Fuggit man, I'd ride both your bikes and drive your car and I'd go fast on all of them.
Though I do have to say I hate v's. But love rollin' fenders.

I actually like your bike a lot. Wtf? in spite of using every fgg cliche part, it looks totally fresh and individual. Could the anatomica be the magic part that makes this build shine? maybe it's that cool paint job? Regardless, good job man!

I've got an 89 325i I bought for $1700 a year ago. It's not as decked out as yours is, but it's always nice seeing a similar car!

your bike is pretty nice.
i'd like to beat on your car a little bit (at the autoX course that is). i bet it's really fun.
you should maybe thread your straps like this, hope you have a good balance because those are gonna be hard to get out of...

I think the first bike is absolutely fugly, and I love the second bike. Although I would ride neither, ever.
Enough hate?

I am curious why you skimped yourself so short on the tires on the first bike though...and why they're mounted backwards (as stated already and not acknowledged by you yet).

i have to commit keirin heresy and admit that i like the dutch rig better. but i'm definitely in love with your e30 sleeper— i was about 80% on a '76 2002tii/S14 hybrid deal when the seller backed out and decided he loved his car too much.

(got it from that fella in richmond,va )
yeah, i really dig the dutch bike too!
i looove the 2002s, but you're better off.. the 76 has the hideous bumpers/lights.. i'd hold out for a 73 or earlier. those things w/S14 motors FLY!!! but... my friend has a stroked 73 2002 that lays down about 200-220hp at the rear wheels, and it is easily as fast as my S52/E30.

Nice paint job, terrible bar/stem choice. Ride what you like, but I'll feel extra special if I see you crash.

I don't care wtf you ride or wtf you drive. The only reason I am going to hate on you is because you thought your bike was special enough to get its own thread. Well, it ain't and when you post your bike and your beamer in its own thread you are begging for someone else to repost them in the jackass thread.
End hate sequence.

some people on this board have bikes that cost more than my car.
and, last time i checked, the internet was a pretty big "place"... i think there's room enough for you to avoid opening, and then replying to threads you dont care for.. there's plenty of other s h i t to see..
get over yourself.. no one gives a **** what you think.
