I was a dumb ass for taking over payments on it but o well, you live and you learn. Now i have a 05 gsx-r 600, fits me so much better i can lean easier and hold the bike up easier. Considering i am 170-175 pounds and a little hair under 6'. either way i dunno i learned on a sportbike and im still here. maybe im lucky i dunno. i never tryed anything i wasn't comfortable with. now as far as popping wheelies, i enjoy doing them a little in my subdivision. i can do this cause its a new subdivision and there are only 3 houses. i live at the end where the straight is . anyways not on public roads with a lot of traffic. i ride with gear. Now as far as stretching a bike, i see no problem with it if you like it. but please don't try to to act like your a god or some bad mo fo cause you have a huge stretch. thats all. i plan on buying a 00-03 750 or 1k later on when i can afford it and put a 6-8" stretch just to cruise to work and back on and keep my 600 for the fun. call me a squid if you will but hey its whatever.
Lol reality? I've been in reality. I never said I was going tomorrow to get one. I said in the future. I've slept in my car for weeks at a time when I was laid off and lost my place. Nothing new ti me if I have to again. I've slept on floors, couches, wherever I could. Nothing new or a big deal. You do what you have sometimes. But again, I NEVER said I was going to go buy one tomorrow or next week. I simply said I was looking at them and looking at buying one in the future. If you don't like what I say, don't read it. Simple as that. No one forced you to read anything I wrote.

And.... no one forced you to start this thread so if you don't want negative comments, don't start a thread. See what I did there?

Leave the guy alone and dont feed the troll. Simple.
The OP could have written his opening remarks in a way that wouldn't be misinterpreted. That's almost impossible considering how people react to what's written. (Including me)
Instances like this remind me of what I learned in the military that applies to life:
"Say what you mean and mean what you say."
As soon as the OP read the intent of those replying, he should have squashed it. It's something we all have to learn and do learn while on this site.
Just that you guys started pouring in and went after him rather harshly for that one statement. And if he wasnt trolling in the OP, then he clearly started trolling afterwards and you guys kept feeding it. Just saying.
2 points here
1. He was already told once it was a bad decision, and he didnt argue it, so anything after that wasnt neccessary(spelling?). Its like you guys were pissed just because.
2. Sometimes the joke isnt the idiot posting, but the other idiots who are going to tell him otherwise, call him out, and bust his balls. <-- This is the joke. Thus dont feed the troll.
If that was his intent. Then you guys got played, not him.

Re: Been a minute..
It's not easy finding genuine people in life let alone on any forum. It's a bigger challenge to control the things people do on here too. That's why I'm glad there are Guardians/Defenders to weed out the bad apples.
Shame that people get played but that's what I'm learning happens on here.
Thanks for your respectful feedback. You seem to be one of those genuine people I would consider a friend.
