I bought mine used from a friend who had developed arthritic legs. I was getting a bike at a nice price while doing him a favor as he didn't want to have a stranger test riding the bike and he didn't want trust making that type of financial transaction with a stranger. So, the bike really...

I also want to see what happened next. I bet the bikers kicked that driver's butt! I know the bikers that I roll with would do something like that. We have a pack mentality that is for sure. I'm not sure how the legalities of this shake out but I really don't like how the driver reacted to...

Has anyone seen this video? It is awful. Apparently one of the bikers hit by this dumb range rover driver is now paralyzed and seeking financial support. What the hell? Why did everyone act so stupidly here? Not only the range rover driver but the bikers for coming to a stop on the highway...

The best place I have ridden is just outside of my town. I've never taken the bike out of New York State so I am limited. We have a secluded rural area about 15 minutes away from my village where very few cars drive. It has a lot of straight aways and I never see cops in the area :). That's...

I ride all over town but I really like hilly areas. Especially the hills in the country. They are so scenic and lovely. My least favorite area to ride in is downtown because of the traffic. I don't enjoy biking in traffic for reasons that you can probably understand yourself. I would rather...

I can't stand fish. I'm actually allergic and I carry an epi pen for my food allergies. I can't kiss my hubby after he eats fish or I'll get sick. It is that bad! I've never even heard of fish schnitzel. Yes, get rid of the processed foods. They are killers. I've had a boat load of...

Here's a three minute video on a 2014 Honda CTX700N. I think he said his former bike caught fire :(. This bike only has 224 miles. The bike looks sick. He thinks the pegs are too close into the bike. I don't agree. I guess it depends on your height though.

Yes, I have a Fox helmet as well and I am pleased with it. I have not owned a bell helmet. That is a legitimate comparison about finding a proper pair of shoes that fit. I'd rather compare it to a fitted hat. You need just the right size and style for each individual person. Not every...

Yes, Trellum, the mileage is important. I would also consider the aesthetics. If it has faults then it is going to hurt your own re-sale value when you go to sell it. Make sure that you like the feel of the bike. Take it for a test drive and see how you feel on it while cornering. That is...

I'd love to tour San Francisco or anywhere in Northern California. I've only seen the pictures of the area. I plan on going there within the next 5 years but I am not sure how I could get my bike there. I guess I'd have to truck it there or possibly rent a bike in the area. I know it is...

Trellum, Do you know of any video games that are solely motorcycle oriented? Every racing game that I've played has either just cars or cars and motorcycles. I think it took the GTA series about 3 games to incorporate the use of a motorcycle. I'd like to play a game that is specifically all...

I got my moped when I was 28. I got my motorcycle at 30. But I first rode on the back of a motorcycle when I was in my early 20's probably 21 when a friend from college bought a bike. It was thrilling and I always had it in the back of my mind that I would get my own bike at some point in the...

Black is the color of mine and it is my favorite color. I have blonde hair that flows out of my helmet so it compliments the black bike very well in terms of colors. The red is too maroon and dark for my tastes. I don't care for white motorcycles at all. They look too soft to me. Also...

Mine is the same way. He drives a big truck and won't have anything to do with motorcycles. It would be nice to be a couple that both rides bikes. I can't even get him to ride my Ruckus moped. I don't know what to tell you about settling down your boyfriend in regards to the bike purchase...

Whenever I stop at a store, bar or even a stop light I get funny looks. It's like I'm an alien because I am a woman on a bike. People really need to get over it. I want to meet more female riders in my community. Right now I know of only one. Does anyone know of a way to meet fellow female...

Do it! You'll feel better within a few weeks, I guarantee it. The rest of my family is omnivorous. They even barbecue in the winter on the porch. I don't mind. I know who I am, what I like and that's how things are going to be. I think they've accepted that I am different. You can still...

Gran Turismo was the best game of its day. I beat the first one but it took forever. I invested a lot of my youth in that game but the graphics were sick for its time period. I also play GTA 5 obsessively. I ride around on a motorcycle in the game when i can find one. I think the driving...

Are there any vegans or vegetarians on the board? I recently converted to a vegan diet and it wasn't as hard as I expected. I was a vegetarian for the 7 years before I switched to veganism. The only thing I miss is the cheese on pizza. I am really happy that I made the change. I feel great.

Have you ever ridden your bike to the market and picked up groceries? I did it once when my car was out of service. I brought a backpack. It was a little odd walking through the market with a backpack on. I think people suspected me of stealing. I got a hand cart full of items and rode back...

Do you get hoots and hollers? I do when I park my bike or when men pass by me at high speeds thinking that they can say whatever they want because they won't see me again. Do you get any snide or sexist remarks? I rarely see any women on bikes so I sort of see why we get strong reactions.
