RE: OT: Bikes
Mayfair, I dig the solid rims and kinda ape hanger bars. Sweet bike. I have a 03' Honda RC51. I will try to post some pics sometime soon. If I was in the market for something other than a sport bike, I would check out that suzuki M3 boulivard. Very good looking bike, fast, and reliable. The engineering of the motor came from the hyabusa. I have had the chance to ride one and I will get up and go and very comfy. The Harleys are nice, but for the money and reliability you can usually buy 2 jap bikes that will last twice as long and go twice as fast. Hate to say that but sadly its true. On the other hand, if you are looking for a great resale value, go with a Harley.

This was the one that magically became my CTD when I gave it tothe dealership along with$25K.[sm=boohoo.gif] Before that I had a 99 Fat Boy like Mayfair's but Red and black and no ape hangers. I didn't have one single problem with either Harley. They both got 40-45 mpg even though I couldn't control the urge to twist the throttle. The price of used ones have really come down since there are so many out there. You can pick up one that's a year or two old all chromed up a lot cheaper than new.

That's a good lookin scoot you got there. I'm glad to hear that you ride it as well. Too many scoots spend too much time in the garage.

I ended up separating the extensor tendon from the bone. In order for it to heal, the doctor shoved a rod down my finger to immobilize it for about 6 weeks. Oh well, this gives me reason to take the truck out more.

Here they both are ...
There are a LOT of good bikes out there these days. I don't care what type of bike you ride, as long as you're in the wind. I will say though that the more and more American jobs are lost to overseas workers, the more and more I want to buy American reguardless of the cost. It's getting harder to do, but I try.
