    I have a 2014 Yamaha FZ-09. Just bought it yesterday. It's my third bike.

    Edited because images were too big to fit. It's Blazing Orange.

    I have my license(since April of 2011), but sadly no bike. I learned on a TINY Suzuki 150, and it was still almost too tall for me. So I want one like this:

    That's a Suzuki 250 and it's adorable, while also being smallish and fast enough. I'm pretty sure the one I learned on couldn't break 25 mph downhill with a tailwind :laugh:

    Been riding street bikes since 1970. Currently riding a 1997 Royal Star (pic in profile). Been on Apple Pie Run to Apple Valley. Toys for Tots for years. Street Vibrations to Reno. Good Vibrations to Salem. Going to Hollister this Summer and Sturgis next summer.

    Longest run I ever took was San Diego to Chicago. I ride any time the road is dry and the temperature is above freezing. Rode today and it's 33 degrees F outside.

    Hey guys .. I just wanted to check and see who out there rides.


    What kind of bike and how often do you ride?
    Ever been to any of the big rallies?

    Pics of your bike?


    Forgot to add my own info:


    I ride a GSXR - Been riding for over 10 years
    Ive never been to Sturgis or Daytona.. but I have been to ROT in Austin.. that's out biggest one.
    If I wasn't at work I could add a pic of my bike ..

    My husband and I ride a Virago 1100. I got my permit and used to have one but I can't drive it on my own bc of my back. So I just get to ride b!tch and enjoy the scenery. We haven't been to a big rally yet but our hope is to make to Sturgis sometime soon!

    Hubby and I ride a '95 Ultra Classic. I would love to save up for a trike after we get our house paid off. We live at 9000 feet in Colorado, so we have a short riding season, but ride every time we get the chance. :glasses:

    Hi All,
    I'm a brand new rider. Maybe 250 miles on my butt. I have a little Kawasake KLR250. I ride to/from work (95+ mpg!!!) and out the rural roads, including a little dirt. I was wondering about the calorie burn, e.g. could I consider it "exercise". I certainly feel like I've worked out after a couple of hours out there! Using "Map My Fitness" I've called it "horseback riding" since it's the closest thing they have. The 50 mile ride I did last night would suggest a 771 calorie burn with that designation, and I'm sure it wasn't that much. I like the other post in here that figures it around 120 cal per hour.

    I also have an '88 Honda NX650. We went down :(. We're both getting fixed.

    BF rides a BMW FS650

    I ride a 2001 SV650. I've completely Franken-biked her. 2008 GSXR Front end, rear wheel, R6 brakes and MC. ZX-10r rear shock and brakes. Buell headlight. I don't even know how to identify her anymore.
