COME ON HOUSTON. Stop acting like Florida. You’re not gonna get a Disney park. I know you miss Astroworld, but just stop.

Bought my first bike yesterday (15 FZ-07). You post this today.
Going to go try these speeds at lunch....
Or never. Just the video scares the shit out of me.

Track days are arguably more safe than riding here in Houston.

Yes, this is what makes this funny. I guess growing up in a small town with wild life I’m not as concerned about the handling. Though I’m not a dumb enough drunk to do it myself I wouldn’t think twice about getting a dumb friend to do it.

A good prank would have been to put the alligator in the friends car, or tied it to the car

Makes note of Farscythe’s name. Must never invite to racing series.

*Proudly raises hand*
I’m an adult and I can buy what i want. You should see my man cave.

Depends on the model you get, the auto trans was trash, which is what I bought for the wife. The engine wasn’t designed for longevity, we had the r53? Ithink? Anyways we had a supercharged one. the harmonic ballancer pully was designed to fail at 80k, and it was NOT a cheap replacement. Also our transmission grenaded…

Its kinda like the F-Type and GT-R had a baby

“a ‘suped up’ red Mini Cooper with enhanced suspension”

*invests in upper strut bushings*
Seriously they’re the weak part of that car.

Hmm... A “G” naming scheme? How long until the rebrand into a “Q” scheme and confuse the hell out of everyone?

Dear Florida,
Consider this our official annexation application.
Sincerely,
Houston

Chevette, it had my vote before I even got to it on the page.

Trying to figure out how something blatantly unoriginal won COTD.

Me: Yea! Le Mans is coming up. I love Corvette, but Ford is back in the game this year. I always root for Corvette, maybe this year I root for Ford, even though I know they can’t go the distance.
Justin W.: Ford is only making 500 cars. And they pick who gets them.
Me: F**K FORD. YOU CAN SUCK MY ****. CORVETTE ALL THE…

Yeah I could see myself getting a supermoto for my second bike. More for a fun weekend bike instead of a commuter.

Don’t supermotos have dirtbike like engines? Don’t they typically need servicing way more often?

So you’re saying you follow motorcycle journalism? Hmm, ever thought this article wasn’t aimed at you? Ever thought to just not read it?

Now, as someone that IS in the market for their first bike I’ve read MULTIPLE “first bike stories.” The newer the better as they’ll address newer bikes sometimes. I also have read…

Bad left is better than bad right. As long as you have decent mobility in your right leg so you can swing over a bike i bet you can find one that works for you.

Great! I’m actually looking to buy a motorcycle in June to supplement my aging shitbox of a car. This is my planned route.
1. Get Gear: Helmet, Jacket, Gloves
2. Take MSF/Get License
3. Buy used Kawasaki ER-6N from CL.

Seem like a good idea? Would you change anything there? I put gear infront of MSF so that I can wear it…
