Honda Civic 10th gen Any motorcycle riders here? 76582A38-F454-4B10-AF8D-4FFCB3E2FC51

Now I love me a Honda... but ended up with a suzuki. Really wanted a Kawasaki but the dealer sold it when I pulled up.
2005 Sv650s with a bunch of goodies. The reason I neglect my civic hahaha ?‍♂

edit: as you can see, the bike moved the civic out of the garage ahahah

That Yamaha looks comfy as heck! What kind is it a vstar?
Yea, 1100 classic, dropped it 3" pull back risers, and aftermarket low profile seat. It's done some 12+ hour trips heading south several times. So has the other, but it wasn't as comfortable.

What is your guy's take on riding a bike? My family hates motorcycles, and they say I'm just gonna crash one day...:stirthepot: I dont mind it, the joy of riding is far more intoxicating than the fear of it.

A fellow rider just fell next to where I work. I believe he perished RIP.

Wear your gear fellas, and ride defensively in your limits. Take advantage of modern safety tech. It sucks to see accidents like these happening, when they're indeed avoidable by an experienced rider. There are far too many novice riders on sport bikes that are too inexperienced to ride imo. Take a safety course and wear your gear.

mmmm as a rider who has been down yes, be safe and wear gear always! Dress for the slide. What could havebeen a small injury took a couple months to heal. I feel as a rider you will go down sometime. It’show prepare you are for it.

Always always ALWAYS wear your gear! It's not a matter of if you will go down, but when. So many injuries could be prevented/lessened. Don't give in to the "cool crowd" that insists wearing protection will just make you look lame.

Luckily, my family is very supportive of my addiction. I just wish that my wallet could say the same...?

True man. I think gear makes you look sexy...haha

Ever since I took my I first slide I wear all of my gear all the time. I even recommend all riders wear the Turtle Helite Airbag vest. That, is a true life saver

I've got this 2009 Triumph Street Triple, which i've modded for a road/track use.

Sweet bike man, nakeds must be really fun on track.

I am seriously looking at the BMW f900r right now. The price tag is appealing...
