So even a Suzuki Hayabusa would be referred to as a Ninja? Even though it's not a Ninja? And it's not made by Kawasaki? That's kinda like calling all small, economical cars Fits.

just wondering.

And if crotch rocket is a derogatory term for a sport bike now them I'm officially done with people. I'm 29 years old and wouldn't be caught dead on a Harley but I've always called them crotch rockets.

Crotch rocket is a term used by senior citizens and Harley riders (basically the same thing) to describe a sportbike, a motorcycle designed for performance and not riding around trying to look like Easy Rider while your "hog" goes "potato, potato, potato, potato..."

You give me too much credit, Max.... I rode a UJM (Universal Japanese Motorcycle - the kind the rest of the world rides to work and back every day) for more than 20 years. "Crotch Rocket" was a generic term for any sportbike - not derogatory at all, more jealousy.

At least you didn't say rice burner, a term Hardly-Dangerous riders like to use. Unfortunately, the tend to slink away when I point out all the Japanese-made parts on their "American" machines...

Get pictures of such thing I might drive yp there and get it and i am serious

bkndacn · 02-02-2011, 11:58 AM

@ jumpmanyaris : yeah if I dont end up buying it myself I'll def let you know. And send pics :)

The only thing that I know to be wrong with it is the drivers side rear bumper is banged in and will def need a new rear bumper .... When I talk to the guy I'm gonna tell him that I want my mechanic to inspect it before I pay anything because Ive bought a car before that ended up being more of a pain in the ass than anything else ....
