Real I often ask myself this same question.
Why.
Why deal with having a ZX12R?
Insurance is too high.
If your really enjoying a ride and get a ticket, It could mean facing a 60+ year old Judge who has no perception of speed on a state of the art motorcycle.
Bike is just like anything else in life if its a blast. Then it costs way too much. Tires mods etc'''
A $20,000 Harley would be cheaper over the life span of the motorcycle. And more folks would smile when you went by. hell even bald fat old men get pussy with a Harley.
Hell even the Hayabusa guys deal with what we deal with and we don't hang with em. We treat each other like outcasts.
And sometimes we even turn on each other.
I'm a little confused as to why I even have the Monster parked in my garage. Looking at it in static postion gives me the wheelies.
Common sense tells me that it could raise its head and spit me off in a nana second. Or leave me in a wheelchair for the rest of my life sucking my meals from a straw.
When the tach is wound up towards the red and all you see is a blur going by your sides thats REAL. This is the only REAL answer I have. Common sense tells me to avoild the beast all together. But its like a bad women. You can't leave her.
Then somebody wonders why I go completey wacko from a remark. I can't be totaly stable in the frist place. Just because I own this beast. Thats real my brothers

Something else. We work on her and pour our hard earned money into her and she lets us down by droping a rod though lower case.
Its a nightmare and not just on halloween but every second its parked in your garage.
A normal person would say to hell with it.
