More than the flag pole was listing!!!!
That was taken very early on the 5th! My daughters highschool boyfriend left his mechanical shop project leaning agains my garage. It started first pull and I had to take it out for a late night run. I found out the only brakes were the soles of my shoes and decided to call it a night be for I get a not so cool scar!

We used to stick the sole of our shoe up between the tire and the fork to slow 'em down.   ;D

I pretty much dress like Arnold (minus the sunglasses at night... since I'm not actually a terminator).



And yeah... I have the gun too.  It's for safety.   ;D




Yeah, yeah, yeah... and I wear a helmet too.  :)


Man that movie was awesome before I noticed that, but once I did, it became my favorite part.  Was that a 550? I was never sure.

I think it was a 750.  I wonder if there's a shot of the side covers?  The clip's on Youtube somewhere.

It's a 750.  You can tell by looking at the engine and exhaust in the first picture.

and the size of the brake rotor.

last time when i was on a bike (before the wreck), i had on black joe rocket ballastic jacket, alter ego pants, scorpion ex700 full face helmet, shift vertex gloves, and my steel toe workboots.  thankfully, the insurance paid to replace them all.

Biker look? I also ride a Goldwing so that would put me in the "Old fart" category I think.

Hey everyone. I love the way old school honda's look. I currently wear a full helmet, jeans, and a mesh jacket when I ride the 81CB. I think I look to much like someone that rides a crouch rocket, and that's not me (no pocket rocket either  :P). I seen an advertisement where a guy was wearing a suit and riding an older bike in the desert. He just had a half helmet and shades. To me that looks really cool, but not safe (no jacket/leg protection). So anyway, I was just wanders how you guys look on your CB? What do you think is cool? Sorry if this is the wrong area, also ignore the Hilfiger bottle....


I kid you not, I did a ride 2 years ago with Tommy Hilfiger and this guy (Tommy Dunn) as a promo for this cologne.  I was 1 of 9 riders and they dressed us up in Hilfiger jeans, Khaki blazer, and a 1/2 brain bucket.  I'm in the back row, 2nd from the right.

Riding the rental Harley was a nice treat.

I ride ALWAYS wearing my armored jacket, solid pants, HJC helmet and gloves... they saved my butt (more literally my right side) a couple years ago...

I was riding home from a church softball game on a 78 Zuk Gs400. I was following my wife so that I didn't have to worry about people not seeing my small bike at night. She was driving a dark green saturn. Anyway, up ahead I saw a bunch of deer standing in the road. She slowed down and I ASSUMED she was going to pass by them. They moved a bit and she hit the brakes hard. I locked up my rear wheel and as soon as she heard my tire she freaked and stopped. I slammed in to the back of my own car that I had purposefully been following for safety. I flipped up over the front passenger side and ended up in a ditch. Hardly a scratch on me save for 3 broken wrist bones.

Yeah that was embarrasing and still is but it goes to show that ANYTHING can happen. I was not inexperienced, I've ridden plenty of times at night. This happened about 1.5 miles from home.
