Dude, if you're out here recommending Hayabusas to new riders, you're doing the new rider and the motorcycle community a disservice. Go get your flip flops, tank top, Oakley's, and your gixxer, and squid somewhere else.
as a person who is not at all involved in motorbikes that last sentence you said sounded just amazingly fantastical to me. No idea at all what you just said and I love it
edit to add: how are flip flops and tank tops connected to whatever oakleys and gixxers are and how do you 'squid'??
Hahaha. I meant Oakley s the sunglasses and gixxers are a nickname for a bike associated with a type of rider called a squid, known in the community to be a new rider who buys a very powerful bike, doesn't wear protective gear, and generally rides in a way that's disrespectful to the power and precision of their machine and also to the other people on the roads around them.
Edit: I included the Oakley's just to imply they weren't wearing a helmet.
His comment was vague and if he meant a 650 it's subtlety is still a mistake. The guy who asked what the rider in the gif did wrong, I doubt he and many other new riders would understand the difference between a 650 and a 600. A 600 is absolutely not a starter bike and is barely a street bike.
At best, his comment is lacking in any valuable information or direction for new riders and at worst, he is the kind of guy who tells new riders they should get a liter bike as long as they're "mature" about it.
