lol. the title should give it away "Japan's HAYABUSA closes in on asteroid..."

a hayabusa is a mean as fuck 175hp sport bike. but i guess it is also the name of a space probe, hence sportbike in space. :D

hope that cleared it up for ya

wait, wait...what???!!! they have a ZX14-R now?!!!...i havent kept up with bikes in a while...just saw the 06 lineup for the big four and was swept off my feet...well, the 10R was making all other liter bikes obsolete; even its big brother...

i guess bandwagoners and squids are a good thing...they make my car and bike worth way more than it is...and they make big companies churn out better products to compete for bandwagoners'/squids' parents' money...
