Does anyone here ride motorcycles?!?

If your topic has nothing to do with Spyderco, you can post it here.

Pic heavy but bikes rule!!! And I love riding and all things bike. Most of my time is at the track. I also commute to work daily on a bike during the summer. Used to do touring and such as well on an old CBR600F2 with soft luggage. Want to start doing that again soon...

Syphen, awesome bikes! But tell me more about that 250- I bet that thing handles like a fine leather glove?

Some great bikes here. I remember doing a cylinder head overhaul on a Jap import CB250RR, our head machine could cut the valve seats(just) but we had to send the valves out to a diesel fuel shop for refacing, he was the only one who could hold those teeny-weeny valve stems.
Anyhow I have a 2001 Bonnie I shipped to the UK, a 2002 Bonnie project bike and a UK spec factory 1250 Bandit streetfighter that I ride most days.

I owned the one below but by no means would I consider myself a biker. I'm a fair weather weekend warrior without a steed right now at best.

My rainy day fund is screaming for a Triumph Street Triple or Aprilia Dorsoduro if the deal is right though and I'll be back in the saddle.
