Heck yes, I like driving bikes more than driving my truck. Started on a Honda 50 and have owned sport bikes, sport touring and even a 1800 Goldwing. My current and most favorite bike is a Honda XR650R, street legal. Dual sport is the only way to go.

There's nothing better than ripping across the desert at 100mph on a 1x2. Kawasaki 2001 KX500. Team green!

I ride an '83 Yamaha Venture. I usually ride more in the winter, but it needs to have the speedo drive looked at and since I have no garage I have to pick my work on it days carefully.

I have a Yamaha V-star 1100 classic. I wanted a fat boy, but the budget would not allow that much $$$$.

Wick - Awsome bike, but I would like to take the Lear for a spin. :-)
