That looks good.
Been a while since I been on a ride.
Last time I had a chance a buddy stopped by with his new vmax and told me to take it for a ride, I said no thanks and he says don't be afraid, I said I'm not afraid of the bike just what I'll do when I get on it lol.

Aww hell, I'da swung a leg over and let er rip! I've serviced one of those new ones. They seem like tanks. Didn't get to ride it but as they always do, it sounded viscous. Really don't care for the looks.

I like the look and the radian as well and thats saying a lot since I'm not much of a Yamaha guy, not from experience, just mainly ran the gixxers and a few different Hondas. My first rd bike was an 84 nighthawk 700r .
I just need to know when to say no, speed is a drug for me and I'm an addict, I lie that I can get at least the rpm portion of the speed with the saws, like I said I ain't scared .

Track days are the best prescription for that, be it straight or not.

Went to bugorama 84 today.

last time i rode through here
In the 80s
Parvin Phillips lived at the top of this road.
It was paved in yellow bricks thousands and thousands of them.
In the 50s Someone in his family worked at a brick factory
And was allowed to bring seconds home.
About three miles of road was bricked.
It looked like a city street
In the middle of the woods.
That's one on the bank
Bright yellow.
I'm sure people reused them. had a customer's 575
Ran it a lot clearing trail

That green bus reminds me of first auto. Safari front windows and the 8 rectangular lites above the gutter. Mine was 10 years old and started red. Did some crazy driving in that. "Flew" her off a ramp that still exists in St. Louis county, every time the passengers split about even. "Do that again" or "take me back never riding with you again!" Found out who got to go on further adventures. Really liked the way torsion bars set us down so well Glad for memories

My first car too! 92 2.3 5speed 2 door. If you put 1.73 rockers on them from a 460 you get more out of the top!

Sounds bad azz! That’s what I like to hear! I remember seeing my first wheeling bug, 1 and second, I was in aw at 12! I was like I need that! I haven’t seen one like it since, I wanted to build one bad....then when still on the bus I saw my first, first gen camaro in a yard, and was like that had potential! Lol my first ride was an 84 Nissan 720 2wd 5-speed, I ported the head and put a web cam in it, I used to think it was fast! Lol
