    Thank you. It really gave me pause, I was in the middle of shopping for a new bike and it sorta stopped me in my tracks.

    Did a lot of thinking and realized I can't give up something I love this much, so I went ahead and got the new bike.

    Got an '09 (new in the crate) Yamaha FZ6R, figured I needed to get my squid phase over before I'm too old.

    It brings out my inner hooligan. All I can say is I'm SO thankful they didn't have these when I was 16, I had to try and kill myself on a 125cc Honda instead.
