Thanks for all the heads up guys, i know the dangers of it, but like others have said, loud exhaust, drive like no one can see you... stuff happens, but drive defensivly mine is more of a gas saver, not drive like a madman, even though im sure il have my fun alittle. hehe

Nice bikes! But I gotta say that I'd rather put the several thousand dollars I'm going to have to spend on a new bike into my Camaro's gas tank.

Car enthusiasts are one thing... but 'the bikes and the people who love them' is an entirely new level of dedication, imo. Keep 'em commin'!

True story!

[justa25thTA]

Here's mine. 2005 Yamaha Royal Star Tour Deluxe. I get 35-38 mpg, and have been commuting to work on bike since 98. I usually assume most drivers are out to kill me, and am right more than not it seems.
