Competition package Toyota Previa.....yum.

I’m glad you didn’t!

My post was a bit of a knee-jerk reaction, I assumed he meant first bike since that’s what Kristen suggested for the Motocompo. I agree though, if you’re looking for a goofy little bike a Grom would be a much better choice.

Thanks for the thoughtful response! You sound like my kind of gearhead, my first car was a Miata and my third (current) bike is an ‘06 Speed Triple.

First “street” bike? As in, you rode dirt bikes beforehand?

Sorry, it’s a reflex.

I agree with the used car & bike sentiment, but only a massive dumbass would buy a 900RR as a first bike.

People sure do weird shit to try and impress each other.

He’s an amateur, a true meth head would jump the bike onto the Miata with a beer in hand.

He wasn’t even right, it has two clutches!

Power is meaningless unless it’s compared to weight. Modern cars are objectively more efficient when it comes to power per displacement, but power to weight ratios can be pretty similar to older cars, because new cars keep getting fatter. You can blame safety standards for that.

Why bother taking the doors off?

Sometimes, the irony is too strong for the universe to resist. RIP Deathkart man.

“Ghosting” or “ghost towing.” It’s supposed to look like you’re towing a heavy ass trailer, even when you aren’t. Pretty dumb.

Mitt Farrow!

Aside from the funky lights, you can pretty much buy one.

Concept

There was, and ho boy is it sexy.

Yep, looks like a custom build. I have a Camry, but if I wanted a homebrew Ute I think I’d use my other car.

I reverse searched, and from what I can tell it’s a custom build.
