I think everyone will agree to the fact that a 10 in sensible hands is perfectly fine.
I think everyone will agree that moving from a 250 to a 600 first is a good idea.
I think that everyone will agree that there are too many young people killing themselves on litre bikes.
I think weveryone will agree that it is sensible and logical to recommend that you move your way through bikes at a progressive rates, learning new skills...
But bike riding is about love..... and love is never sensible, never logical and most people can agree to that too...
Just my 2c worth.

Awww, come on IK - we're only at 11 pages. There was plenty of life in this thread until you did that.

Don't go panicking just yet; I first used words to that effect back near the bottom of page 1...

11 pages of people going blue in the arse telling you that the problem are the misconceptions you have about riding, and you conclude that it's a ridiculous concept for a girl to own a 10...
Absolutely, who said anything about ladies/girls (sexist I think)/females/woman persons riding 10's. So long as they can fit it in around the home duties all should be cool.

Besides I reckon anyone buying a 10 has to be a fuckwit.....the only bigger fuckwits are those knobhead 12 rider's and, well as for anyone riding a 9 or a 6......
Think I'll run and hide for a bit now
...and Cath, you call me a moron one more time and I'll whimper alright...

We might need to see what we can do about that on the next Superdoopers ride, if not beforehand

Glen has raised a very good point...if u dont have time to do the washing,ironing and cleaning, AND make sure dinner is hot and on the table by the time Ross gets home (and we want variety- not the same shit every night) then really its not a zx10 u should be buying..in fact u should be selling ur zx2r to get a new Dyson cyclonic vacuum (much better and gives extra time for other chores), coupla bags of chux cloths, a washer/dryer combo (again saving time here) and maybe a fridge with TV in it (so u can at least have sum fun whilst baking)....
failing that, u could just jump on to adultshop.com and get urself a nice new dildo..so u can GO FUCK YOURSELF if u dont like my ideas!!
ok..ive had my little stress out now...

Boy.... are you guys in trouble

. Is Kellyville anywhere near Gundegai? We will be down there in two weeks and the missus is looking for blood
And Neka....don't think you are safe in Adelaide. We are visiting the rellies down there at Christmas time
Actually I just bought Trish a new vacuum cleaner so she might not have time to go on holidays now.

Neka - as always, you crack my shit up
Glen - very noble of you, but my riding skills are nowhere near yours - I've always respected your awareness and abilities. It's all that bloody maturity you have isn't it
MickC - I'm scared. And speechless. Not sure I'm worthy
I-K - I actually read Kristy's post as that she'd heard the sexist crap elsewhere, and came here (to ksrc) to ask questions, not that she was getting any sexist responses from here. I'm sure we'll get an answer on who assumed correctly next time Kristy posts though

Trivia: The tatt on the cartoon Boris' biceps says "Don't insult my mother".
Also, I wonder if the red-white-blue flag on his vest is a very unfortunate fuckup or a very deliberate pisstake; red-white-blue are the colours of the Croatian flag, whereas Boris is very much a Serb.
The red-white-blue is the actual colour of the Serbian flag.
The Croatian is the same but we have the crest in the middle.
And finally the Yugoslavian was blue-white-red with the star in the middle.
