What is up with the tail piece sticking way up in the air on so many streetfighters? What is the purpose of it? I think that shit looks stupid. A little bit of an upward tilt is cool, but some of these bikes have tails that just shoot right up in the air! What's up with that?

im not sure whats up with that...maybe to hold you in while you do wheelies.

thats the most logical thing ive ever come up with...and believe me, i think about that a lot.

i agree that with a little extra angle they can look cool, but they go way too far!

wheelies gone wrong huh? that could certainly have been an influence.

picture doing a wheelie on one of those things tho...it might actually support/hold you in place a bit.

I think it is rude! Noone wants to see your undertail.

Leave something to the imagination.

i hate that shit! i mean, yea, a little bit of a tilt is mean looking, but right up in there air (like a lot of bikes) just looks dumb imo.

 

[str33tfyt3r]

i dont know about that shit, its ugly as hell tho

 

[Tommy Pantsdown]

It all goes with the aggressive streetfighter background.

Short and aggressive.

 

[str33tfyt3r]

It just gives off that badass look. It's like the muscle cars, when they jack the rear end up, so it looks like its just about to punce on you.

 

[929_adam]

agreed. it does give the pouncing appearance/ aggressive stance. sometimes or most times it just goes overkill tho.

I think the high tail is just to categorize it from the other bikes out there. You don't have to go with the high tail if you don't want to.My street fighteer tail is a 1999 r6 tail.It is not so high even though i would love to vave it 2 inches higher.Once again, the high tail is just to say. I used to be real heavy as a sport bike, and now i am free as a bird. Thank you. I am a a street fighter.:LolLolLolLol: :rock: :

Its just the GERMAN style, the british seems more about performance, and weight, and the Americans its about glam and drag racin.

heh, not ALL Americans!!! There are definitely WAY TOO MANY chromed-out, stretched frame, neon-lit bikes in America, I agree with you there, but I think you'll find on this site, we have MUCH better taste than that! :LolLolLolLol:

I think the bike in your avatar looks hot, I definitely like a small upward angle, I'm just talking about the ones that are almost straight up in the air.

Thats good to here about your bikes on this site, cause I feel the strtched out single disc 28ft long busas suck donkeys vomit...
