As many of you know, I've been wanting to trade my motorcycle (2000 Kawasaki ZX-6R) for a foxbody for a while now. Well, I am in the process of selling it and then planning on buying a really nice notch, but I'm having second thoughts...kind of. Don't get me wrong, the car is sick as hell, but so is my bike (at least I think so [Big Grin]

) I know the weather is gonna be better soon and riding the bike would be real fun, but crusing around in that notch would be sick too [burnout]

Im a broke ass student so i can only afford one toy...what should it be? [Frown]

well you have been tryn this long mine as well get it! if u pass it up you'll be stuck when it comes time to look for another stang!

Will either be your only vehicle? IF so, get the car. It sucks having just a bike in the rain/cold. If you already have another car, well then it gets more difficult.

get tha car..cars are sometime harder to get..you can always do what i did..get the car and then when u want get a bike.u can easily get a bike for like 100 amonth..which aint much at all [patriot]

Posted by SydeWayzSix (Member # 2222) on :

no the bike nor the coupe will be my daily driver. I have a 4-banger BMW for daily use. The coupe will be my "project car"/toy...which is what my bike was.

Posted by mustanggt5091 (Member # 444) on :

They are two different things, you need to decide what you want. Me, I would keep the bike. No smog, cheaper to run, dont have to worry about street legel or not parts really, Im a broke student as well!

Get the Mustang.

Posted by 88DroptopGT (Member # 2535) on :

Bike is faster, cheaper, and higher on the fun scale.

Posted by SydeWayzSix (Member # 2222) on :

the bike is faster and funner, but I dont ride it as much as I would like to. The notch, on the other hand, would be really fun to drive and i can actually use it more...damn its a toss-up between everyone on here [Confused]

Posted by CobramanPhil (Member # 2170) on :

If the bike is mainly for transportation, street rides with the rest of the squidlies on 9, or whatever then keep the car [Big Grin]

If your a bike-track junkie and go to say....5-10 trackdays a year with a track school thrown in somewhere in between then keep the bike.

get the notch....streetbikes are a dime a dozen

....my bike isn't a dime a dozen [burnout]

Just get both. [patriot]

Posted by SydeWayzSix (Member # 2222) on :

Thanks for teh suggestions guys. I see it this way: My bike, although it has a lot of mods, is definitely a dime a dozen. This nothch on the other hand, is REALLY clean in and out, has a clean title, and the owner is a cool ass dude. Now thats rare [patriot]

You made the right decision! If you can only afford one toy definitely go for a cage! You can always get a bike later on!!! Just my .02 My bikes they come and go.

i want a street bike but i think i'd take a clean ass notch over a bike.that's my .02

Posted by SydeWayzSix (Member # 2222) on :

Thanks for all the input guys. I know I'm still having some 2nd thoughts about it, but I'm sure once that notch is in my garage all the 2nd thoughts will vanish. I can't wait...notch, here I come [patriot]

if your too broke, i would stick to the bike, because of rising gas prices, but if it was me and my situation, i would have both

i know gas is rising and all, but I dont plan on using the notch for commuting or anything. Like the bike, it'll come out on the weekends for some fun [burnout]

I wish i could keep both, but I cant [Frown]
