Any motorcyclists out there?

Fjr real nice. Just showed a pic to my wife, she turned her nose up to that.
She wants a hd just cuz it's a Harley. I was looking at goldwings recently. She didn't like those either.
i really don't care what I ride, but I do want to keep her happy.

As far as the Buick, last I heard, he was gonna have a guy come by that specializes in auto computer issues.

The car specialist will almost certainly break out a tech2. Harley's are ok, but I feel they are overrated. I hear women like things that vibrate.

I think it was sometime in December, you had posted you just bought the BMW. I like those too & happen to see a couple of those out already. Pretty hardy New England riders!

I bought it during my vacation right around New Years. I am really looking forward to getting it home and prepping for a spring trip to North Carolina.

While I was doing my thing on the treadmill at the YMCA on Friday I saw 6 different motorcycles go by. It was 28 degrees outside. The troops are starting to get anxious for spring. I did fire my HD up in the shop a week ago --- mostly just to get the cats attention. Being 18 years old and in the final stages of his life he don't much care about anything anymore.

Makes me smile.
Not a biker. NOTHING at all against them, you or others Mr. Rod.

I was having my little spring fever two years ago.

I decided to go to the Outer Banks NC. Treat my wife.

I obtained a "cheaper" motel to save on bucks for my wife and me.

I just did not know it was biker week there.

In our motel and all through the area Harleys all hours of the night.

It was well, no problem, but not much good deep sleep.

That distinct sound all night, all day everywhere.

I try to be courteuos to non-motorcyclists when it comes to noise. I do not believe it really helps with conspicuity. All it does IMO is to reinforce negative stereotypes of motorcylists. I also take a dim view of stunters on the street. I am a motorcyclist, not a "biker".

Ya I bet it was extremely comfortable ride. Big seat, those bars & highway pegs.
I'd love to have one of those.
Mine came with a shield too. Rarely used it though.

CB 900 Custom with dual range transmission?

I kinda fancied the friend models 750,900,1100. I spotted yours so quickly because I had a neighbor in college who had one nearly identical except for the sissy bar. A handsome bike, but I wondered just how much that exhaust weighed.
