The idea here is simple, post pictures of your ride(s), the story behind them and why you feel all tingly between the legs when you're in the driver's seat ;).
I'll start with my one and only ride, a 1994 Suzuki Gs500E. It's not the fastest, the most comfortable nor the prettiest bike around, but it's mine and I love it. I bought her with about 64K kilometers, and added about 10K myself. Treated any spots of rust and repainted everything. I also replaced some worn wiring, lightbulbs, fuses and the like. Changed oil & filter, cleaned, adjusted and synchronised carbs. A month later I did a valve clearance adjustment because I simply didn't know if the previous owner had done it.
The last thing I did was adding a 12V and UBS power outlet, and replacing the tachometer and odometer with a digital one. Before summer I'll change the chain and sprocket, and I gotta get her a new set of rubbers. I've been rolling on a pair of BT45, I'll probably go for something more touring-oriented as I have some long trips in sight.

Some pics of her last trip, getting there was no walk in the park, but it did pay off! :x

Had her since she was 9 months old with 1000 miles.....now's she's up to 55,000. And heated handgrips are the greatest invention in the history of biking.
Before the ZX-10R was an R6

And before that:

Actually, between the R6 and the ZX-10 was a GSX-R600....but I don't have any pics cos that was a hateful bike that bits fell off on a regular basis.

Now that's a beautiful crotch rocket!

Don't have any pics of the bike - just a little 125cc scooter.
But here's a video of me driving to the golf course and late for a tee time on it:

1. Yes it is worth the risk. You have to do something where there's a risk of dying every day or how do you know you're alive?
2. OMG. Dude, you let your wife ride a superbike with no leathers? You absolute nutter.

1. No it isn't. I live for my wife and kids and any chance I have of minimizing dying ahead of my time I am going to do. I will not put myself in harms way on purpose to "feel alive." There are too many people that do not pay attention on the roads around here. It is not worth the risk of leaving my wife a widow and my kids without a father just so I can ride a motorcycle.
2. We were in an undeveloped subdivision where she could ride without worry of any traffic. She probably hit 30mph at most in the straightaways. She was pretty much just putting around. When I bought her her Ninja 250r she had leather.

This was my first motorcycle. 1998 Kawasaki Vulcan 750. I was the third owner, with something like 25k miles on it. My girlfriend's car had been totaled in a wreck, she didn't have insurance and the person that hit her was fighting like a mo'fo not to pay up, so I could either buy her a car, or buy myself a motorcycle and loan her my car. Obviously, I bought the bike. It was a rough ride when I got it, carb trouble, oil hadn't been changed in god knows how long, but I got it cheap, and when I finally got a mechanic to fix it up, it held on well until I got run over. It was then replaced with:

2014 Kawasaki Vulcan 900, brand spanking new (They assembled it after I signed the papers. It's never even been test-ridden by anyone but me). She's my daily-ride, regardless of the weather. Just hit 250 miles on it, and the saddlebags are on order. Gonna throw some LED lights on it to try to be more visible (My last bike was wrecked when I got rear-ended in the early morning. Anything I can do to be more visible is good IMHO) but other than bags and some lights, she's perfect how she is. I LOVE the white-wall tires.

I remember your post when you bought her.
Only 250 miles still? Come on lad, you're not trying.

My baby.. bought with 0 miles back in December, has about 1200 on it now..

I ride every day to and from work, but I live barely 15 minutes from there. Things are all so close, the miles just don't stack up! I've only had to put gas in it twice since I bought it!

Not as effectively as proper riding equipment. I have attended too many accidents with badly equipped riders in jeans and no gloves.

Brought home brand spankin new ..I remember the first time I saw our Hemi Challenger, just after sundown..
..it just took my breath away. Wife and I bought the car pretty much sight unseen from Bill Luke Dodge.
I had test driven one but there just was no way I was gonna own another black car after two black Vettes.
So they had to bring this one up from Tucson ..
I traded my '97 black Vette coupe, 6 gear ..and our 2003 Nissan pickup for it.

