Cool, douchey, or just plain stupid?

I don't ride myself because I'd most likely die on it, however I have a few folks I know that are avid bikers of the non-cruser kind. 1 owns a bmw the others ducatis (sp).

IMO while they are great on gas, if you can't ride it at least 2/3rds of the year, I wouldn't get one.

depends largely if you are a gigantic douchebag ON your crotch rocket....

i have 1 friend who has one and goes on serious rides with friends, goes to tracks, etc... she is cool as shit

all the cro-magnons who ride w/o helmets, jackets, pants and weave through traffic putting everyone on the 5 lane freeway at risk = douchey douche

    crotch rockets are a blast to ride, but most only belong on a track imo. there are a lot of riders who are mature enough to handle them, but they definitely attract plenty of uncool douche bags who are plain stupid.

    as a side note, i find it odd that any dumbfuck can buy a bike capable of doing a 1/4 mile in under 10 seconds, drive it home WITHOUT a motorcycle license and continue to do for for 30 days [in my state at least], yet our government is concerned enough about my health that i can get a fine for driving without a seatbelt... or arrested for smoking a joint. :nuts:

    That looks closer to a dirt bike if you ask me, which isn't necessarily a bad thing. I'd love a dirt bike.

    If you do get a bike, do yourself a favor and take the Motorcycle Safety Course (most places have their own bikes). It's well worth the $$. Personally, I would go with the new Harley Nighsters, they have a cool, understated old-school look.

    I rode my bike to work for a summer, but living in DC and riding a bike just isnt safe.

    sorry, my taste isn't measured by what chicks like. besides, it's generally the bimbos with fake tits who'd gravitate towards a crotch rocket anyway. i'll take the norton.

    Crotch Rockets. Owned a few. i dont drive like a douche however you tend to wanna whine the gears on those. I was doing that one fine summer day on one of the nice twisty roads we have here, Happened to hit a small patch of gravel with the rear wheel. the next thing i knew I was under a pick up and my right leg was and still is a mess.


    Go with the norton. Btw Chicks dig nortons for the same reasons they dig harleys.

    btw Nortons, triumphs, bmw;s etc being customized into Cafe Racers were the start of the rockets of crotch
    For you

    i don't really like crotch rockets :dunno: i think it's because they're too loud and mostly driven by jerkoffs.

      this also works if you replace "crotch rockets" with "harleys"

      harley or rocket, doesn't matter to me-- every time i hear one of those attention-whoring shitsippers open up the throttle i pray they meet a fiery dismembered demise

      cliff's notes: fuck almost all motorcycles and almost everyone that owns one


      also, for anyone that tries to counter with "oh but harley is a great american institution" - fuck you. their ad agency ghouls have been busting their synthetic balls for decades in order to craft that myth, and you swallowed it like a spermy beach slut

      fine, norton gets a pass, as long as they're not any louder than a sedan (never seen/heard one)

      love big engines and lots of noise. it's like an adrenaline rush sometimes just hearing them rev

      actually driving one is even more awesome~

      crotch rockets are ok if you live in winding hillsides but i really hate seein em drive around downtown or on the interstate

      i like the bikes like tossica and brinstar posted as well as harleys and bmws and stuff that are similar style. i'm not really a fan of choppers but i could see the allure of cruising around on one
