Re: Motorcycles
i drive a car like a mainic. Im that guy in the car who is always weaving through traffic. i know that if i were to get a bike, i would get a sport bike, and if i were to get a sports bike, i would die so quickly. i would probably die on the ride home. its not that they r 2 fast, just that i love 2 speed too much for my own good, its such a thrill

Re: Motorcycles
I have a CRB600. I ride it daily unless its raining when i leave the house. Ive even toted one of my BP's around in my backpack a time or 2. its alot of fun, just watch out for the cars who arent watching out for you. basicly treat every car like they want to run you over 
oh and learn about counter steering. if you want to turn left you have to steer to the right. easier way to explain it is to turn left push on the left grip, to turn right push on the right. if you dont then you will turn too wide and smack a tree or something.
I have some snakes

I had the same thing happen to my old ninja like 8 years ago. they tried to steal it and couldnt so kicked it over and i was out of town so the apartment complex called a tow truck to remove it from the lot because it looked trashy laying on its side lol. what a crappy summer that was.

lol. i take it you learned about counter steering the hard way. i did that when i was learning to ride when i was 8. bounced off a tree then went into a fence and gashed my pinky open really good. still have the scar from it too. after that i listend to my dad on how to ride a motorcycle. ive still had some pretty bad wrecks over the years but thats mostly thanks to supercross and just plain being stupid. have only wrecked once on the street in 6 years of riding on the road. (knock on wood) and that happened when i was in drizzling rain. a stop light changed and caught me off guard i hit the brakes and lost the front end thanks to the oil/rain slick that was there.

Yep lol. My parents got me into M.A.M.A. when i was like 8. i was too old for a 60 so they put me on a YZ80 but i was definatly too small for it. I had blocks to stand on at the start gate. Anyway noone told me about countersteering so soon as i was going fast enough for it to matter i clipped a tree. Ahh those were the days. I was a member of the over the handlebars club too hehe.

I also ride an '07 Triumph ST 1050 that I bought for a mainland Europe trip that I took last year - I will post pics later.

Re: Motorcycles
Tonymul That sucks man how bad did you get hurt?
Hope you had full coverage insurance on your bike.
Is it a total loss or you going to try to fix it?