Wife and I get more comments than we ever did with Vette's .. anytime, anywhere, any age group :)
ie: had two older ladies (in their 60-70's) walk up behind us and comment how beautiful the car sounded ..even.
( had the resonators removed just after we brought it home ..it sounds like a Hemi should, now, even idling :)
Even had people tell me it was a great restoration .. I had to point out it was new and you could get one in almost any flavor from Bill Luke Dodge :D
Now it's comin up on two years old . .just ticked over the 10k mileage mark .. could not be more into it.
We take it to Phoenix Cruise nights (they have 'em twice a year) .. I let the smoke out of the back tires a bit when I am there.
For the Spring Cruise my son and his son accompanied me.
My grand son heard a blown car doin a burn out ahead of us and asked 'WHAT WAS THAT??!!!'
'Dragons' I said -evil grin-
I really do enjoy our Big Red Hot Rod Dodge :)
Almost too much fun at times.

My much modded RD400 was loud... Too loud. making 72 hp, I had to run cold plugs, or the electrodes would melt. However, that meant preventing the plugs loading up, which meant no idling for more than a few seconds. So, it required almost constant blipping of the throttle... Nothing is more annoying than a 2 stroke that sounds like two berserk chainsaws, except a 2 stroke that requires clearing plugs....
Ring-ging-ging-ging... Ring-ging-ging-ging... at around 100 Db.... Didn't endear you to anyone.

Loud pipes make car drivers look around for the source of the noise. Before I ever rode, when I would hear a loud engine around me, I would look around to see where it's coming from, and if your bike is SEEN by other drivers, your a thousand times safer... Granted, I don't want SUPER loud pipes, to where the neighborhood hates you, but enough to be heard.

There is a.modicum of evidence supporting this but as stated, loud pipes mostly pass people off, as well as landing you fines

I can say for certain that if any motorcycle comes close enough to my Mercedes that I can hear the pipes, he's a split second away from being rolled over lol.

Anyone turning up after a bike accident needing skin grafts for wearing inadequate protection should be refused treatment and dredged in salt.
Being too hot in leathers is no excuse. If Valentino Rossi can wear full leathers and race for an hour in Californis in mid summer, then there's no excuse :joystick:
-
I used to be in the "Loud Pipes" mindset but not anymore. After 40 years of licensed riding, I realize it is my awareness that will save my life because trusting "cagers" to be aware is for fools. I can also hear an approaching car and gain an advantage just from hearing the "sing" of their tires on the pavement.
I wear a helmet, gloves, jacket (even in the summer ,in Arizona), boots, and jeans everyday, and I do ride to work every single day, unless it is raining which here, is about 5 times a year. I have a full leather roadracing suit, gloves and boots that I put on when I go for a ride into the mountains. I think safety gear is a matter of risk management against comfort and convenience. Even cagers would be safer if they wore a helmet when driving a car, but they don't and there is no law making them do so. It is a choice we all must make.
Saying that someone hurt on a bike should not receive treatment isn't funny.
Saying someone getting near your cage with load pipes means you are going to run them over isn't funny.
I've got a new bike. I suck at getting pictures from my phone to this board. Any of my friends wanna help an old man out? PM me your phone number and let me text you a picture so you could kindly post it for me please.

Agree 100%. I too wear jacket, boots, gloves, jeans, and a helmet on a daily basis. No matter how hot. Granted it is not as much protection as a full leather suit, but it is good protection, and as Z said, it's all about risk mitigation, vs comfort. Im willing to take a little more risk to be comfortable around town. Getting out on the back roads and railing, I will definitly wear my full 1piece leather suit, and my race boots, along with gauntlet style gloves and back protector. I also enjoy doing track days, so the same equipment applies there...
Protective equipment should be the rider/drivers choice. I choose to ride protected, but noone should be forced to if they don't want to be, just as seat belts shoudl not be required to be worn..
I find the statement of someone injured in a bike accident should not be treated to beyond not funny, and very offensive and plainly, it pisses me off.
The same goes for the "run over" with loud pipes. Motorcyclists have as much a right to the road as you do, in your side impact - air-bag laden cage. It's all about awareness. Be aware that we are out there, be aware we arent as easily seen as another cage. Stop texting while you are driving. Look twice, and maybe you won't cause us to not go home to our families that evening.

