When I really need to wake up, I will have a 5Hr Power Shot.  Those things work and do not have the garbage the other stuff does.  But I do also drink either Sobe Adrenaline Rush or Monster Chaos.  Those 2 taste the best to me...

The Sobe adrenaline does taste good, I usually go for an AMP, or the Dale Earndefart Jr. Amp, those 2 taste good, but when it comes to actually needing energy, Red Bull with it's taste will get ya!

I never touch the stuff...it always tastes like a big can-o-chemicals to me. :P
Coffee is about the only caffeine type of drink I consume.

The Aquamax...yes, this bike spent 2 nights underwater one weekend. (Not my doing), but it gained the name, and has since become pseudo-famous. :)

Never have cared for the stuff. They all taste like cough syrup to me. Especially Red Bull :puke: I guess the only one that didnt taste so bad was Mtn. Dew Amp. If I had to drink one I would go for that.

NOS?!?!?!?!?!

Why would you drink a fuel additive? You should just put it in your motorcycle!

on this topic let me enlighten you all on alittle something which I learned. The "AMP" energy shot drinks, you know the ones in the little bottle? well apparently up until about a year ago they made 2 in almost identical containers. One you just drink out of the little bottle. and well the second is the most horrific thing ever invented. Apparently they started making one which was a concentrate and was designed to make one quart. I have no idea why in the hell they would make such a monstrosity, because seriously who needs a quart of energy drink. I didnt realize this until someone told me to read the bottle when i was bouncing off the walls for about 10 hours. thats when i realized why the gas station was clearancing them out for $.25 a bottle. after it ended i think it was worse than any headache that i've even had even the alcohol induced ones.

I drank two of the Mt. Dew energy drinks a few years ago. I was driving truck at the time. I had a 3 AM appointment for an unload. Around midnight I started getting tired and I couldn't stop to sleep until I got to where I needed to unload due to my driving time being up at 4 AM.

Anyway I stopped at a truckstop and filled my truck with fuel, bought a cup of coffee and one of those Mt. Dew energy drinks. 30 minutes later I was doing just fine. Wide awake. Well, around 2 am I started getting sleepy again so I stopped and bought another one of those cans of Mt Dew. I made it to my drop and they unloaded my trailer. I pulled over to the parking area and tried to go to sleep. Didnt work. Not at all. It was probably 7 before I started getting drowsy enough to catch a few winks. Never again.
