    I don't know how you guys with lots of motorcycles find the time to ride them all.

    Changed my mind after finding this one:
    [​IMG]
    200 HP, 218 mph max and only $38,888 (available now).

    Watch the video by Jay Leno, watch GPS turn 215 mph, watch it win Pikes Peak (overall cars & bikes):

    I see the future, but it isn't now.

    I technically have a second bike since I still have my ER6 which the wife is planned to use for practising with when she's getting her licence. But I think I'd go with an off road thingy for some gravel fun, a Ténéré perhaps? (the license inspector was nagging me over the radio my entire ride when doing the tests for my licence that I look silly on a Hornet and should buy a Ténéré, I guess it stuck :))

    The bike shop I work for just became a Zero dealer. For now they are a very narrow use bike, limited by range and charge time but MAN are they fun! If I had the disposable income I would have one in the garage. If you get a chance take one out (dealer want you to demo them) They will change your mind about electric bikes.

    If ya look around, there are some really nifty colored clothespins that will go with almost any paintjob. The best cards are from casinos. They are plastic coated. Don't use Tarot cards they are bad juju.

    Walking into the Vons a few nights ago I heard the most awesome sound, my head snapped so fast I'm surprised I didn't sprain it
    It was a Motus---what a piece of art--- had carbon exhaust that sounded amazing.

    After riding one for the better part of the day that sound is really addicting. 2nd and 3rd gear power wheelies were a blast.
