Couple good quotes: "Wrap all this freedom in a lovely ribbon of performance, and you get what experts call fun. Not the fake hood scoop, chrome wheels and racing stripe school of performance. " "Have you ever seen two automobile drivers wave to each other because they were driving? For me, waving to a fellow rider is nearly a daily occurrence. The horror, the horror..." Enjoy |

Cornering becomes a symphony of precise movements instead of an awkward wallow, working in harmony with the road instead of fighting it tooth and nail. That's beautifully said... |

where's your sidekick hiding. haven't seen him around lately. I guess you are speaking of Spidy... I know he is busy with the new house, but besides that NO CLUE. I should call the little wall crawler, } |

black, i could imagine how busy he is now that he has the significant other. after 26 yrs, i try to make up excuses as to why i can't do things. hope he's doing alright though. jaimec, your pretty much spot on with that statement for the most part. after our dad passed away, 3 of us went off and got back into riding and one just traded up to something better. all within about 3 months of each other. i just know i waited to long to get back into it. |

The motorcycle that is parked in front of the dr's office is theirs I have sold a couple to therapists. Its a niche group that gets the need for escape and has the money to do it. Theres even one ULY in the bunch. Divorce attorneys work well for me too. |

You never see motorcycles parked outside the psychiatrist's office. My dad always called riding "therapy".
