[abuan]

some beatutiful bikes posted up!

here's my baby. i've been an EMT with the city and county of honolulu for just under 2 years and i still always get the question..."after all the messed up scenes you've been on, you're still riding that thing?"

hahahaha, yessir i am!

Yum a Repsol CBR I can't wait to get a new bike. But it's looking more and more like next summer before that happens

>>"after all the messed up scenes you've been on, you're still riding that thing?"<<

I suppose that happens to all of us. I see more that few rider induced accidents but also a lot of cages turning left into oncoming bikes. And the cage driver inevitably always says, "I didn't see him!" If the opportunity presents itself I'll always mention to the cop on scene, "I didn't see him isn't a good excuse. It just means they weren't paying enough attention."

I am always the old man....

with the old man motorcycle...

I have since added arm rests for the rider, rear speakers and a stereo for long rides.

I can also carry a complete set of bunker gear

Aint that the truth! I had a lady rear end me one day on the bike and as she's pushing me forward I turned around to see wtf was going on and she's looking off somewhere in la la land. Her excuse was, "I'm so sorry! I didn't see you there!" I don't always put it 100% on the cager though. I see riders all the time riding in a position that makes them invisible to traffic.

My buddy just got this bike:
2008 R1

I'm going to go get a bike this week. I'm thinking either an Ducati 848, R6 or an R1

You know, since we are on the topic of motorcycles and there are quite a few of us that ride (well, you, I don't ride, yet), does anyone actually have lights and sirens on their bikes? I DON'T want to beat the dead horse of whether it's a good idea or not, just a simple yes or no will suffice.

No surprise that they make a setup for my bike:

I have the same model as the one on the left, sans emergency lights.

I am actually shopping for a 250cc scooter right now, so I can keep miles off my M3 (it eats gas faster than I can afford to feed it), but my ultimate dream bike is a BMW F800GS.

 

[Motojunkie]

Well I want to see you doing this when you get the BMW!

Glad to see a thread like this here! I am an avid rider. I get on it as much as I can when I have free time.

I ride an 08 CBR 600RR.

Just got my "First" bike last Thursday!

 

[NickD]

Finished up Nina's wiring enough for a motor bump . . .

Anybody but me hear that? I think her first words were, "Da Da!"

Nina - First Ride !!!

I've got about fifty clandestine miles on her now (no plates yet) and nothing's fallen off, LOL !!!

You know in our biz we gotta stay away from the moving violations. I have an appointment at the DMV in about week to get her registered but damn, I'm like a newlywed, I just can't stay off her . . .
