Can't beat them for off-road tho. IMO.

05 Dyna SG and my wife rides an 05 Sporty soon to upgrade her to a Heritage Classic.


Cant beat them on-road either :wink:

I beat my buddy's 1200cc sportster with my 350 Banshee...

I got a KLR 650 and even the biggest H.D is still a pig but can be easily passed since an H.D rider doesnt know how to ride the thing in the corners anyway :lol:

LOL :lol:
have you ever ridden an HD???

It basically corners like a bookcase. They're cruisers (period)

W/ exception of the VRSC (Night Rod) I have owned several crotch rockets in my time. KZ1000 w/ custom turbo kit (too fast for it's own good) RD400 etc.

I still love my HD's tho.

I had a little pocket rocket (Honda CBR 600) that was great fun in the North Georgia mountains but had to get rid of it when I decided to go without health insurance for awhile. Either I was going to lay it over and get some serious road rash at the very least or some other crazy was going to plow into me. I saw it happen far to often to take my chances.

I just bought my step-dad's old '82 Maxim 650, and am in the process of learning to ride it. It's a lot cheaper than continuing to put gas in my conversion van, at these prices...

I've actually got 3 motorcycles, soon to be 4.

I've got a 1971 Honda CB350, a 1978 Honda CB750, and a 1979 Kawasaki LTD400 - I got all 3 for free.

The CB350 was abandoned in a storage garage, they asked if I wanted it, I said sure. Had a friend who owns a garage do an impound sale to get me a title (doesn't run).

The CB750 sat in a friend-of-a-friend's garage for 15+ years not moving, has 13k miles on it, got the title, but it needs all new carbs, rebuilding them wouldn't help (doesn't run).

The Kawasaki was a friends bike, it died on the side of the highway and he had no way to tow it - he was so angry that he said if I could get the thing off the highway, then I could have it, just so he wouldn't have to pay the tow/impound fees for leaving it on the side of the highway (kinda runs, I wouldn't trust it to go further than 10 miles from my house).

The 4th bike I'm getting is going to be a 2008 Kawasaki Ninja 250 - it's a tiny little crotch-rocket, but something about that advertised 70 mpg appeals to me, and brand new the bike runs under 3 grand, also, I love the sound of that little engine spinning up towards 14,000 RPM's.
