i came VERY close to ditching the stang about 2 years ago. I went in ready to sign the papers and the salesmen didnt pay any attention to me because i was young, i waited over an hour without anyone coming to talk to me, so i left. Glad i did. I had been riding a friends 06 GSXR 750 for a summer, and wanted one. Looking back now, i'd probably be dead, or not have a licence. I'd rather have the stang. The stang goes plenty fast but is much safer and more practical. Bikes aren't transportation. Just toys. Since then, i have been first on the scene of 2 bad bike accidents, and i dont think i'll ever get one now. I watched a girl fly over 100 feet with arms stretched out like superman, and crash head first into a pile of rocks after taking a corner way too fast and smoking a 4x4 post at over 100km/h
