            Tis' the season and one of these will fit under many people's trees or in a reasonably oversized stocking!

                better than your drift thread.

                I live in a cold place. I had learned of bmw motorcyclists, all year round. I never seen one, too expensive. Crazy motivation. Boxer balance never failed. As time went along, you get crazy engines , like in those tin cans in the vid. Cannot drive those crazy crack motivated bikes all year. I'd drive one in a little tin can. city go kart. There is a tiny feista parked next to my subaru. 12 inch wheels. When I am outside working, I have lost count to walkers approaching me thinking the little fiesta is mine, they want to buy it.


                I have never seen so many cold bikes in maine .. the fuel prices etc. must be the source. More Harleys than ricers.. maybe the big jugs on modern injection are doing good.

                anyway, I'd do the tin can motorbike. Treat it like formula 1, thermal monitoring on computers etc. My own boxer sounds more crotch rocket than boxer. All four fired, center cammed (very old 1781cc). Warms up like my neighbors Honda 700, 4 carbs. In fact I had to look outside once, thought someone sparked up my old sube...it was the old Honda bike in the cold.

                  As I said in the Bentley thread, if you can even THINK about it they've done it where they speak English funny and posted it on YouTube:

                    I used to ride a LOT but not much anymore. The bikes don't scare me, it's the drivers surrounding me while they're texting, doing their makeup (especially the guys), etc. Too many cars too little attention to the task at hand.

                        Boss Hoss insanity is getting too widespread for potential BangShift approval. They're on every corner during Bike Week in Sturgis. Donovans, Rodecks, Blowers, Nitrous, you know, BASIC STUFF!

                          If you can spec one out and order it, it's gotta be PRETTY SPECIAL for BangShift Approval.

                          Nah, doesn't quite "get it".

                            Now this has admittedly never moved under it's own power, but if it does, Chad and Brian will put it in the blog.

                              But this would require movement AND at least an 8 second time slip to make the cut, am I right here?
                              Functionality IS a factor.
