--><strong>The Volvo</strong><!--EZCODE BOLD END--></span><!--EZCODE FONT END--><br>You scored <!--EZCODE FONT START--><span style="color:red;">-8 moxie, -7 zeal, and 2 pomp</span><!--EZCODE FONT END-->! <br>You're mostly interested in getting from point A to point B alive and in one piece, and it seems like everybody out there is crazy and trying to kill you. Instead of noticing that a big part of the problem is your tentative and ambiguous behavior on the roads, you solve the problem by surrounding yourself with an impenetrable cage of metal. <br>In today's automotive market, you probably have a SUV instead of a Volvo. Don't kid yourself, you suffer from the exact same pathology. <br><br>In any case, you are entirely unsuited for motorcycling. In fact, your propensity for suddenly slamming on the brakes at the end of highway onramps, driving 55mph in the left lane, leaving your blinker on for 10 miles, and "being nice" by unpredictably stopping in a multi-lane road to let people turn in front of you makes you fairly unsuited for driving anywhere, particularly if there are any motorcycles around to get crushed by your tank-like car. <br> <br><br> <p><!--EZCODE IMAGE START--><img src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v209/ ... <!--EZCODE IMAGE END--><br><!--EZCODE ITALIC START--><em><!--EZCODE FONT START--><span style="color:red;font-family:times new roman;font-size:small;">There are some who call me........Tim?</span><!--EZCODE FONT END--><br><!--EZCODE FONT START--><span style="color:white;font-family:times new roman;font-size:small;">Top Speed = Mach 0.197 or so... </span><!--EZCODE FONT END--> <br><!--EZCODE FONT START--><span style="color:blue;font-family:times new roman;font-size:small;">1994 FZR 1000</span><!--EZCODE FONT END--></em><!--EZCODE ITALIC END--> <!--EZCODE IMAGE START--><img src="http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v209/ ... <!--EZCODE IMAGE END--> </p><i></i>

oh my god
Harley 883 Sportster<br>You scored 3 moxie, 1 zeal, and -2 pomp! <br>You scored dead center average, lacking any of the personality quirks that normally drive people to motorcycling. <br>However, if you do ride, statistics would suggest that you are destined for a Harley-Davidson, probably something in the Softail line. <br><br> <br>What can i say, and i ride a blackbird and exup............. <p></p><i></i>
