The best kind of motor - a 2 stroke. Looks like maybe a 100cc or so.

That's not a moped. Small motorcycle, yes. Moped, no. Look for pedals - see any? Nope. No pedals, not a moped.

Anybody who sez you can't have fun on anything under 500 has never seen a Moto3 race.

Windows up and doors locked is the 1st rule of safe driving? And here i thought it was don't go any faster than you can see to stop. weak.

Yes. And since they hadn't attacked us (even GWBush admitted that there was no conection between 9/11 and Sadam), a war crime of the same sort (waging war of aggression) that we hung Germans for at Nuremberg.

They were a stable, modernizing, comparatively moderate kingdom until Dick Nixon and the CIA arranged for a coup in '73. Why? The king wasn't doing enough to stop the hippies from getting afghan hash. Will we ever stop stirring up shit that just makes more blowback?

...and American troops to try to keep them, too, iirc.

They're required for drag racing, but not for Roadracing. Go figure.

We told you this was going to happen before GWB lied us into war, and he was the one that signed the withdrawal agreement that the Iraqi government he installed passed. Next thing you'll try to tell us that Bush kept us safe from terrorists, too.

War of Southern Insurrection. It wasn't US soldiers that started it by attacking that fort in the Carolinas, no was it? Nice car, tho.

I realized my mistake just after the edit time ran out, thanks. It was a stupid mistake.

If it's south of the Mason Dixon Line, it's the south. The South isn't a monolith, and WV isn't much like GA, but it sure isn't Yankee-land. Yeah, I know WV and NC got started by dodging out on the southern insurrection, but that doesn't mean they aren't southern. Also, the midwest starts at the OH/PA border, and…

I remember riding in the hatch of a 240z as a pre-teen across one of the central park transverse roads, facing out of the hatch, and having the latch pop open over one bump, and bounce closed over the next. Good times. I also remember riding in a VW as a kindergartener - not tied to the back seat, just stuffed into…

MotoGP runs counterclockwise. These cars are going the opposite way down the straight from MotoGP.

This article would be much more informative if the pictures had captions, even just to say what aircraft is in the picture.

....and he didn't have anybody whispering pacenotes in his ear either.

Ok, my 2 cents is worth what you paid, but seriously, don't get a big bike to start. A 250 is a good choice, or a cheap used Ninja 500. Nobody (even Marquez) was born knowing how to ride, and for the first 10k miles you will be the biggest risk to yourself. A clapped out EX500 will do a 1/4 under 13secs and 125mph…

Nope. That one is all on the rider.

It's got a 45degree 2V pushrod, air cooled, non-unit construction engine w/ one intake for 2 cylinders. Looks like a Hardly, shakes like a Hardly. You can dress it up any way you like, but if you use a copied H-D motor to make a cruiser, it's a clone. Use it to make a dualsport, not a clone. Use it to make a…
