That's odd, but I guess it depends on what you're used to driving.

I've got a supercharged 4Runner that felt decently quick. However, when I mash the gas in the Challenger and row through 1st, 2nd, and 3rd, I actually giggle like a school girl. It's just got so much torque.

It's a miracle I haven't. I figure I've pushed my luck long enough, but you wanna talk about acceleration! Try 0 - 120 in about 8 seconds tops if you can keep the front end down.

However, it's the curvy roads that are a real blast. Chicks dig it, so somebody buy this thing before I change my mind!

Thanks, I've really enjoyed it. One of only about 1400 made as it was a special edition put out by Honda as a replica of their MotoGP bike.

I used to have a group of friends to ride with, but they've all got into racing or moved on and it's just not as fun by myself. I've not ridden it in about a year and it just sets in my garage covered up.

I know it. The economy must really be in the crapper still. I've even dropped the price by $500.

Alot of people cut out toys from their budgets in a recession. I wouldn't worry too much if you can't sell it right now. With it being so limited, it's probably not losing value by sitting in storage. When the economy picks up, you should be able to sell it pretty quickly.

Yeah it's not costing me anything so it's no biggie. I may start taking the hop up parts off and selling those separately and return the bike to stock and put it back up for sale in the spring.

I'd do that because you'd never get your money back off them if you sell it with the bike.

Very true. I was trying to sell it as a package because everything was tuned to work together, custom dyno tuned, etc and runs strong right at 160RWHP and 81tq. But if it won't sell, then I'll just part it out.
