Need a Laugh?

Read this stupid article!

http://www.musclecarszone.com/brutal...08-ninja-250r/

Quote:
As it happens many times, great motorcycles and their owners often tend to prove themselves against a bigger opponent, usually some powerful four wheel machine. And most of the times we are watching that kind of a drag battle, more often than rare, bikers turn out to winners, even though most of the times they are fighting on the strip with some of the best cars like Nissan GTR, Ferrari, Lamborghini etc. But this time we have a little bit different scenario, as this biker and his 08 Ninja 250R is battling one big ass Dodge truck and makes a complete fool out of himself.

After you will watch the video, I think that most of you will agree with me that it is not only that the truck is so powerful and fast, but it is also very obvious that the guy on the bike does not really know what the hell is he doing. Maybe I’m wrong, I can not call myself a real expert on bikes and riding, but that is my impression from watching this video.

So it would be best if you also watch it and than tell me your opinion on the subject.

I don't think the guy who wrote this article realizes that the '250' in Ninja 250R is it's displacement.

I think the writer is more dumb than the biker. I personally would have thought my 250 could beat a diesel designed for hauling and not acceleration on the streets too.

This is not fair because it is a motorcycling, and not writing, forum. Some ppl are not first language English, and others are not Shakespeares. Do not for a moment be forgetful about this. A dumb ass on a motorcycle makes a fool of himself, and makes it memorable on tape. This fail makes every motorcyclist a moron by association. This is sad. Instead all day we hear complaints from grammar nazis who failed to take language comprehension 101 some time in their past lifes. Instead these nazis should roll the tape, hop on a motorbike and go beat a truck by speed. This shall undo the insult made to reputations of two wheelers with motor everywhere.

The author of the article has many articles to his name.. If he's written all of these poorly and with a potentially bad "language comprehension", than it is the employer website that is dumb.
