Dang old fogies...Why would anyone over the age of 50 want a Hayabusa?
He fixed it and give the site some credit. It was better then I would of expected, so will give him some credit.UPDATE: I received several comments from Hayabusa riders regarding the statement, "When is the last time you saw an experienced 50 year old rider who owned a Hayabusa?" Apparently, there are many riders on the https://www.hayabusa.org site that fall into this "mature" class of riders. One reader from the site stated the average age of Hayabusa owners on the site is 43. The statistics for this article were generated from a USA Today article. The stereotype about 50 year old Hayabusa riders was added by me... apparently in error.
Thats response time right there.
Wow...Considering that I just found the article 5 hours ago, and posted in on here just 3 hours ago, that was a FAST correction !!!!UPDATE: I received several comments from Hayabusa riders regarding the statement, "When is the last time you saw an experienced 50 year old rider who owned a Hayabusa?"

Hey ,I live in Alabama and I am not a squid,I don't think,lol. I am 39I know he does have a point; we have plenty of squids here in Alabama giving us all a bad reputation. However, I think they make up the minority of our group. My biggest problem with the article though was the age thing. I'm 43 and the Busa rider who talked me into looking at one was 61 and I know plenty of other middle age + riders. Sportbikes are definately not ridden only by 'kids'. Maybe he just needs to get hooked back up with his cruiser buds, have a few cold ones and go for a ride.
thanks for the response...(and yes I was the guy that stated the avg age here) Hope you took my comments as they were intended and not an attack on your writing ability...UPDATE: I received several comments from Hayabusa riders regarding the statement, "When is the last time you saw an experienced 50 year old rider who owned a Hayabusa?"

Was probably my letter to the ed on that one, was not trying to start any trouble but having attended a number of hayabusa.org events, I could not let the generalization stand without comment, hell I figured I would be one of a dozen or more writing to the editor...."I wonder who"......... HAYABUSA.ORG BABY !!!!!!!
