The only way i ignore the fuel rise is to think of the fun factor! stick wiv me it kinda makes sense lol.... yeah we all hav to go to work to earn our crust to hav our fun! and tbh we can all bitch about the fuel cost but its never goin to change! so unless we all drive at or below the speed limit n all own dreary fuel economical cars then well lets be honest life has to go on sooooo...... fill ur bike up ride for an hr n see how much that hr cost! ok so forget insurance, tax, maintenance n blah blah just put it to the test :) im guessin even if there were people out there that were to break the speed limit or even double it ( u may laugh but there are people out there doin such things lol) its not gona be much more than about a tenner n hr. Now come on a tenner for that much fun cant be bad :)
i know whats coming from all you harley and big engined bikers....
it cost me way more than that.... well u know wot ... slow down then :) only joking!
seriously tho when u bought ur bike u didnt think oh this is goin to be economical (NO) but wot u did say was man im gona hav me some fun :)
ive got a couple of toys and this is how i equate my fun lol....
v8 super charged jag £20-£25 per hr
ajp8 tvr £35- £40 per hr
4 stroke yamaha jet ski £15 per hr
600rr £10 per hr
so for as little as £80 i can spend n hr wiv each and hav the biggest cheesy grin on my face
SERIOUSLY THE PRICE OF FUN IS PRETTY CHEAP, JUST GO N ENJOY
PS for about £2 n hr theres such a thing as a yzf125r :) now theres some cheap cheap fun lol. had 1 and it just flat refused to drink anything :)
