ZX12 is alive and kicking

[OB_Coops]

Kong : of course I love to kick the ants nest and see the serious scurrying of all those who may become agitated. But seriously, as I have previously mentionned, I will wait until the bugs are ironed out. Travelling for 500 kilometres in Australia and having to push your new Busa 200km to the next service station doesnt appeal to me. I will also wait until I see the problems with the ZX12R before considering it. From my previous posts you will know my point of view. For the kneejerker responders out there, EAT me

That aboy Coops! Stand your ground. I do believe this forum is called "General Discussion" which does mean freedom of speech. I personnally love the Busa but whats with all the guys whining about people coming to this site and making fun of the Busa. There's nothing wrong with a little competitive arguing over brands and who's bike is better. Obviously everyone seems to love their bikes here. I notice quite a few Busa members showing up on the ZX-11 site flaming Kawasaki's. If your going to own the newest fastest machine expect to take some flack over it. Remember when the F body Camaro came out and everyone had a tough time excepting it but the diehard Chevy owners. But you just couldn't argue with the performance. Same goes for Mustangs and now everybody wants one.

Superman , you must not care about NOT fitting in with the boys, I respect that. Be prepared for poop to come your way from your so-called brothers, but I bet you dont care.

[OB_BUDDHA]

Mustangs??I don't.

To Kong, Buddha, and Mr. Bear. I enjoy having a couple of pointless arguements over these topics. Its all in good fun. Its not like anybodys getting hurt. We're just argueing about the Kawasaki- Suzuki battle. I'm not really a band wagon freak. I usually root for the underdog. Right now I'm hoping the ZX-12 will beat the Busa because it ups the stakes and this is for the Heavyweight title. We're not talking featherweights here, this is the big boys and the Busa is the champion right now. When someone comes out with something better then it will give me something else to argue about. Don't you just love saying to people "my bikes better than yours" and rubbing it in their face?

[OB_Mr Bear]

Kong baby, Coops and Superman are mature enough to realize that this is an internet chat list, there is basically nothing to be taken seriously about it. If they get ribbed a little bit, they roll with it and rib back.

When you-Jamie-Fitch get your panties all in a bunch over something so inconsequential, you ask to be trashed and laughed out of town...like putting a "kick me" sign on your own back. Who can resist?

My advice is to lighten up, toughen up, grow up...or run home to mommy.

Guys, how do you manage to degenerate every thread like that? Does it take a special talent, or what?
This is a ZX12 thread.
ZX12 - the fastest bike in the world, EVER!
Way to go Kawasaki!
Too bad it's still Science Fiction, while Hayabusas are all over the place

[OB_Kong]

Superman you have the right idea, guys like you are fun to bs with. I dont sweat the analysts. I have good friends that own many different brands and we never have problems. I myself have more than one brand. I guess you could say I just dont care what folks say or think. iam really a fun guy, I love bikes even Suzukis! Its just to easy to stir the pot! I do have more class than to personally insult people with my typing finger though, and more guts.

[OB_VegasDude]

Sniffle, This is all very, very, Touching...............

[OB_Mr Bear]

I agree Vegas, I think we should all hold hands and go out in the woods and beat drums and try to figure out if we are manly or not.

Kong, if you are so lighthearted, don't try to threaten to send people computer viruses. That's pretty lame.

Bottom line, Fellas; Kawasaki held the 'Meanest Road Bike' title for years, really owned it. Suzuki now has it, just as solidly. We do tend to be brand loyal, and the Kaw guys don't like seeing the Suzi guys do the touchdown dance in the end zone. Understandable, but hey...too bad.

Kong, look back up this thread at your post from 21 August, 10:54 P.M. You say the Suzuki guys have trouble facing reality. Well, you are hanging your hat on an until-now imaginary bike, the big ZX. The 'Busa IS reality. Who really has trouble dealing with reality??

We took your crown. That's reality. Until you actually have the hardware under your ass to take it back, that's the reality you have got to deal with. Until then, I suggest you take drugs.

WOOOOO HOOOOOO, Mr.Bear, Is that smoke i smell from a flamming someone just got??

[OB_maniac marshall]

Mr Bear, that was very very well put. I'm dying to see what reply he could possibly try to come back with.

maniac

[OB_Dirty Pete]

Mr Bear, was that the famous and oft times fatal "Bear Hug?"

[OB_Coops]

Nice comments Mr Bear. But just remember, you ride a Suzuki and you suck and my bike is better than yours. So there. My ZX16RT will fill your ramair tunnels with balls of rubber.....woops - just remembered that was a wet dream I had last night.
