Now that you're a bikie KH, time to get with the lingo. Bikes are ridden, not driven.

There's just something about scuba that get's my pulse racing and makes me feel kind of at risk.

The shipwrecks? The cave dives? It's all awesome!

To me, 250 is a dirt bike, 6/700ish is a pocket rocket, and 1000+ is a true highway machine.

250 usually is most powerful in the 0-40 range, 6/700ish is in the 0-65 range, and the big machine are in the 30-90 range.

I'm not saying the 250 won't do 65, just has no nuts after ~40.

Just do yourself the favor and drive both (after your lessons). If you still like the 250 better then go for it. I suspect that you have a mind change. Anything bigger than 750ish is too much for a first bike, unless you are 6'4" 240 lbs.

Do you have either a car or a woman? Also, a porsche is just a car. Get a real job and get some perspective.

SC, one does not "drive" motorcycles.

Hmm. In the UK Porsche says "I am an arrogant wanker/bastard who works in The City". Would suit KH perfectly?

In America Porsche says "guy with ****ing cool as **** car." I don't know what crazy pills you all are on.

That's only true if age < 30 (for the owner) and no balding is going on. Otherwise, Porche = midlife crisis.

[regexcellent]

I'd go more with <40.

[MRT144]

Any sports car bought by a person older than 40, when they have no history of owning a sports car is a midlife crisis car. QED.

[Hauldren Collider]

Seems about right.

This is a very common misconception among people having or planning to have a midlife crisis sports car in their 30's.
