That's part of my struggle for a reason to keep my bike. I tried riding with groups a couple times, and about half the guys (and gals) were such terrible, or irresponsible, riders that I avoid them now. All the guys I used to ride with have "matured" (read: their wives put down their feet).

bike

I have been riding for 42 years , and have had a lot of different makes and models . I used to like big one cylinder motors . I just bought a 1982 Honda CBX 6 cylinder , It is a real fun bike , that is rare and different .

I can no longer make that claim. Some years ago my wife came across some drawings for a "man's bike" that I was considering. When I admitted it was to be for me and not a customer she reminded me of the promise I made on April 11, 1983. Nuff said. The upside of it is that I am now free to complete the freshening up project on my '31 Vicky

I've got an entire motorcycle shop in the back yard. Mostly old BMW airheads. I need a truck to haul them--hence the '52 F6.

I ride a 2000 Harley "RatKing" Custom. I built this pig off of Craigslist and at the swap meets.


Rocking out to ACDC on a poker run early this summer.

Thought I'd bring back this old thread with a picture of my latest purchase. 1973 Norton 850 Commando Interstate. Low mile, one owner bike that's been sitting for 10 years.
