Most cruiser riders are nice people. But boring. Usually middle management yes-men, dentists or salesman who like to talk about nothing but football and the weather.

Hang on to your edge and passion for risk taking dude, cruising to your death at 55 mph with tassles and white walls will NEVER be as awesome a way to go out as high-siding into a school bus at 120 mph in a massive fireball.

If you trade your badass kawi streetfighter for a cruiser* with tassles and neons and shit, you're dead to me.
*exceptions; M109R, busa, concours 14, triumph rocket III or bimmer k1200s

Hey does the Mrs OTB ever ask to ride on the back of your bikes?

PS. I just found another no miles Bimota for sale and all my cash is tied up in the Triumph and the Katana....

anybody wanna loan me the balance and we can go halvsies on it. (You pay for it and I'll ride it.....

).

Just a thought.....

(As you can see, I've decided I'm not too old for sportbikes, yet......)

No. She has NO INTEREST in riding at all. She went out a couple of times with me, and said it wasn't her cup of tea, but if I enjoyed it, to have a good time and make certain the life insurance was paid up..............................

When you find a DB6 you let me know...not that I'll have the cash to buy it...but I'd like to know anyway.

Matter of fact...I'll take one of each:
