i want a scrambler.

where do OCC's choppers fall on the diagram? are they considered bikes or art pieces? i don't even know

I always considered the 2008+ ninja 250r to be a sport. It has neither "clip on handlebars" or a "powerful engine" (relative to modern bikes). Kawasaki list it as a sport too.

Also: I'd consider something like a Bandit to be a "standard" type bike, yet in that diagram "standard" seems to be reserved for those big headlight jap style bikes.

It looks like a pretty good diagram though.

LOL. I would think art that has depreciated in value.

That's because this comparo puts 'sport' and 'supersport' into the same category. I'd label the 250 as 'sport' but most modern 600's/1000's as 'supersport' or 'superbike'.

It's all semantics really. We all know how special our ninjettes are at heart.

Yus! They need a special category for the ninjettes titled "really, really good looking and fun and awesome and probably the best of all the things"

I also agree it needs a supersport category. I think semantics are important!

No quick way for me to fix it, but I gave you an upvote at least.

IF13 · October 24th, 2013, 10:25 PM

Never heard of scramblers before but that bike looks fun as hell to ride.
