I have been riding motorcycles for a very long time.

I just got through custom building me a prostreet Harley Davidson chooper. It is awesome to ride through town. Especially since OCC has that show on t.v. now.

I have also had in the past many crotch rockets. My favorite being 1999 GSXR Haybusa. Very Freakin' Fast! Miss that bitch.

I cannot post any pics for some reason. The attachment option is not working for me.

had a motorcycle since i turned 18

helmet laws are bullshit. Preventing a wreck is the key and you can prevent them much better w/o a helmet robbing you of your sight and hearing.
obviously you stand a better chance of living if you get into an accident with a helmet on. To prevent an accident it is not even close on what is better. I hate helmets

i lmao at the burn barrel behind my bike. cant control the neighbors at work lol. funny thing is that the city owns that building and barrel and it has been there for over a year and is not used. Hasnt moved an inch lol

like i said i sold my 929 and i need to get another.

my first bike was a zx-6 just like that thick ,but mine was green and purple...since then ive had 6r's 7r's and my 929.i was a die hard kawi fan until i got the honda...now thats all i will own.

btw i wont ride without a helmet.i live in the mountains(well at the bottoms of them) and we got crazy and high on adrinaline every sunday if it wasnt for my helmet i wouldnt be typing this today.

I was talking to an EMT the other day about motorcycles, I myself ride dirt bikes a Suzuki 200 and 400 also on occasion I take my friends sport bike a CBR-1100 out for some fun. Anyway, back to the EMT story, we were chatting about bike accidents and he said he went to an accident scene the other day. A rider was taking a corner going like 50 and didnt counter steer into it correctly and start to loose it slightly so he panicked and hit the brakes hard, he was thrown from the bike and would have been alright except that he pretty much landed directly under the front bumper of a car going the opposite direction, the car ran over him cutting him in half and dragging the top half of his torso about 300 feet down the road.

I have a gixxer750, d&d pipe, w/ TRE, and went down one tooth on the front sprocket. pull wheelies without clutching it. just throttle it up , and thr front tire rises, and I stand up as it comes up, and stretch out. I love going to the mountains and ridi'n the curves.

[bigkb]

Thanks Maxx and Crunch. They just happened to have that one at the dealer already. So I didn't have to wait. I was lucky though, because they were selling fast at that time. Most people were waiting weeks to get particular models.

maxx - a picture is worth a thousand words

bigkb - if I rode a harley, it would definitely be a fatboy

'03 gixxer 1000, helmet and leathers, trash the helmet laws if you want to ride w/o one - rock on, but I don't leave the house without it.

So what does everyone think is a good starter bike, for someone who has never ridden a bike before and is 5'8, 180. I was thinking 250 all the way, but apparently some think its too small??? Thoughts?

I bought a 2001 Honda 600CBRF4i for my first bike, no worries at all bro! Too bad the fuking thing got stolen less then 2 months after i bought it.... Oh well, had nothing better to do then throw away 6000 bux to some crack head theif....

Find a old yamaha YZ zinger LoL. Just jokin with ya bro but if your talking about a street bike then a 250 would be wayyyyy to small and would look about as stupid as Rambo in a pair of speedo's . Go atleast something around a 750 unless your talking about a dirt bike then id say yeah a 250 would work perfect.

My bike is a old 73 sportster with the shifter on the right hand side "anti theft device". Yeah I know sporties are bitch bikes but im not a R.U.B. and its paid for and you would have to look real hard to find a jap part on it. Its only a 1000 but its true Milwaukee iron and best of all its paid for. And yes Harleys can be a pain in the ass but i realy doubt that H-D will ever move its company out of the good ol USA and is one of the few companys that takes pride in that.
