Any Motorcycle owners? what do you ride?
 
I love driving my Boxster but I also love riding my motorcycle.
I currently have a 02' Yamaha R1 tricked out for the track. (Don't like those chromed out rice rockets)
I know Andicati gots some nice Ducatis.
Here are some Pics of my R1, one for the track, one for streets.

Thanks!

I have not ridden a Monster but really like them. I understand the feel of the two bikes are very similar.

If you get one, pls post pix!

Besides driving my boxster I enjoy riding my bike through the Appalachian Mountians in Maryland and Pennsynania. It's a 1987 Super Magna Honda crusier and I would put it against any Harley, except maybe the V-Rod.

2000 Honda VFR 800Fi
 
I don't know what it is about the sound of a unique engine, but I absolutely love the sound of the gear-driven cams on this V-4 motor!

SV650 for track and occasional canyon carving...

Second pic should be familiar to all SoCal riders...

Brucelee 03-11-2005 11:46 AM

My motorcycle is a mint condition 1979 Yamaha Special 750 that was purchased brand new in 79 by my father. My father just recently got a brand new Honda Gold Wing that i ride once and a while and it is an amazing machine.

Morelli 04-20-2005 06:45 PM

When I'm not in the Box, my roommate and I are carving canyons in SoCal (are you jealous yet? =)

I'm on an '04 GSX-R600, and my roommate is on an '04 GSX-R750.

Brucelee 04-20-2005 06:48 PM

Good stuff. I was out yesterday in Rancho Sante Fe carving a bit. Took a turn a wee bit too fast and had to back it off very quickly.

Hmmm, spring must be here.

That WAS close!

:cheers:

Morelli, nice bike. you ever go to the Rock Store? maybe i've seen you.
I ride an 2002 R1, you can scroll down all the way and check out the pics of my bike. ride safe.... :cheers:

scoobyrex27 04-21-2005 02:19 PM

I love my boxster but nothing beats riding the monster. It's a 1999 M750 with lots of carbon.
