Amen. No car can even hold a candle to the visceral power, skill, and beauty of riding a fast bike fast.

I have plenty of track madness stories, but I’ll go with the most recent.

2005-2012 Japanese Liter Bikes are the greatest performance bargain in the recorded history of Planet Earth. Reliable as fuck, incredible handling, cheap parts, mindblowing performance. Keep the fuel tank full, change the oil occasionally, and keep burning through tires with a big ass smile on your face!

Thoroughly shocked to see 40 Water posted on lame ass Jalopnik! Good job Orlove!

Three things.

Thank you! Will you idiots please stop dick-riding this lame ass dude!?

What I Ride: 2010 Honda CBR1000RR

Try a bike. Cheap as hell, simple, analog, open air, manual, authentically dangerous. Oh not to mention fast and fun.

Yer doin it right! I’m going out to ride NorCal for a week mid-july and can’t wait. I have had some of the best road rides of my life out there!

Shhhh... the lawmakers might hear you.

Most likely a cover for the huge airbox, velocity stacks, and throttle bodies.

Not on the brakes, yo. ABS not legal in MotoGP.

Phoenix, Arizona. Your photo looks a lot like Turn 3 out there.

Is that Firebird West?

You’re in the overconfidence stage... be careful. Beautiful bike!

I’ve got to agree on the SV650, but only for a coordinated and level-headed rider. It IS fast enough for beginners to get in trouble.

Bbbb-but... what about the DANGERS! And twowheelsbad! And other miscellaneous bullshit!?

Looks like they had fun, did it relatively safely, with long travel suspension, and in an isolated area with friends to help them out if needed. Cheap wheel broke. Buy a new one. Come back in a couple weeks and have more fun!

Number fucking one. MotoGP just does it better, baby!
