You admire yourself in shop windows when you ride by on the street.
:leaving: Pigface1 08-05-2004, 01:10 PM :lol: There's no helmet law here, so the squids are plentiful.
Something I notice a lot lately are the sport bike riders who bring their helmets, only they have them hanging off the helmet clip when they ride. :lol: Jackazzes.
The tank tops and sandals is also one of my favorites. :D
I dropped my bike in the driveway, though, so I guess I can't point the finger too much. :ack: Need4Speed 08-05-2004, 02:31 PM I noticed alot of riders up the Bike Fest last month, having their helmets strapped to the bike..Im like, whats the point, so people think your responsible atleast some of the time?? :ack: I mean if your sitting in bump n go traffic, maybe thats one thing to take it off, since your not moving awhole lot (which was the case closer to the grounds) but these guys/gals had thiers strapped to the bike going to I-83 at over 100 mph.. :shock:
Im guilty of looking at myself in windows when riding by..some i'll alittle bit of a squid I guess too :lol: Pigface1 08-05-2004, 03:03 PM This just reminded me of a buddy in highschool that had all the mirrors in his car set so he could look at himself. lmfao Aaron 08-05-2004, 05:53 PM ya, the guys that ride with the helmets floating on their heads is the best. or even better, the helmet strapped to the side of the bike. Aaron 08-05-2004, 05:54 PM have you seen people who ride with the helmet on their arm, lol :smilelol: Need4Speed 08-05-2004, 08:45 PM I dont understand the deal w/ quarter or half shells either to be honest...most sportbikers wear full face, for obvious reasons..but the quarter & half shells will protect the top of your head, but hell, what about the rest :shock: I mean, if you go down, the top of your head is nice n safe, but your face, the sides and back of your head are all mangled up..I just dont understand. I know b/4 the PA helmet law was lifted, it was a rebel act for alot of riders, wearing only the bare minimum to be legal, but now that its lifted, they still wear them alot of the time..why bother..but thats just me.

speaking of newbie mistake along those lines, I was washing my bike yesterday, and wife came out with the amor-all..and was like, honey do you want me to make your tires shine like the ones on the car ??? :shock: :shock:
Fortunately I was able to stop her as she was putting the amor'all on the rag!! :lol: Gas Man 08-07-2004, 02:35 PM speaking of newbie mistake along those lines, I was washing my bike yesterday, and wife came out with the amor-all..and was like, honey do you want me to make your tires shine like the ones on the car ??? :shock: :shock:

she cant even get my 83 yamaha off the kick stand, so needless to say, she'll be looking for something along the lines of an EX500, GS500E, CBR600f2, etc. She "should" be able to handle that. ;) GSXR1000DJ 08-08-2004, 08:26 AM Good to hear. Keep us post as it happens. Always nice to see and hear of husband and wife riding together. :) Gas Man 08-08-2004, 08:40 PM she cant even get my 83 yamaha off the kick stand, so needless to say, she'll be looking for something along the lines of an EX500, GS500E, CBR600f2, etc. She "should" be able to handle that. ;)
If you're looking for a EX500 here's one. This guy is maticulus (sp?) as you know what and the bike is super clean.
For sale 2000 Kawasaki EX500 Ninja. 5,900 miles and very well maintained. Like new condition. New tires, brakes and tinted windscreen. $3,300 or best offer. :bike:
