    You know what bugs me?...........I think I agree

    I know what I mean but I can't think of how to put it so I'll conceed this one, logically a car will out corner a bike of the same standard.

    Dammit.

    Still more fun tho

    No thats true, a bike has more room to play with, but I think realistically speaking you have more chance of making a corner in a car if you hit it too fast than on a bike.
    Also when wet bikes are a nightmare.

    Hate to admit that but it's logically correct, I would like to see a test tho, of a car and bike of equal standings and respect in their respective catagory.

    Push the limit with a driver and rider of same skill, hit a 45 degree corner as fast as you can.

    Cool

    too many variables


    saying a car handles better on corners is like saying you know what christians believe in, or something

    the only thing which stops me from getting a bike is the need to transport stuff
    how come they never made an attachment with wheels behind the bike to put stuff in?
    (ive only seen the side wagon, or motorcycle-taxis in pakistan)

    It's been done, often. With a decent car and a top quality bike.

    The car wins.

    You can have a trailer on a bike.
    In the uk your trailer has to be to legal standard and your fixtures to the bike are included in your mot.
    Your insurance would be slightly higher too, but you can do it

    I don't deny that, but I have to take your word for it, I meant I would like to see a test.
    Not dissagreeing, I would just like to see one.

    You don't have to take my word for it mate, argue away.

    It just means that I will be right and you will be wrong.

    It's not an opinion thing, it's physics.
