Ive got some spare cash to spend and i am in two minds what to buy.

Its a toss up between a 3dr cossie mmmmmmmmmm.

or a brand new kawasaki zx6r as in the piccy.

I think i will get the bike .............but ...then again ....

Anyone on here got both? (bike and cossie)

Wish i could have them both

 

i dont have new ninja, but i do have a yam thundercat...


and im building a 3dr lol

if the car is as quick accelerating as the bike then im on to a winner...

but if not, you cant beat a bike for out and out speed

 

Bike

 

I keep going down the kawasaki shop to drool all over it , the guy must think i am a nutter.
butttt ive always wanted a 3dr .
Anyone know of any nice 3drs up for sale??

 

I had an R1 and my only Cossie experiences are my mates Saph's and 2 Escort Cossies(all stage 3)...... tough one really but I think if it was me then I would have a bike. However you probably get a lot more use out of 3 door......... If it was an Escort I would have that EVERY time. Other thing is the bike will lose money like mad, bikes are replaced so quick now, the 3 door should hold price and maybe go up.....

Sorry can't really help much but that's my opinions. Bikes are bloody great and learning to wheely is one of the best things I can ever remember(some say it's showboating but once I had learned I couldn't care who could see me and would do it in the middle of no where as the feeling is second to none!!! )

 

bike.

 

I have a pretty sorted stage 3 saff cossie and a gixxer 750.

If i had to choose for you which to buy i'd say 3 door!

If you're set on buying a bike why buy brand new? I'm so against it its unreal Let someone else lose the vat and add a few goodies then snap it up cheaper after 6-12 months

 

I never notice you're car under your name, you have a 4x4 saff?? If thats the case i'd buy the bike LOL. No need to have a saff and a 3 door is there!

Ideally sell the saff and buy a 3 door and a bike

 

I sold the saff last week mate.
Originally for a bike but i keep thinking about 3drs.

I see what you meen about buying new. I just thought sod it , ive never had any new vehicle in my life and ive got the money. But i will have a look around ... if i dont buy a 3dr.

 

if you buy a bike it will loose money and you will sooner or later hurt your self lol

 

Bike. all day long

The cost of running a cosworth will easily outpace the depreciation and running costs of the bike

 

what about the money you loose when you spend weeks in the hospitlr due to the bike

 

If you are the sort of poof who worries about doing things because they might be dangerous then don't go for either.

Go buy a Volvo

 

money would go on the bike, to keep with that on the road or strip you are looking at 400+ bhp, about £10k worth of motor maybe? Bike
I have a 750 GSXR and a Stg 3 sapphire cossie, bike would leave it for dead everytime, it is only a matter of time before you come off a bike though IMO so far, usually not your own fault either

 

I love all things dangerous.

 

3dr over any 600
If it were a new blade tho it would be diffo, esp now the suns out

 

me to iv been riding bikes since i was 3 and my last bike was a 300+bhp r1 turbo and before that i had a k4 gsxr1000 and a zx10r just taking the piss but on a serious note i would rather have a good 3 door cos you get to scare more of your mates at once

 

A mate of mine has just been put in intensive care with his leg smashed to bits and severe head and neck injuries. He was riding a cbr600...

Buy a cos at least you've got 'A BIT' of protection

 

just do what im doing. Bike engine in a car. using a zx10 lump in a Onyx Mongoose chassis (see sig). 350kg and 140bhp=brown pants

 

zx10 is way more than 140?

 

Ave got both and love them

 

Using a 88 zx10 around 140 when de-restricted

 

Ha ha, I knew you would crumble at getting another Cossie..


I am scouring for a 3 door at the moment for myself, or I may just let you buy a minter then buy it off you when you want a bike again

 

A good mate of mine keffed it on a bike, de-capped,
Wont stop me buying 1 though.

 

ha ha I am going to see if theres any good uns for sale at the pod. If i have no luck then i think i will buy the bike.

 

fairy muff

Now a proper 10R engine at 180bhp is what you REALLY wanted

 

bike

 

car and stay alive

 

my cousin died on one I got one though.... not everyone dies on bikes otherwise thered be no old gits riding them...

Went to bikers cafe at sherburn up here last year and i couldn't believe all the old giffers blasting in on R1's etc

 

very true .
i think people are too busy playing with gagets in cars these days and aren't aware of bikes around them ,
the new bikes are soo quick aswell! quite easy to push to your own abilility and over and off!
i think they demand total respect!

 

Bought this in the end....
and boy does it go

 

nice one, you will enjoy it Im sure. I still like the style of them, pretty chunky.

 

your a brave man calling jacko a puff.....

you will have to meet him one day, or better still go and watch him cage fighting



steve

 

TBH thats rst money not 3 door cossie money!

 

Thanks for stateing the obvious

You would get a dog of a 3dr for 2k
