Opinions on Motorcycles?

Thanks guys,
I've had a smile on my face since I rode it.

So stoked.

I want my DR 650 back. Always leave a lot of room in front of you at stop lights, that way if you have to escape, you aren't up the ass of the car in front of you.

F$$king rode my bike home today from the tree shop, so much fun.

Went down great highway, watched the sunset on the surf from two wheels.

Haha. I'm getting street tires though.
Some pretty big knobs on those tires right now.
So I think I'm going to get it into the motoshop for street tires
and rewire the blinkers, brake light and horn so they work.

Passed my 15 hours of instruction and my drive test and written test.

Anyway, hoping not to be a statistic anytime soon.

Cool man! leave those knobby's on and hit up the beach.

Here's my little baby

2006 Yamaha R6 - 17500 RPM redline !

JamesTX · Feb 3, 2009

That's a nice looking bike.

FJR · Feb 3, 2009

Nice Buzz. I always wanted an R6 when i was growing up. I've had to have a bunch of knee surgeries, and because of that my knees will not bend for enough to ride one. I cant even get my feet back to the pegs. So I had to get something different.

Its so damn cold so she is hibernating right now.

Edit: Not sure why my jeans turned out red in the photo.. yikes!

MasterBlaster · Feb 3, 2009

Wow, is that a hardtail?

FJR · Feb 3, 2009

Yeah. That pic was taken when I cracked my exhaust in half.

MasterBlaster · Feb 3, 2009

I can't imagine (or maybe I can!) how the ride would be. It sure looks nice, though.

FJR · Feb 3, 2009

Sorry for the repost.

I'm getting it out of the way while I'm young MB, don't think my back will handle it when I get older. Motorboatin' around in town is fine and dandy, but when you hit a bump at 100+ its a whole 'nother story.

MasterBlaster · Feb 3, 2009

They make awesome suspension systems that come pretty damn close to the cool, ass-dragging look of a true hardtail. Ever thought about something like that?

FJR · Feb 4, 2009

Like this?

This a hidden shock. They are bad ass too, they just cost more money.

MasterBlaster · Feb 4, 2009

For sure, something like that. I like bikes that look like they're missing parts.

brendonv · Feb 4, 2009

Ever see Indian Larry's bikes Butch?

IMO those things are badass.

MasterBlaster · Feb 4, 2009

Yes, I've watched all that stuff. He was the one that died from cancer.

brendonv · Feb 4, 2009

IIRC he fell off his bike doing one of his infamous stunts he's done a hundred times. He would stand on the seat with no hands, fell and hit his head. I beleive it was during one of those biker build off shows.

Paul B · Feb 4, 2009

Yup, head trauma.

Ahhh. I stand corrected!

Paul B · Feb 5, 2009
