Gas is $3.44 up to $3.65 in some places around me.

I had every intention of buying a bigger motorcycle this year, now I think I will keep what I have to give these oil companies less money.

My mother raised Alaskan Malamutes when I was a kid.  I remember many winters when we used to take the sled to do daily chores/errands/go to school, etc.  She still has the sled but sadly, until the past 2 years, there hasn't been much snow around here...

I f your not into sport bikes or Harleys and dont ride like a madman its not that different. I have a 650 V-twin that is more economical than my 450 chook chaser and my GSXR only uses slightly more than the 650.
No thank you Turkish, I'm sweet enough.

I'm still trying to figure out why diesel is higher than gasoline here and other places, but cheaper than gasoline (like it should be) in others
