    When the white-suit guy is walking down the corridor, he passes a poster for a “Houston Snuff Film Festival.”

    I, for one, am SHOCKED.

    It’s not a jump scare, self-referential, irony-laden horror movie in the 2016 sense, but it is a very disturbing and well-made film. Well worth the $20 or so I spent to see it in the theater.

    I find this is generally the case with all motor racing. Even when my friends and I are screwing around on 250cc Ninjas, you have to be serious about the preparation & safety because the consequences of getting it wrong are pretty severe.

    I was really disappointed at the end of Jason A’s email. I thought for sure he was heading toward calling Albert a “2-plus-2-not-knowing-what-the-fuck-it-is bitch.” You missed a golden opportunity, Jason A. Do better.

    Came here expecting another fire mixtape with Drake. This is bad Kinja.

    Should’ve burned down the house and moved on with your life.

    Lots of people left COTA disappointed today:

    How does it feel to go from being the Golden Boy of MotoGP to arguably the most reviled racer in the class (possibly tied with JL99)? Does it affect your mindset or how you approach your profession (on and off the bike)?

    “Stupid hurts.”

    If they’re stolen, the owner has most likely already claimed the loss on their insurance.

    Too rich and too hip for my blood.

    Hi, my name is Ed, and I’m a USMNT and Klinnsman apologist. This is my first time here, but I feel like you all . . . just know me.

    My dad’s Georgia SP 5.0 was slushbox.

    I can’t believe Coheed & Cambria sold all those albums, and dude is still driving a 99 Corolla.

    You know, I’ve never seen one of these cafe builds with slow motion sparks. These guys are breaking visual ground, guys. We’ve just seen the future of self-indulgent bike build videos.

    This is the kind of bike that inspires a truckful of Ed Hardy tweakers to point a gun at you. Caveat Emptor, etc etc.

    It will be a lot like the SV650 & the SV650S if it happens. Fairing, clipons, MAYBE different gearing.

    Every November, Jennings GP (north Florida) hosts a 250cc/300cc endurance weekend. If you want to assemble your crew of flunkies to take on me and my friends, I’ll have my B bike ready for you.

    I think the biggest issue with that is that the development cycle for a 600 isn’t any cheaper than that of a 1000; if we want similarly-specced and -teched 600s, they’re going to cost as much as a liter bike.
