Yep. I keep staring at those posts, but not because of the text in them.

Bikes are dangerous on the street anyway. Track the bike, street the car. Everyone wins.

That would be quite the adventure on my R6.

There is no replacement for a bike...as soon as you see one on the street you will want to be on yours. I still have my bike and every time I see one on the street I want to be riding.

Sold my 2007 CBR 600RR and bought the FR-S. After a year of driving the FR-S, I missed my bike so much, I got a 2007 ZX6R and abandoned the FR-S. Exactly a month ago, an idiot pulling a boat decided to take my lane without looking and ran me off the road. Bike's a total loss, body still black and blue, my clavicle's broken in 3 pieces I'm still recovering from the plate/screw surgery.
Now I can't ride my bike, drive my FR-S, not even my RAV4! People ask me if I learned my lesson. F@c& no! I'm now looking for the next bike! A triumph speed / street triple maybe, or a thruxton cafe racer!
Trust me, nothing replaces the fun that can be had on a bike. Sell it only if you're planning to upgrade to the new Z1K (that's one sexy bike!). The only time I'll stop riding, MAYBE, is if I can afford to buy me a super car, 458 italia minimum.

Street riding lost most of its luster once I started going to the track. It's still more fun than a car on the street, but you're at the mercy of a bunch of people who experience driving as a chore and would rather play on their phone or argue with their passenger than pay attention to the road.

I love track riding. However, I still can't get myself to just track my bike. I went over a year without a car, just had my 6R. Now that I have the FR-S, I still find myself picking the 6R over the FR-S. The bike gets better gas mileage, even when I have a heavy wrist I manage 40mpg. The acceleration is obviously better, and just the feeling of being on two wheels is hard to beat.

The FR-S adds versatility to my garage as I can get a whole weeks worth of groceries, take the dog somewhere, and various other tasks that bike is not made for. Plus it is nice having AC, a radio, and a roof for those central Florida rain storms.

Sell it. Your Obama mandated health care insurance premiums will be lower without the bike.
