are you people retarded? v twins are the shit- super torquey and lots of power for a new rider. telling the op to get a (first) bike similar to yours because yours does a 10 second 0-120 just speaks to how bad the advice is that you're giving.

Meh, it's not like 100+ bhp is uncommon these days. You get that kind of performance (in a straight line) from a cruiser too. And V-twins sound like tug boats, sorry. My favorite tug boat is a late 90s TL1000R. And comparing it to my fav late 90s ZX7R (I like the 90s...) it's really no contest. Even when comparing it to, lets say, a Ducati 1198 which is really beyond Visage pay grade.

The nicest tugboat of them all:

Not a tugboat:

Like I said, the power in those two is pretty much what is expected of a modern cruiser. I bet you're just pissy cause your first bike was laughed at [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.].

I suggest an 04-07 GSX-750R.

Its easy to strip, not new so when you low side it you dont go broke, light so easy to flip for corners, pretty quick, ideal track bike, fairly cheap, easy to add shit to it, common so easy to get parts...

I'd suggest what's in my sig. Its manly, fast as hell, sounds great, the ladies love it, and it isn't a bike, which most are gay.

You just have to pay 50$ in gas a week.

TL1000R is what I was thinking of earlier.

Either way, prepare yourself for a wreck. Cause they happen. My buddy hit the base of a road construction barrel about a month back (ring had gotten in the middle of the lane of a highway) and he is going to have scars from his knee to shoulder from the slide. And that was only at 55mph and in decent gear.

Another guy got hit by a truck around the same time, he had stuck the nose of his bike too far out trying to see around a cage when making a right turn... truck clipped his bike in the front 1/3, and killed him.

Shit happens.
