LOL just wanted to throw a thread up that wasn't the typical emo rage/rant material.

A change of pace.

I love the Kawi's as well. Have a friend here who rides a beautiful orange ZX6R. Drool!

What I really would like to see in my stable in the future would be a red Monster!

Buff the Dramiel!

There is always a better solution.

*edit*
Oh yeh - what do i do when im not playing EvE ?
I haunt YouTube a lot if im at the computer recording music from old media etc. Then theres going to see the maybe new Mum and Dad to be. I also can now, after a major few weeks in the garage fixing a rear spring that turned into 4 new springs and 2 new rear struts!, play with my Golf VR6. Va va voom.
I also cook a lot and there is now a glut of annoyingly good Science and History programs i like to watch.

I stand corrected, that is one crazy cage. I'm still not so sure about the rider but meh.

There is that. He didnt like say 'and heres valentino rossi to ride it!' and i persoanlly have a sneaky suspicion that was a crew bike riden by said crew member. However the Atom was only driven by Clarkson, a cut above the average driver im sure with all his track time but a normal guy never the less.

Id feel weird paying 30k for a pretty girder with an engine strapped to it but im thinking the first time my lips started to tickle my ear lobes id get over it

It was also notable the Stig couldnt keep the understeer on hammerhead in control, i think thats where the recomendation of the Big Brake pack came in.

Personally i love bikes/trikes, the more powerful the better... which is why i will never try to own one, for Clarksons 'reality' over the 'ideal'.

The Ariel Atom isn't a car; it's a rocket ship.

However awesome it is (and it is fecking awesome) it is not typical of cars and certainly isn't the tricked up MX-5 that one of the earlier posters reckoned would out perform the CBR 600 RR.

It also has a 0-60 time of 2.7 secs (manafacturer's claim) and tops out at about 140mph, so stand it next to a bog standard ZZR 1400 (2.5 secs 0-60 and top end of 186mph... limited electronically) and it doesn't look quite so good.

Had Top Gear run the same test using a BIG sportsbike (say a GSXR 1000... not quite as quick of the mark as the ZZR 1400, but much better around bends and with loads more mid range acceleration) the Ariel Atom would have been blown into the weeds, but they chose to use the standard plastic missile CBR 600, which is fast enough but not representative of what a proper big bike can do.

There's also the matter of price. The "cheap" version of the Atom is £20k+, and the supercharged monster over £45k. You can get any number of stupidly powerful hyperbikes for under the £10k mark now.

My own machine is an ageing GSX1100F (a lowly 130hp or so and considered a bit slow by modern bike standards) and I've only lost one drag race to a car since I bought the thing, and that was some heavily enhanced Porsche 911 with a turbo that sucked so loud I could hear it above the noise of my own engine and through a set of ear plugs. It did sound nice though... although feck only knows what it cost.

Fair play to the guy, but then my entire bike cost less than a set of brake pads for his Porsche and when we hit traffic up the road a bit, I was long gone whilst he had to wait.

At the end of the day it's all down to personal preference; I like cars as well, but I'm afraid that no car can compare to the personal freedom and excitement of riding a fast motorcycle. Others may disagree.

I play BF:BC2 with my corpies. Or work on my vehicle. Or attempt external socialization.
