A motorcycle? What kind? Pictures?
I'm thinking of getting one. I used to ride a dirtbike, but always wanted to ride a streetbike.

I let the women do all the riding... in the passenger seat of my car. Although helmets help, I think the odds of becoming an organ donor are a little too high.

WTF is it with the derailing? If you don't ride, or don't plan on it, then just don't post...

Here is the cop version:
It's pretty nice, but I still love the CBR1100RR

Nice ride, I've read good things about the ABS breaks on that thing, as well as the power assist.
How do you like him?

I assume you were referring to the beamer and not the turtle (though i hear those are fun rides as well)...
Love the bike so far. The ABS is great, although takes a little time getting used to the brake feel from a non-ABS bike. It's just a really easy bike to live with, runs smoothly, has nice power and good extra features (the heated hand-grips are a sweet touch, up here in the northeast).

Good advice. Now read it again and listen.

mine... I REALLY love the look of the stock exhaust you see in the first two shots, that super-long 2 into 1 really emphasizes the low long lines of the bike, but its just too damn quiet so I replaced it with a pair of Cobras. The third shot shows it without the passenger seat, which I MUCH prefer, unfortunately girls dont much enjoy riding the hardtail so I cant completely get rid of it.
I'm truly surprised how many random people stop me or otherwise make the effort to come by and tell me how nice it is/ask what it is, even ancient Harley guys and friends that build $30,000 choppers. Good bang for the buck from a 1998. Was lucky to find one that'd barely been ridden, only 3500 miles.

I ride, but if I posted a picture you would all laugh, I have a 1988 Honda VTR 250, yes a 250...
it's so damn light, but it becomes a total dog up in the mountains here... My mom also got a new bike which I have also ridden, she has a 05 Honda shadow 750, black with red flames!

yea, i looked for an old cafe racer first but couldnt find anything with decent miles in the immediate area. i was pretty hesitant to buy a single cylinder since i really prefer the extra displacement, but not finding anything that was 'just right' was the biggest reason.
I'd really like to buy/build a Triton in the near future.

You get more looks than the Harly Guys?... Thank Heaven for that, I give most Harly Guys looks cause they're mostly fat. 
I know a few riders (Hogs)
Some guys I know call them Hardly Driveables... all in good fun.

very nice. i had a '78 bonnie 750 in black with gold scallops. dual disc, dual carb, five speeds. i kept it mostly stock except i added a hump seat and drop bars so it looked more cafe racer. sorry, no digital pic at this time; i sold it back in 1998. harley guys came up to me because a lot of them started on truimphs, BSAs, nortons, etc. dudes on plastic bikes just scoffed or gave a look of confusion.

Knuckle draggers, the lot of them.
I like that Beamer. Can't afford it. Probably going for the CBR, or maybe another ride similar. I'm interested in racing as well as street riding. Not much into off-road. Used to do some dirt riding, and have eaten my share.

I ride every day. My bike has a bell and a basket, and one gear. Its a sad life, but beats owning a car.

this is actually a lot closer to the actual Harley demographic than the leather and long-hairs that some people picture.
