I've never had a bike but often pondered the thought of getting one. I think i'd kill myself on one, my car is fast enough, 4 wheels and all

Lino, if you ever need someone to "bike-sit" for you, ship it up here and I'll take REAL good care of her ;-)

I learned how to ride last May.

So far I've had:
'89 Kawasaki EN450
'00 Honda Shadow Spirit 600
'99 Suzuki Bandit 600

current:
'99 Kawasaki ZRX1100 - took four tries to find the PERFECT bike for me.
I've been going out for a ride on average once a week this whole winter!!

Sure thing Chris

I've been taking my bike out every now and then. I used to ride it in the winter as long as it was above 42 degrees. But now...well i just don't have the time.

and thanks for the compliments on the bike. right now i'm into sportbikes..but within about 5 years i'll also get a cruiser as well.
