I guess I've got to be Matt's number three since 84 isn't riding on the street any longer and 77 doesn't have a bike

Well it would be more comfortable than the back seat of the 675 or the slew of 600s. Let me think on it.

Well, that does seem to be a problem. BUT there is a 500 around somewhere and that yellow banana runs too (that is in my garage). On the other hand, I heard you were wanting a "crotch-rocket" instead a cruiser. Is that true? Riding season will be done as soon as it gets too cold so you have some time to either fix up the white beauty or get a different one. Ask Santa for one for Christmas. :D
Yes I want a crotch rocket, or if you prefer a "super sport motorcycle". :???: Until then I don't know. Maybe I will see how cheaply I can bend this 900 back in to riding shape so that I can sell it when the weather gets nice.

EDIT: And if you had seen it you would no longer be calling it the "White Beauty". :SideSplittingLaughter:

Hey there is an oldWing and a couple of connies you could jump on the back of. I hear they are pretty comfy on the back seat.

Already asked, they said it would be cool except that they don't date fat chicks. And even on a Wing or a Connie I would find a way to put to much weight on their wrists. :icon_xxx:

I do so have a bike, you weiner. It's just that the two of you are doing an extremely poor job of convincing me that riding a motorcycle is a good idea.

At what point did "good idea" become a requirement for any of your fun and leisure activities?

You know I hate to say it but so far my experiences with it so far have not really been all that bad... :HeadScratch: But I reckon I probably have a lot more of them to learn on.

This is true. I do love motorcycle gear. In fact when I get on without my gear on (like going to get gas at MSR) I would swear that the bike doesn't handle worth a damn. I have no idea how people get on the highway like that.
