Seems like all I ever do is talk people out of buying bikes. Too many new riders get in for all the wrong reasons. I had a buddy who was looking at getting a bike. He had two requirements:
  • Needs to be red
  • Needs to be faster than any car on the road
Screw new riders like that. I didn't hold back when I told him to stay off bikes, you poser. I talked him out of it by simply saying no, I won't ride with you.

Riders who I consider true motorcyclists just want to enjoy curvy roads (or the track) and can do so on bikes that aren't horsepower monsters. They aren't out there for an image or the cheapest way to get a 2:1 pounds to horsepower ratio.
