Twist your wrist - what do you ride?
I have been riding motor cycles for a long time: road race, dirt, street, 4-stroke, 2-stroke, you name it - I ride it. Here is my 1998 VTR 1000 with two brothers full carbon fiber exhaust. Let's see who else is into MC's and what you have - it is spring time and need to get ready for riding!

I can't find a picture of it on this computer, but I have a 2006 BMW R1200RT that's bound to come out of storage soon! A distinct lack of snow here and a promise of temps in the 40's means the riding season is upon us! I'll have to find a pic and edit this post!

I'm afraid I know next to nothing in bikes but the one on the left picture looks very nice!

After suffering a head injury last March, I developed a pretty severe post-concussion syndrome which forced me to sell my 1999 Ducati ST2 and my Harley-Davidson Ultra Classic due to balance issues. Not wanting to give up riding, I bought this Harley-Davidson TriGlide. I absolutely love it. Here we north of Banff in Alberta, Canada.
In my driveway before adding custom bits: I removed the stock header/catalytic converter and replaced it with a Jackpot stainless steel head pipe as well as a high-flow air cleaner and a Power Vision EFI tuner. Much more HP and much less engine heat. |

Nice. I have a soft spot for Vespa scooters. They're a little impractical here in the W PA hill country, but a heck of a lot of fun for taking to the shore. I ended up trading mine toward my Duc Multistrada S, but I really liked it just the same.

No motorcycle for me! But I love cruising with my Dad on the back of his 03' Road King Classic! Either than that, it's a mountain bike or my vintage CCM cruiser.

Here is my 2001 Springer, which is heavily customized! And a shot from Mt. Rushmore during Sturgis Bike Week last August. Lastly, my 2003 Road King FLHR on a stop thru Iowa on one of its many trips to Sturgis as well.

Great looking VTR, Craig. I always had a soft sport for that and the RC-51...probably because they are twins. Otherwise, the Japanese bikes have lost their luster to me over the years...Italian sport bikes are where its at...HD cruiser is OK, but I'm getting a BMW tour bike next...the Harley street glide is great at what it does, but its just not 100% me...I love to look at it and ride it, but its missing some creature comforts that I'd ultimately like. Mainly bought it because I love v-twins.
It really comes down to the fact that I love all 2-wheelers...if only i had a bigger garage! HD_Tuono.jpg |

Would love to know how you got it in the doctor's office. lol. awesome! Sorry to hear about your injury - good on you for staying out there riding! |

I wheeled the bike into Trauma Room Two on a night shift at the ER. The nurses wiped the dust off. It was a great bike and went faster than I was comfortable riding.

If we are counting scooters, here is my 2003 Honda Metropolitan. We use it for knocking about town. 100 miles per gallon of fuel.
