Ever just want a nice MINT bike?
I was just curious how many people here own a MINT bike and one that they use for stunting?
And, those who just have one bike that is beat up from stunting. Do you ever feel the need to get a nice MINT bike to cruise on?

Re: Ever just want a nice MINT bike?
Right now my main goal is trying not to **** of the girlfriend by buying another bike! She was cool with three, but now she is really getting pissed off with 5. Actually I plan on selling the R1. I hope to have the F4i ready to roll within a week. It's rideable right now, but no headlights or tail lights - cops will bust me if I roll it on the streets.
You can see some pics of the bikes at my site, www.skurz.com

Re: Ever just want a nice MINT bike?
Me.
Not that I'm rocking circles or anything yet...but my minty '01 Gixxer 6 looks new. I actually have people asking me if it's an '05 or an '06. Now, obviously they don't exactly know what they're talking about since they look so much different from an '01, but the point is it still looks new. Just over 13,200 miles now, and more wheelies than I can remember.

Re: Ever just want a nice MINT bike?
I have a mint 900RR, but I never ride it. I take that back, I ride it about 3 times a summer, which totals about 500 miles per year. For some reason, I just can't ride like a normal person, so I always end up riding the stunter.

Re: Ever just want a nice MINT bike?
I only have an F4i which was in pretty good condition but now its turnin gangsta.
I could never rock a mint bike cuz it would just turn into a really nice stunt bike...ideally 1000RR caged with a dented in tank for mostly expressway shiz...thats my idea of a mint bike...oh yea with zip ties...cant forget the zip ties
