A great starter bike that also provides enough fun for the more experienced. Two and a half years ago my wife decided to make her MC endorsement, after 20 years of being a passenger. She signed up for the MSF class with my daughter and son in tow. My daughter had just turned 18 and [...]
Allow me to introduce you to Black Betty, named after the song by Ram Jam. She is not really black, she is actually Metallic Midnight Sapphire Blue (a very pretty color, especially in the sun), but she is rock steady, and she’s always ready! “Bam-ba-Lam” I started riding at the age of 4 on a [...]
Hello my name is Sunshine! My owner named me Black Sunshine after Rob Zombie’s song, I was adopted from Cole HD in Bluefield,WV, by an avid rider that has owned other members of my HD family in the past, and he says I am the best of them all, the most comfortable and best handling [...]
This is my story of my, new to me, 2007 Yamaha Stratoliner S. I bought it back in the Fall of 2012 after a bad accident on my previous motorcycle. While healing I had a lot of time on my hands to search for and find this beauty on Craigslist for a great price. Because [...]
03 FJR, I bought it in February of 04 with 2k miles, it now has 56k. I have rode it through most of New England, upstate NY and west to South Dakota south to Colorado and back east. I had watched that bike when it was first introduced in Europe. I also still have my 86 [...]
I bought a new Honda Magna back in 1984 and after about 10 years sold it because I got married and had a couple kids, then became too busy too ride. The final decision to sell it was because we need a bed and just being married a few years, the Honda was the only [...]
My ride is a 1986 Harley Davidson Heritage Softail Classic. I purchased my bike about 17 months ago from some friends who no longer had time to ride due to having two small children. Though I had always wanted a Harley someday we were absolutely NOT looking to buy a bike. We happened to see [...]
I bought my 2005 BMW F650 Dakar two years ago because I wanted to explore some of the paths less-travelled, and didn’t want to mar the finish on my HD Electra Glide Standard. Well it’s been two years and 18,000 miles on the Beemer since then, and I’ve been having so much fun on it I sold the [...]
I bought this 2002 Honda RC51 used. I do a lot of track days and last summer at VIR (north) I lost the front end in turn one. If you know the track, you’re pinned in top gear through the front straight coming into turn 1. After scrubbing a lot of speed (in my case, not enough) [...]
