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...
Here's mine...
Now that is totally sweet. Consider some additional braking capability on the front, but, my goodness, that's a gorgeous ride. Thanks for sharing all the pics here.
You'd love my 72, single disk front, drum brake rear. Can't go fast cuz it will never stop. :)
Well, there's that safety factor. Slowly and safely out there, Critter.
Nice to have a bike-porn thread going on.
___________ That, and Night Moves just about gets it done for me -
We've Got Tonight...1978...I was 20 years old and just moved to Atlanta GA...what a time and what a place. Wild as a buck and crazy in love...yep, those were GREAT days. Some things don't change :?)
The memories are like yesterday. '78 saw me finally married, at 32, and settling down...

you know Lod...I say it all the time...we're only here for a blink...looking back, we can see how fast we get here. Amazing really, I'm 53 and, praise GOD, in great health and doing good with lots of miles yet to go, GOD willing, and we don't end up in a crazy civil war with these nuts in DC. But what a GREAT ride it's been so far...man, what A Ride!
