Re: Anyone else ride motorcycles???
This is my little pooperglide (superglide) It no longer has a wimp shield which is a lot more fun, except when you beg smacked in the head by the big bugs.
I learned quickly that it's a bad idea to blow a bubble on a motorcycle.

Re: Anyone else ride motorcycles???
I love my Harley. I love being on it all by myself. It's the only time I feel like I don't have 10 people all wanting me for something. I mean, it's nice to be wanted and all but it's nice to be alone with nothing but the road stretching out before you.

That and no one can ask you to help them move or tow their car because your driving a cherokee or a pick up truck.. lol

Re: Anyone else ride motorcycles???
What are people with crotch rockets supposed to say to Harley Riders? At least we have nice crotches? :confused: :rofl:
Beautiful Soft Tail! I love all the flat black! I was looking at the small Harelys they make for girls (girls with no muscles) if that's counts for anything! They were WAY out of my price range though!

:rofl::rofl: That's awesome.
I do have to say I do like the look of harleys...but to me...nothing compares to the speed and the sound of pinning out crotch rocket. Oh yea and then there is the throwing it over in a twistie....oye....that is the best. :gj:

Re: Anyone else ride motorcycles???
My friend just got a Super Glide a few days ago! Hes stoked as hell.
Crotch rockets are o.k., But.... Motorcycles are dangerous enough. You hand alot of people a crotch rocket and they think its time to race through traffic and mountains, etc... Had a friend recently fly off the mountain on Ortega Highway (luckily he hit a tree so he didnt fly down the hill with his bike)! A month or two later his best friend popped his little second gear wheelie off some bump, lost control, smashed into a parked rv. He lost a leg, foot, and an arm, before he died around 45 minutes later.
I say take them to the track so you dont look so funny in your goofy little outfits!:P

Re: Anyone else ride motorcycles???
Ok, I finally got the pics re-sized. Here are me and my bike, Vypyrz. I named it that because the kickstand, foot pegs, and gas cap are chrome snakes, and the clutch and brake lever covers have faux snake skin in them... :gj:

Looks like it too with an extended rear swing arm. Also looks like it's sitting a little lower than stock but that could be the angle. Nice looking bike.

Re: Anyone else ride motorcycles???
Is that a Ninja that I see in the OP's post? ;) I think I've died and gone to heaven! A motorcycle thread on a snake forum... :)
I've actually got two bikes...my '08 Ninja ZX6r and a Harley Road King that I inherited from my dad. Here's the Ninja:

http://i147.photobucket.com/albums/r...0075/sped4.jpg
Don't have pics of the Harley just yet!
And glad to see we've got some ladies on two wheels! Isis--you should get your hands on a newer ZX6r...you'd be amazed at how nimble and lightweight they are! I started out on a Ninja 500 and that thing was a beast compared to the ZX6...very well designed. Particularly after I get off the 1000 lb. Harley...the Ninja feels like a toy! :)

Re: Anyone else ride motorcycles???

Really?....Now you've got me excited! I just asked my fiance, he says the newer 600 Ninja I got on still wasn't as new as your bike. I'm going to have to find one and try it out! :gj:
Love your bike! Soooo sexy!

Re: Anyone else ride motorcycles???
Hey balls great video...thanks for posting!! Ok so maybe we should all have a drag racing/motorcycle/snake get together.
I have to say...the drag strip is only 10 miles from my house...woooohoooooo!! lol :8:
I drag my 09 civc v-tec...but it is still stock right now...so I don't do that great in a quarter mile. I am waiting for my short shift and my air intake....but they haven't come out with the red one yet. $3000 I can do all that and a new exhaust ...that will add alot more horsepower. The hubby has done the research....as soon as I stop buying snakes...we can go for it. Oh the choices....

for 3gs you can do a turbo, and if you run about 8lbs of boost, your motor will be fine. In a couple of months I should be getting an Integra gsr :)

drag racing has always been a huge part of my life. i had a 400whp srt-4 have tuned so many of those cars i lost count. I also had a 78 malibu with a 355 and two stages of the giggle juice. Im always down to drag race the gixxer since i have yet to build another drag car.

Re: Anyone else ride motorcycles???
I just finished changing my handle bars from 24" apes to drag bars. What a pain! Cutting, splicing, soldering and routing 14 wires to the switches. Changing and adjusting the throttle, clutch and brake lines. Now I'm waiting for another new T-Fitting for the brake lines to come in because the first one is leaking and I got it temp fixed with teflon tape, oye :rage: Maybe tomorrow I'll get some new pics of it...

I personally am a fan of all bikes, but most recently ride crotch rockets. Just sold my GSXR 1000. Looking for both a hayabusa and a buell by the end of the summer if funds permit. Here is the bike I just got rid of

They were ok for bumping around town, but not at 75-80MPH on the Interstate. They would get buffeted by the wind and you could feel it in the steering and sometimes it would cause a noticable shimmy. The first time I felt it I pulled over because I was sure the steering head bearing was coming apart. I just got tired of constantly having to fight it. They made riding more like work than fun and that's when I knew it was time for them to go...:gj:
You know, it never occured to me about getting hung up by the sissy bar if you go down...
