I ride probably the most "vanilla" bike listed so far - a '98 Suzuki GS500E. I bought it six years ago after taking the MSF course, figuring I'd thrash it for a year and then upgrade. Then came the house and the wife . Once I got the expenses under control I started thinking about a new bike again......until my daughter was born. Paying daycare expenses took the wind out of my sails trying to figure out how much bike I could afford. *Sigh* Oh well, at least the Suzuki's running nicely again on a fresh carb rebuild. Besides, I'm just happy to be on two wheels and the insurance is cheap!

I've ridden since I was 16. 305 Honda Scrambler, (2) '70 750 Honda inline 4s, 82 V45 Honda, 84 V65 Honda, 85 V65 Honda, 92 HD Sturgis, 04 Yamaha Road Star. It's always a toss up about what to do on a free day ride or fly.

I ride a Harley Dyna Low Rider. It's been pimped. my passion is my YZ 450F my 5 kids all have yamahammers. if i'm not jacking with my heli we're at the dirt track. i race the OCCRA, curcuit here in Oklahoma. I'm the worlds biggest Valentino Rossi fan, in moto gp and got the chance to see him race in Laguna Seca last year, it was awesome. I got the rossi sun face logo tatooed on my leg while we were on Haight Ashbury in San Fran. Laguna was so sweet. 200 mph handle bar to handle bar kicks nascar in the teeth.

This is what I ride, an '06 Yamaha Roadstar Midnight Silverado. I fly first thing in the morning then I ride after that. If I had to choose between the two it would be real tough! I'd probbly go with airplanes because I can build in the winter.

Thought I would add my info here.Been rideing for a little more than 50 yrs.My first bike was a 1950 James 150cc.Next came a 42 Harley 45 ci,then another 42 Harley.After that came a 48 knuclehead,The Herleys were all springer susp. it was a pretty rough ride,but I loved every minute of it.The next two were also hogs,a 52 and 57 panheads.The 57 was the last Harley.All but the James were hand bangers.In 1982 I discoversd Honda Goldwing,and haven't looked back.
Currently the main ride is a 2000 Vakrye and an 02 VTX.
I still ride most every day untill the roads get iced over.Next to sex,it's the most fun you can have without laughing.

Looks pretty nice. Carbs look like they were from a later model though.
