any Motorcycle riders?

well I just bought my first motor cycle and I go to the class to learn how to ride this weekend. I am really excited and just thought I would see if there are any fellow riders? I am going to try to get some pics of my bike today.

funny you should mention, i'm buying my first bike this week if all goes well.. GSX-R 600.
my wife and i figured it'd be a good fit considering i like speed and gas is going to be $5.00 a gallon soon.
what kind of bike did you get?

I'm thinking about buying a rocket this year if funds allow and the old ball 'n' chain allows it. I'm thinkin' some type of Suzuki... not a busa though!

Ive been riding for 20 years, and its funny cause im taking a riders course this weekend. Never got my motorcycle :taz: license so this course will allow me to skip the road test and be licensed plus 10 percent on insurance and 4 points off drivers license.

We ride dirt bikes.... Does that count? :P

If I knew how to ride, I would have gotten a motorcycle out this week. My dad has been working with motorcyles for years, but I've never tried to drive one. If I could afford it finanically, I would really consider buying a scooter. I live about 5 miles from work, so it could be pretty economical in terms of gas.

We used to ride - kids put a halt to that, we just all pile in the SUV. Now the bike just sits in the garage collecting dust. We do get out on the quads & snowmobile though. I bought my son & daughter a mini bike last summer and a go-kart the summer before.

I would say they do. I haven't riden a dirt bike in YEARS! I think off road riding is so much more of a rush. Trails, jumps, etc. Ya know?

I don't ride but I know alot of people who do - which means I get to paint them :D I don't do anything "high quality" really, unless its stripes over "real" paint. My custom jobs consist of rattle can jobs for friends and acquaintances. Someday I WILL have a real paint booth... lol

Did this a couple months ago for my bf's little brother... sorry, I'm proud and I like to show off :)

Someday I think it would be fun to learn, but frankly I'm just a little girl and the thought of it kind of scares me, I can't even hold up a dirt bike, lol. I'll stick to the back...
