sport bikes arent really good DD imo. im on my 3rd sport bike and use them to go to school and/or work. unless you do all your maintenence on it, it can get pricey to maintain and the newer the bike the more its set up for a race track and not the road. the tires last around 5-6k b/c they are soft compounds and not everyone can change a motorcycle tire. oil changes are also pricier and valve adjustments are required around ever 10k miles too. if you arent an expirenced rider and it rains where u live i wouldnt recommend riding period unless you wanna go for a slide.
now im not saying dont get a bike b/c they are great and they get good mpgs', just with sport bikes, DD isnt a design priority vs shear performance.
and yes, sport bikes will own just about any car on the road =)

I realize its been a long time since I've dated (anyone but my wife) but yes I did. I get comments on my Mustang all the time. From kids who love Mustangs to girls at the fast food window. All you really need to separate yourself from the pack is a set of wheels and cat-backs. I realize that a Corvette or a Viper would be better, but a Mustang has to be better than a go nowhere fast Honda. (Assuming, of course, that the Mustang has been well kept and doesn't look like it came from a demolition derby.)
