my girlfriend just gets off the phone with me and she is telling me that a guy at her work told her (because she somehow got into talking to this guy about what bike I am going to get) that the r1 is not a good bike that his f4i is a better bike and has my girlfriend thinking that I am going to get a bike that sucks and cant handle worth shit why do guys do this when girls tell me what thier b/f is going to get I dont say well tell him not to get that because my so in so is better. I just tell them that is nice he will enjoy it or something along those lines. why try to impress a girl by telling her some stupid b/s like that. :dunno
