I know it will hurt the mileage, but not as bad as a V8...  a V6 would n nice, but redoing the drivetrain is a bit beyond me.
If i said anything to offend u, plz ignore it.

also, if i say anything stupid or rude, it was probobly too late at night and i was half asleep, so ignore that too.

oh yeah, its all just my opinion, so if ya dont care, just keep it to urself, cuz if u dont care, i sure wont!

What does bike do well at? Obviously you've never riden one yourself with any amount of experience.


<S>...-Gixer

Rode Motocross in 125 then 250 class for several years in and around Phoenix back in '70-'72 ..usually placed in top 25 percent at the finish if some noob didnt just plain ol run into me on turn one.

-shrug- ..had a '76 Z Kawasaki geared, cammed, header, Vance and Hines toys on it.. ran ok, both pedals scuffed up from cornering as fast as it would go..useda love pullin some wannabe's chain on Hiway 2 tween I-5 and I-15, ..but hey .. you just keep on keepin on.
My Duster would blow it away in 1/4 mile.. and did after I sold the bike and raced him -evil grin-

I prefer a 'car' (specifically my Z-51 Vette) because it won't kill you to hit a single gravel rock in a corner, I can go faster into and out of said corner, I can go past 150mph without worrying about being killed by a bumble bee. .. among other things.

And yes .. I could turbo it, methane inject it, and run just a bit faster than <insert any similarly equipped bike> here -very evil grin-

I like that Hazzer :aok

My '94 Eunos Roadster, I bought it for my 50th a couple of years ago, just wanted something fun, cheap and economical for hacking round the countryside.

Thinking about putting a supercharger on, just need to work out how to do it without the Mrs noticing.

"Gas mileage" and "turbo" dont go together, regardless of displacement or number of cylinders.  ;)

I must agree.  17 MPG City  Maaaaybe 25 Highway.   No, not stock.  Makes for great fun when the kids in their imports with the fart can mufflers pull up.   She's a sleeper.  I'm half tempted to take the emblems off the back as I took off the spoiler when I bought it.





Then the wife had to get one.  ( I tried to talk her into the Charger R/T)

Holy crap Chappy.  What does that thing do ina quarter mile? Low 10's or did you break into the 9's.  With that nitrous you must be pushing 700hp.

Oh yeh, I drive a black 2005 V6 Mustang with the red leather of course and the only added stuff so far is lowering springs.  Damn the curbs.
