Sold this one recently. Wish I never did. I modded the fork, had a GSX-R shock, fixed billet rear sets, neato little billet mirrors, braided lines w/ DOT 5, custom alloy plate hanger that did not attract the cops, most fun tight canyon bike ever....but it was brutal on the freeway. Buffeting sucks.
I won't embarrass anyone with pics of "The Beast". She is a 1982 Honda Nighthawk 750. got for "free" (actually $200) from a friend. hasnt run in 6 years.......until this eptember, so I am back riding...just in time to put her up for the winter, ah well.
I used to ride. I had a nice little Ninja 500. Beginnining of last year some dumb lady in a car changed lanes into me though. I got broken tibia, fibula, and crushed most of the bones in my right foot. If I had not been wearing good gear I would have lost my foot. Now almost 2 years and 5 surgeries later I would like to get back to riding, I just gotta convince my wife.
Nice flying photos. I got the bug again and bought a new 08 Husqvarna 250 this past summer. I forgot how much fun it is to ride. Rode it to work a few times this past summer and stopped. 1 because I could not handle the temps below 40 degrees at 55 mph (I know, pansie) and 2 because in my local town we had 6 people killed on bikes in 8 weeks in the city. For a city of right at 100K, it was a wake up call that I should stick to dirt.
I just started riding when I got to HI about 20 days ago. I got an '05 Shadow Spirit VT750 and I absolutely love riding. I keep kicking myself for not getting one sooner.
1997 Kawasaki KX250 2-Stroke set up for trail since I'm too old to race 'er anymore!
