    Sold my Kawi Vulcan 900 about a year ago, looking at buying a new bike towards spring though. Looking at the Victory Judge or Boardwalk :-)

    I ride a Yamaha Vstar 650. I love that it is short enough for me to flatfoot. Husband has the 1100. He would love to move up to a Victory. We went on the Victory test ride and he fell in love, but can't fund it yet.

    Honda CBR600F

    It does everything and feels so nimble and agile, loves corners and wants to go faster.

    1995 Vulcan 750. Weather here in Texas has finally gotten tolerable for riding!

    My husband and I just got a brand new Yamaha FZ6R.. love it! I'm just the passenger though but it's so much fun. We go out for rides all the time, every nice day he rides it to and from work. Such a great money saver too considering he works 45 minutes away from home. Much cheaper to ride the bike rather than take the car.

    I like how your bike looks cafed. What kind of a bike is it? My ex has a KTM990 which was very comfortable for long rides. I am hoping to own a Triumph someday. :happy:

    2006 ZX6R in my profile pic. Did my first track day Sept. 14. I'm hooked on track riding now.

    Retired 2007 Harley Dyna Wide Glide...too many close calls with stupid drivers not paying attention to motorcyclists :sad:

    why do you guys dart in and out of lanes?

    willing to give the benefit of the doubt that it's something to do with having to maintain a certain speed to keep your bike upright (i'm crap at science, it's possible), but maybe it's something else. curious minds want to know.

    (but really, it is annoying to drive in your vicinity. no car driver wants to kill a motorcyclist because they didn't see them in their blind spot - you are very tiny and fast! also fyi i've been told nurses call your vehicles meat grinders.)

    i will never get on a motorcycle, but other than the above it does look romantic and all that.

    Way to make a generalization about all motorcyclists. Sure, there are some that fit the stereotype but there is also a very good majority who are very safe when they ride.

    I've been riding Harleys since I was 12, and riding my own for 9 years. I have a 2005 Heritage Softail that I use for road trips. I also have a 2000 Heritage Springer that I ride around town. Pix are in my profile (I don't own the '97 Heritage Springer any more) I ought to get some new ones uploaded. I have changed the '05 up quite a bit cosmetically this year with a new paint job and some other touches.

    Harley Heritage Softail---Street -- scared of the dirt, and gravel and rain and most other vehicles on the road.

    Rode Harleys for 10 years. Started out on a Sporty. Had that for a few months, bought a Heritage Springer. That bike got stolen about 3 years later, so I bought a Road King.

    Now I ride a GSXR1300.

    I have been a passenger for over 8 years on my husband's 2003 Harley Sportster. We did 1500 miles 2-up on it during the week of our honeymoon, it was awesome!

    He encouraged me to start riding when I expressed interest. My first bike was a 1984 Honda Hawk CB450T. I then moved up to a 1983 Honda Magna v45 750.

    For my birthday 2 years ago, my husband bought me my current bike, Harley Davidson Dyna Defender (Police model)
