A 25-mile commute through Russian traffic and a powerful two-wheeled samurai sword, and you get a video showing the "quick" way to work. Sometimes this two-wheeler even becomes a one-wheeler as rare empty stretches of road disappear when the nose goes skyward. Hang On !!

I went to you-tube and found this one on the ghost rider...he's legendary among the motorcycle adrenaline junkies, he routinely hits 150-180 mph in traffic...like I said, I heard he is no longer with us...don't know for sure though
We can only hope that his life policy was current. RIP
...and that it covers suicide...this is crazier than sky diving without a "chute" :?)
Yes. I'd love to have a bike again, but Mrs.L says NO! So that's that.
In the DFW Metroplex the EMT's/cops call the sport-bike riders "organ donors".
With good reason.
usually not much left to salvage...
Who can identify my ride?
Rice grinder copy of HD you'd be lucky to get 25k miles out of.
...here we go!
BTW, have you seen the new rice grinder accessory pack? It's mandatory for the average Hog hating grinder rider 1 - Mesh safety vest to let the world know you're a bitch at heart 2 - Helmet, the bigger the better 3 - Soap-on-a-rope 4 - Scissors to cut the rope (Safety Scissors preferred)
OK, OK, but seriously, let's be COMPLETELY honest and fair here. We BOTH know 1 or maybe even 2 people that ride rice burners that aren't either gay OR metro- sexual. I mean, seriously...LOL!
You hog riders think very highly of yourselves don't you. Just about every person I see riding a Japanese cruiser ride them for several reasons, none of which includes being gay or "metro-sexual". The reasons are; A lot of Harley riders are pretty decent folks too, although there are some stuck up snobs who think just because they ride a Harley, they're super cool. Such people apparently have a self esteem issue, and need a big expensive bike to boost their egos and feel important. That, and they think it helps them score with chicks.
Wrong on all counts.....bitch! I ride a Hog cause it's the best road bike and they last....period.
Wrong on all counts.....bitch! Uh huh. Asshole. I ride a Hog cause it's the best road bike and they last....period. Most people I know who've owned Harley's are constantly fixing them, and spend as much money in "upgrading" the bike to make it work the way it's supposed to work as they spent buying it new. Not only that, but from what I've read, Harley Davidson service sucks ass where they usually fuck up the bike worse than it was when it came to the shop, charge an arm and a leg, and take months to perform a two hour fix. And like I said, it's pretty obvious that there are some who buy Harleys because they need it to feel like a "big man".
I've had no problems with mine. I did have to buy a new tire, a new battery and do the 5,000 mile servicing when I bought it. It was all figured into my buying price and except for the battery, had it done by a HD dealer. (I did buy a HD AGM battery). I could have saved some money by having the work done by one of the numerous non HD shops that specialize in "American Motorcycles" Next time I will.
