Sweet looking rides but just not for me. Stay safe on the roads this summer.

I may not get to ride mine here in Houston. All it does is rain.

Yeah, I lost 3 buddies last year to bike accidents. 2 of them were professional motorcycle builders that knew how to handle a bike. So, for know, I'm keeping the chopper I posted above and selling my daily ride temptation, the Thruxton.
Almost 30+ years of riding in Los Angeles under my belt, I'm not feeling like pushing my luck *too much* these days...

I used to own/ride a 1971 Yamaha 650 that was fun, tiny pics below.
Got it for free from a Contractor I used to work for, had been sitting for years. Cleaning carb and fuel lines was all it took to get it started. Gave it away to my brother when I had my first son. Got it back when I got divorced. Gave it away to a friend again when I had my first daughter.
Enjoyed riding, but never a "good" rider and had a few close calls so don't regret the decision. But loved to ride...
So many crappy drivers out there make the roads unsafe for bikers, I'll never forget one locally a husband/wife started arguing and cause a multi-vehicle pile up on the freeway and a dude on his cycle got tossed off the overpass and died. Like I said, hope you guys stay SAFE and injury free!

Same here, not for me. Too many shitty drivers....
trees don't have cell phones, I stay ''off road''.
Quoted from zr11990:Bigbossfan, did you ride that bike to the Texas Pinball Festival a few years back? If so I saw it there. I saw one like it if it wasn't yours. It has everything except a refrigerator.
LOL. Nope.

That sucks indeed but I would rather go out quick than get old and be tied to a wheelchair in a nursing home with some fat woman feeding me baby food.

If I buy a bike, I need ape hangers and tatoo sleeves.
#1. That would be too expensive, but I have talented friends that could hook me up on both.
#2. That would cut into my pin budget, and that would be a problem.
I will check back in when I have my mid-life crisis. Tattooed Hougie on a hog, coming up!

Beautiful streetfighter. I would love to own one some day. I have looked at the Kawasaki Z1000s as a cheap alternative.
Quoted from TZBen:My wife works in biotech and uses tissue from riders all the time.
Life advice. Dont be a dick
