what do you call this thing again?

[Kham]

very cool to see one one the road. dudes were getting off 128 onto 93s.

[Jim]

i saw them getting on the highway today leaving quincy. maybe not them, but that ugly ass bike and a GSXR with him

[Mr. Kurtz]

It's a GIXXXER. Duh.



Oh, you mean the first picture...

It's a Can Am Spyder, they're kinda cool looking, I've been seeing more and more of them lately, a few of my customers have them, and they have all good things to say about them. Most of them are cruiser riders though, so I'm not sure how fun one would be coming from a sportier motorcycle.

The vehicle in the top picture is called a Can-Am Spyder...


The vehicle in the bottom picture is called a 2006 Suzuki GSX-R600...







I know... I know... The second one was kinda hard. Thanks to my keen eye and attention to detail, I was able to recognize it and solve your confusion...

[MattyC]

ha ha ha.

how do you know? must be you on it.

[GixerJockey]

Nope... Unfortunately, it's the only one I DON'T have in the stable...

[nilez]

wwooooowwwww... I was riding alongside these guys for about a mile before getting off 128 onto 93 N today. You must have snapped this photo just before then. Did you by any chance see a red gsxr and a black R1??? We were on our way home from White Horse Beach in Plymouth last night CRRAAAAZZZZYYYYY PARTY DOWN THERE

EDIT: oops nevermind. I just realized you said getting off of 128 and onto 93 S. I saw them getting off 93 N onto 95 N around 1ish. But definitely the same guys no doubt.

[spydah]

I believe its called "I can't balance on 2 wheels"

[cbr_chick_nh]

Nice...

[spicy]

the more pertinent question is: will it wheelie...?

[cbr_chick_nh]

LOVE THE PIC SPICY!!!!!!!!!!! LOL!!!

[breakdirt916]

a $15k POS in the first pic, a seafood machine in the 2nd

[DuncanMoto]

That thing is not even close to a motorcycle. It is much more like a snow mobile with wheels on it. I found this video of it being tested. It even sounds like a snowmobile and it's made by Bomardier. I certainly cannot believe that anyone would pay $15,000 for one. I mean you can buy a 1098 for that kind of money......

Not even close.

it was around 11am in woburn. i was trying to catchup with them in my civic as the pair of them were getting on 93s. good thing there was traffic slowing them down a bit.

i wouldn't mind being seen on that thing.

[wingerdor]

I call Shenanagins on that video. Complete BS. It has traction control and won't do what they show it doing! They disabled it for the promotional video, but it's impossible for owners to disable it!

I'm sure someone will eventually make a kit, but they integrated the TC into the computer so it disables the vehicle if you try to bypass it so it won't be easy.

[Ericthejet]

I saw one yesterday on the 103 going south in VT near chester.
Also saw a Burgman 650 with 3 wheels out back to pull a trailer. ???

[G21forme]

FTW

[GixerJockey]

No. I tried...

It doesn't do burnouts or allow you to slide the rear end either. Stupid traction control takes all the fun out of things...

[Mystic]

just got back from Florida and saw a few of those Can Ams down there looks like a popular bike down there and that pic is the first i saw of one up here

[wicked13]

I thought they were neat. But I saw one the other day and the guy riding it looked ridiculous trying to steer it. Doesn't look natural at all. Maybe he was still new to riding it?
