I don’t know, shouldn’t the dopest finds be priced within reality’s bounds? For example: the Honda CB500X: in 2013, it sold for $5,999. It has NOT appreciated in value. And Honda has made many changes to the bike over the years since then, making it a true “light” ADV bike. NADA...I mean, “JD Power”... shows a retail a…

Wrong! You can get one cheaper:

The Brutale line starts at $20,000 for a 140 hp bike. The Brutale 1000 RR makes 208 hp. MV is a more bespoke line than Ducati or Aprilia. The base model F3 Rosso (800cc, 147 hp) is the least expensive model and comes in at $19,000.

That’s a useless comparison. Unlike motorcycles, supercars and passenger cars are not confined to any engine displacement or number of cylinders. Almost all sportbikes are built to fit in with homologated rules packages of various roadracing series. And for naturally aspirated engined motorcycles (other than the…

20,000-ish Rivian vehicles delivered and I actually spotted one in the wild today! And in my small city of only 35,000! And NOT in California! BTW: it looked nice (white with black trim).

Are you sure the Utah Motorsports Campus is being used for racing? They haven’t had World Superbike events there for years and went through a number of track owners. I know they weren’t even operating for awhile.

Since when? They are always trying to squeeze out a few more horsepower out of existing packages and creating lighter, special homologated versions to use in World Superbike and in national series around the world.

Those “Oleato” drinks are all abominations. I have to wonder how many customers have ordered one of these, taken a sip and said, “NO!” and then asked the poor barista to make them something else. Thank goodness I quit working at that hell-hole of a chain and don’t have to make those.

Dear Verstappen fans and F1 fans who aren’t Hamilton fans:

I am so grateful to no longer be a Starbucks barista and have to deal with such crap.

sybann,

I’m absolutely certain that it is short for the following: “Best [of luck with getting this shit done on time, you bastard/bitch!]”

Can I still use, “Blessed be the fruit”?

As well as in all personal settings, too.

Not so much choice as dumb-luck: I check out listings on craigslist (within 100 miles) every day just to see what’s up. This popped up, emailed immediately (even before researching the bike!), guess I was first person who sounded serious, traded some emails, a few days later rented a U-Haul cargo van, drove 125 miles…

Nice picks. I just got a (and can’t stop bragging about it) MV Agusta, too—2007 F4 1000 Senna. Although my other bike is just fine, a 2011 Suzuki GSX-R750, I’d absolutely love to have the bright yellow 1976 (7?) Honda 400-4 Supersport that my late friend owned many many years ago. I spent a week riding that Honda…

Counterpoint: Domino’s “pizza” (yes, in quotation marks) sucks at any price.

Passive-aggressive much?

Apparently you are a Zen master...
