Any riders out there??

So who here rides motorcycles??

I started on a TTR 125, but now I ride my CRF 230 (Both dirtbikes). I LOVE dirtbiking, and I'm pretty sure when I turn 18 I'm going to love streetbikes just the same. Anyone else out there ride?

I do.
First bike was a Kawi 750 2 stroke, then had a Yami 500 single, now ride a 80 cu in Softail.

I've had a few and some day hope to get another.

(Phazan for being a motorcycle lover you should probably spell it correctly in your sig.

^I didn't even notice that...it's one of those words that don't look wrong when they are spelled wrong. :blushing:

Fixing it...

:chatty:Now, now...

Crotch Rockets are a dime a dozen... :greenpbl:

Harleys have class and are built for cruising, not speed. Many moons ago I used to ride a Honda 500 (forgot the model) but I got bored with it, sounded like a cat in heat.:mrgreen:

Couple of things to remember about Harleys:

1) They don't leak, they mark their territory!

2) They don't vibrate, they shiver with anticipation!

That Ducati Monster S4R is what we've got - only ours is blue and white. Love it, love it, LOVE IT! :cheer: We also have a Ducati 620 Monster, a 1969 BSA Lightning 650, a 1972 Norton Commando and I have a 1976 Honda Elsinore 250 dirt bike. Bikes are like potato chips... you can't just have one. :lol:

I've got an '03 Katana 600..sort of a sport tourer. I need to have some repairs done on it before riding season this year..my pickup's 15 mpg is killing me!

I just bought a small, classic Honda... late last year. I'm not a rider, but intend to learn. I'm thinking I'll take it back and forth to work... about a mile and a half, all in town.

It's a 70cc Passport.

I'd be grateful for any advice.

Take a safety riding course. Worth the time and the money.
