which do you prefer?
wide tire chrome rollers or lightweight performance bling?
I like a bit of both to be honest! fat tire 'Busas are a little played out, but short wheelbase 240's are nice. and anything carbon fiber sits well with me...

i lean more with the lightweight performance bling side of bikes. i like to ride everyday and i enjoy the comments about the peformance and sound of my bike over the people that see something shiny and automatically flock to it for only that reason. i like flashy paint but chrome and oversized tires are not really my thing. i wouldn't mind getting a 240 though. And for carbon fiber, i really like the colored carbon fiber bodies they make for bikes now.

anything overdone like a 360 and 85inch extended swingarm is lame, suttle clean bits of chrome, or even black chrome look good if done right. Contrast cut stuff is pretty snazzy also, Things like windshield spikes and tv's with gatling gun exhaust's held together by autozone flex tubing are depressing and looks like hot garbage.
I think it is OPP racing has a carbon kevlar r1 that is the bees knees, and looks sweet. I just don't like CF because it eventually looks like crap, no matter what you do to it.

First things I usually do to all my bikes is take off all the unnecessary bodywork, raise the back 1-2 inches, put on heated grips and fork boots.
I lean more to making my bike a utility tool. I want the performance of the modern sportbikes but not the seating position. A set of proper handlebars are on the short list too.
