I might be able to fit a new bike in my small ass garage.
Bimmer84 wroteDefinitely do it. The Cooper S, as girly as it is, is one of the funnest cars I've driven. As long as you got a grocery-getter / people-hauler, you're fine.So I went to the dealership the other day with my friend so he could order a S1000RR... it made me really want to get one now as well. To sum things up, I am considering selling my car, and get a new Cooper S and S1000RR to replace it. Both of them new will come to about what I paid for my car originally... what do you guys think? Will I regret it? The Bimmer is great here in Germany, but I am moving to San Antonio where I will have way more riding time per year on a bike... Pros and cons?
I just got brand-new tires on my Daytona:

Have to sell mine first regardless.There's nothing Girly about the S. Just get a masculine color and all the aggressive-looking options. My Cooper S is sooo masculine. Lol

Whats a cager?

mike the snake wroteHow does one learn without actually riding?
I had a guy recently on a dual purpose bike just BARELY make it around a turn in front of me. I actually got his attention, got him to pull over, and I told him about countersteering (which he didn't know about, he bought the bike the day before) and told him to go take the riding course to actually get his licence. To me, he had just a few more turns before he was going down for sure.
The state riding course is good, experience is good, track days are good too.

I especially liked the KTM RC8. Never seen one in person, VERY cool.

justinnum1 wrotewhen i was younger, i used to think i was the only one who brought his bike into his apartment. but once you lurk around the forums long enough, you'll see almost everyone has done it...On your carpet? lol
anthony @ eas wroteThat thing is beautiful. I have thought about going after one of these or something that balances performance and rider friendly nature over trying to be a hero with the fastest bike.My 2007 Triumph Daytona 675
