You dont need to buy a V8 if your such a stickler about the gas. do what I did, and get a V6. iget about 340-360 around town, and about 400+ on the highway. they look great, and are great on gas. The problem with the bike is you'll spend all that money on something that is seasonal, and thats even if the weather is good enough out to ride it. Raining? forget about it, and the way our weather paterns have been, it might be a wet summer coming up. The insurance isnt bad on bikes, so. If your looking for a cruiser, want to look good, and start to get aquainted with a F-body, get a V6, if you want to race your friends, get a V8, and if you want a bike, think about that you have to buy all the gear too now, AND thats if that little thing inside ya doesnt make you wanna pull that throttle a little more then needed. They are faster then a V8, which makes you more prone to a ticket at your age.
