Your cross-posted anti-cross-posting rant is not relevant here. Please
**** off to alt.irrelevant-crossposting where your sort is tolerated.

All the newsgroups are motorcycle related. That's makes them
relevant. Your reply is crap and a waste of our time. It was
also cross posted.
I like the new VMax.

Not to mention the fact that multiposting is BAD.
If you MUST post the same article to multiple groups, crossposting is the
way to do it. Multiposting just dilutes the discussion, and for people in
more than one of the groups posted to, it ends in difficult to keep track of
conversations split 5 ways where 1 would've been better.

There is no best brand or model in the 2009 range.

They're either crap and/or underpowered (eg. 09 gixer thou, all Hondas)
or too expensive for me to care one way or another (eg. Aprilia RSV4) or
both (eg. all Harleys and Ducatis)

I'd quite like a derestricted MC28 though.

So I guess you wouldn't like the Guzzi V7 which isn't underpowered or
under braked for what it is. Nor I suppose you'd like the Gixxer 750
because...well beacuse it really doesn't have a race class and doesn't
need one for that matter.

> I'd quite like a derestricted MC28 though.

No thanks. Nice stats and all that but it and many of it's type leave
me cold. If one were to go your route...well I still like my choices.
Between the two you can go anywhere do most anything. 8^) But hey what
would I know when I was younger I would take either my T-500 or a
buddies anemic RD400 down dirt/clay/sand roads at the posted higway
speed plus a bit for good measure. Not to bright I admit but quiet
dooable. Mud was even more fun on those 2smokes. At least with the
zuki' I didn't worry about being on pipe...it pulled everywhere.

So to stop now...gimme a 500 2smoke over any choking 4 stroke you
like.

I had a GSXR750 for a while, traded it in six months ago. It was fun,
but lacking bottom-end grunt.

Me too. One of the bikes in my garage is an RGV250.

There's an easy answer: have both.

Normal folks would want a late model 2-stroke and a late model 4-
stroke, both of them *running*. Butt Sniffer has a 1979 Old Wing and a
broken down T500 and a broken down LS650 Savage and an old DR350 with
a beer can muffler...

But he can dream and rant and rave...

Oggers, why are you toying with the septics and convicts? You know
you'll never get an intelligent comment from either sort.
