Im not sure if these are fair comparison but this is what i think:

 

1. Lifestyle: Vespa - car equivalent would be MiniCooper/VW Beetle car

2. Offroad: Scramblers - car equivalent would be SUV/LandRover

3. Sports: Jap class 2 bikes - car equivalent would be Evo/TypeR/Sti

 

Do you agree?

 

pls feel free to add on

No more regrets.

4. Comfort: TA200/Shadow - Toyota Camry

5. Transport: GN 125/RXK - Toyota Hiace, Mitsubishi L200 (Seriously, have you seen along the older roads how some uncles riding these bike can pile their bikes full of stuff and still move)

"Wolves and sheep will live together in peace, and leopards will lie down with young goats, calves and lion cubs will feed together, and little children will take care of them. Cows and bears will eat together, and their calves and cubs will lie down in peace." Isaiah 11:6-8

There is no equivalent.

 

What a biker feels on the bike, no car driver will ever understand.

It's true: it's more fun to ride a slow bike fast than to ride a fast bike slow. Admittedly, though... It is MOST fun to ride a fast bike fast!

I drive and Ride.. And the feeling is just too different. I can go as far as saying That riding a bike has a certain sense of Freedom to it. And bikers and Drivers are just 2 different species and it can be seen in their Attitude and Character.

 

 

@paiseh Let me add one for you... Harley - Ghetto/Gangsta cars that always can be seen on American Tv. Not too sure what they call those.

Honda Fit/ Jazz - Honda Super 4

 

Everytime I try both, there's this thing..... this adrenaline rush that I just can't describe...

 

 

 

 

 

I think my VTEC has just kicked in yo!

 

-------

 

2. Offroad: Scramblers - car equivalent would be SUV/LandRover

 

Hmm...I beg to differ though. Try an African Twin, it's beefy dimensions and engine capacity can metaphorically be compared to that of a LandRover.

I liken the family car to a dependable, safe, reliable, trustworthy wife. The bike is sort of a weekend thrill with a mistress, a little naughty, a little risky, lots of fun and a little taboo. Hahaha!
