    I second that, The car doesn't need much work. Never have a bike without a car... and a nice car is a bonus

    I have to go with bike it's saved my ass a few times my control module for my flex-a-lite radiator fan just went out on me it's taken about to week to get the part just drove the bike I found a 03 r6 with only 6k for 4500. Plus I can't tell you how much the bikes saved me you have nice weather get the bike will save you gas money and when anything goes wrong you can take your time and fix it yourself, and you can wait for the performance parts you want and not just take what you can get in the car that day because you have to get to work tm plus you'll have two toys instead of one.

    Neither. Replace your master cylinder to make your car safe, and if your current tires are bald replace them with cheapies from walmart. Then with all the money you saved, invest it in something that won't depreciate in a year.

    ALWAYS fix what you have. Once thats fixed an out of the way, go onto something else. Theres all kinds of money that gets spent on bikes. Don't drive around neglecting your car bro.

    i myself wanna bike too, but if the car is your main transportation then fix it and make it safe first and foremost. then look at a bike next. have both and enjoy each one while you can then swap when one is down so you still have a vehicle to get around.

    Before I vote.........

    What is your experience on a street bike? Will this be your first?

    How many years have you rode a dirt bike?

    Do you actually live in the city? Would this be a means of transpo or just for leisure?

    This will be my first street bike

    I have ridden a dirk bike, not much tough

    I have another means of transportation



    The main reason I wanna get it is because I'm bored. cant do what I wanna do in the military yet. so I need something to get my adrenaline going.
    I'm scheduled to deploy in Jan( but you never know with the military, I've been set to go 2 times already and I'm still here) So I just wanna have fun

    i said fix the car but that's only cause i saw "master cylinder" on the list which leads me to assume that it's broken and therefor needs to be fixed.

    If its adrenaline you want the bike will do that a lot better then the car but if thats your reason becareful i love my r6 takes turns great but not as hunched over as the cbr's so when i'm cruising on the freeway i can sit up a little more easier on the back. Also I've have to say the r6 has more power my 03 r6 has more pull them my friends 07 600rr. I raced two modded gto's both 6.0's put 2 cars on them from a 65mph roll on the freeway just eased it into second and left them get the bike you want the power then fix the maro right after.

    Well with that my choice is put money into the car! Buy yourself a nitrous kit and you'll have more fun than you would on the bike not to mention will be safer.

    I pray you have a safe tour over their and make it back safely!