I went to a bike smash at relatively low speed. Older guy wearing leather jacket, gloves and helmet, jeans and riding boots. He came off at about 35 MPH. He struck no road furniture or other vehicles and his leg was chopped meat. His right hip and both knees had visible, ground up bone. I have been riding since 1994, I ride everyday and wear full leathers, gloves, boots and helmet, with a back protector, or I don't go out. It may be convenient in jeans, it is also short sighted.
We have a legal requirement to wear a helmet in the UK, if you really need to force guys to wear a helmet on a 200mph machine, you should simply repeal the law and allow Darwin law to take effect :old:
-
That is exactly what I am saying. Noone should be forced to protect themselves from themselves.. Laws should be in place to protect people from other people, not from their own choices.

Thank you Silver!
The first picture is My new 2014 CBR1000RR SP.
The second is me getting it right at the racetrack for the win in 2006.
The 3rd is me getting it wrong for the DNF waaay back in 1991.

Beautiful CBR, had a 600RR before I got the Ducati. Id love to do true racing sometime, I LOVE track days, can only imagine true racing is that much better!

I can say for certain that if any motorcycle comes close enough to my Mercedes that I can hear the pipes, he's a split second away from being rolled over lol.
Please attempt to do so. This way, we motorcycle riders can own your Mercedes, your house, and a few years paychecks to boot.

You just have to go for it. There is no comparison. I raced for 20 years and was lucky enough to win over a hundred races. Practicing and track days are really fun, and you think you got it down and you got it under control ....... then you pull up to an actual start finish line, take your grid position and wait for that green flag to fly......................yeah, it isn't even close to the same. Racing however is not really more fun than trackdays but it is certainly more exciting. Oh, and race at that same track you have been doing trackdays on, knowing your best times and watch seconds fall away from your best lap.

You... guys do realize he was more than likely making a comment about how effectively his Merc mutes exterior noise right? That's how it reads to me.
Wanted to get into bikes when I was a whelp. The more I looked into it and the more I came to realize that "needing to ride as though the rest of the vehicles on the road are actively and maliciously trying to kill you" was not an overstatement, I chose to remain a cager. Well, that and full body leather in the summertime is not appealing to me.

Sounds amazing.. I may just shoot for doing so next summer. I mainly do track days at Mid-Ohio and Putnam... (live in Cincinnati, so those are the closest)

Although I think I would get a dedicated track bike if im going to do "true" racing.

I've seen enough accidents involving motorcycles to last a lifetime. I still ride and comments about 'rolling' a rider tend to infuriate me.

My 3 day weekend rental for the trip to VonMessa's. 2014, 305 HP V6 with 7,000 miles. After 5.5 hours my arse got sore, luckily I was only 1/2 hour from his house (or mine) at that point. Ran 80 MPH + the entire length of PA (twice) and averaged 28 MPG with the top down. 80 to 100+ going uphill was surprising easy to say the least.
Best $100 I've ever spent at a rental car company. Fun car!

Now there's a bargain.
Mrs Danny is hooked on Mustangs, and when I looked for a rental in the UK you are looking at £350 ($600 approx.) for 50 mile round trip, and you don't even get to drive, someone from the rental company drives !!!!!
It's cheaper by half to take a 45 minute pleasure flight in a Cessna/Piper :bhead

Sweet Camaro! Nice to see another Camaro with the GM chicklets.

Ah yes... Cyber Gray Metallic... Such a good color. I wish they would've kept that one going.
SS or RS?

I know this is a different kind of bike, but it's what I love: Mountain biking. This is my new 2014 Diamondback Recoil Pro. It's not the top of the line by any means but for what I use it for it's exactly the right bang for exactly the right buck.

And this is my classic baby. I've owned her since 1993. I paid very close to the original sticker price for her back then: $2,750. She is an unrestored 1971 Plymouth Roadrunner 383 4-speed all matching numbers with 38,600 original miles. The only thing I did was get some factory paint from the Chrysler Newark Assembly plant back in 1998 and paint her in Chrysler Deep Amethyst Pearlcoat.
