wow man very sick bike! grats bro
 
Now that is a present indeed! Enjoy it, you are blessed with people who enjoy to see you happy in life!
 
Gracias! When we sat down another salesman walked up and asked if she was letting me get the bike and she said, "I want him to have it!" That's my girl!!!

Definitely riding safe since I have no plans on replacing plastics or body parts anytime soon :P
 
you lucky dog you, congrats.... drive safely, mang and enjoy.
 
I'll practice restraint with the Cruiser vs. Crotch-rocket debate. :p

I had a roommate that owned a Ninja that I let park in the garage. That was hard for me. :lol:
 
That's a helluva bday present! Tell your lady right on!!
 
dang, very nice.. i'm jealous.. cant wait until i can get another bike.. its been too long.
 
Nice man. I was loving the good weather we were having here in Chicago. But now have rain. Can't wait to get back on my bike. Cuts my fuel cost so more money for supps. HAHA
 
Had someone ask me if I looked like a gorilla ****ing a football on it... lol. I'm a cruiser and crotch rocket kind of guy. Just sold my Boulevard C90 to my brother and wanted a bit more speed.

NICE!! When I wanted to buy mine, I did get the wifey's consent first. She likes to ride, but with Izz, it's kinda hard without having a consistent babysitter. But still, we get out on occasion. She complains when i want to buy more for the bike, but didn't complain when I bought it.

And definitely gear up, man! ATGATT....so says the 2-time member of the "Been Down" Club. :sad3:

Rocket bikes look fun, but I honestly can't even figure out how to get on one!

Fat guy in a little co-oat... :lol:

Went down last night fellas! Old man pulled straight into our lane oncoming and I was able to stop but one of the other riders couldn't and hit me, knocking me off the bike and causing him to flip his. Both are in the shop and we sustained minor injuries... the worst part is the bike only had 200 miles on it AND i may miss Rolling Thunder!!!!

that sucks, but glad you are OK. Thats the most dangerous things about riding bikes, is other people in vehicles not seeing you, or not caring.
 
Came home from signing the work order at the shop and my girlfriend's sister caught the basement on fire.It's been a ****ed up week and it's only Monday! I think I may have been cast in Final Destination 4, without my consent...

Dude! Suckage!!! But... welcome to the Club, as we say. Hopefully you've got full-coverage insurance. If so....start pickin' your mods! That's always the fun part...what to upgrade with the insurance tab. :D :D :D

After my first little accident - run in with a car - I realized my bike was too quiet. People pulled out in front of me more often. Now, you can hear me coming from quite a bit away. Loud pipes save lives...might just be true! In my case, I just wanted to drown out all the Harleys!!!

Put an exhaust on that li'l brit baby and tell your friend to STAGGER IT!!! :lol:
 
Wow, dude. I'm glad you're okay. That sucks bad. Too bad it's not like in GTA4 when they hit you and you just accelerate 500mph.

OMG, J! Thank GOD you're alright! Well, at least you got your crash outta the way. You should be good to go now.

sad to hear :( I crashed mine once...definitely not fun
 
Jayhawkk said:
I'm wondering if the crash thing gets reset for each bike you're on... I've been in accidents before!

I don't think so. Twice in one year for me, man! First was a car, second was at a stop with a wiggle on gravel and then POOT - down I went. I can't wait to see my next insurance statement... :( :( :(

I've had three accidents in the past 4 months... All three caused by people over 70 years old.

Ugh... Sucks, man. I've been in a lot of near-accidents and they've all been with either people in that age range or the very typical soccer mom in an oversized SUV on a cellphone pulling out in front of me. It's those reasons that I ride aggressively, or as I call it, cautiously proactive, most times and have my bike dressed up to be noticeable - loud Fuggin exhaust, 65/100w blue xenon headlamp, and at night, 144 red & amber LEDs. :D If I get hit by anything that isn't a bug or a bird, it won't ever be my fault! :lol:
