Hey everyone. I am new and excited to be here. I hope to learn alot about motorcycles. A friend of mine just got a pretty sweet bike and I am hoping to do the same soon. I am not an impulse buyer so I am doing my research and will prob. have a lot of questions for everyone. Thanks for having me!

 

welcome to the forum!

Welcome fellow newbie!

Post some pictures!

 

ok-will do. Thanks.

 

Actually, I have a question for all of you. Is your bike your primary transportation? My car lease is up in June and I am wondering if I even need to get another car. I work in marketing so sometimes I need a car, but I dont mind public transportation and a bike is much cooler!

 

I have a 98 SUV I drive when I have to bring kids to school and buy groceries
and have a hitch and trailer (cause some of my Crew's bikes have parts fall off and I have to haul them back from long rally trips)
but I bought my bike in june o5*NEW 0 Miles* and have 20423 miles on it I ride it in wet and cold sun and wind, though I can in desert here we dont have snow or ice to worry about! you hit black ice and your pucker factor jumps to 8 real fast!

Pucker Factor= the amount your ******* tightens up in a close call
what is a biker" Some one that gets his *** on his bike and rides!"
unlike a poser=some one that puts on leathers and sits on his in front of the coffee shop(on nice days when its warm)
cars ride THRU the rain
Bikers ride IN it!

 

dig it- thanks
