Outside on break today, beautiful day, about 55 degrees and sunny.. talking to a coworker who's BF is in the bike club I ride with from time to time. He's got an 05 Gixxer 1000, nitrous, steel braided lines, air shifter, lowerd, the whole 9, beautiful fast bike.. but anywho, she's never ridden in her life save for on 4 wheelers now and then and all off the sudden she comes up to me today and says "Hey guess what", Im like, what ? I just bought a bike!! Im like REALLY ? as my interest is now peaked... yeah I finally decided to start riding, Im tired of being left out from his bike stuff..blah blah blah.. so I went out to ray wilt honda/yamaha/suzuki ( one of the local dealers around here) and put money down on an '06 Pearl White HAYABUSA !!!
I told her I said, and keep in mind I know this girl fairly well, Are you freekin nuts !!! I proceeded to tell her how this bike will top 200 mph right outta the crate, fastest production bike, not a good starter bike, insurance will be thru the roof, etc. She's like nah I can handle it, Im a girl and dont have the need for speed and the ego to boot like the guys do. I just want a hot bike !
I told her you really outta consider starting out on a much smaller bike, and a pre owned one at that to learn on, take the MSF course, you know all the usual talk you give to a prospective new rider.
She was hearing none of it. " I want a busa, its pretty, and I got it, I can't wait to ride"
UGH !! Im just hoping I dont come to work one day and read about her in the morning paper.
