I am not a fan of the overpowered crotch rocket. Love the sound and power but at 53 I am a cruiser with hopefully some good power with S@S engine and some loud pipes. Not this summer, maybe, but may start building in fall if the money is there. My buddy keeps bugging me. Just put a furnace in his garage and is dying to help me build one. A lot cheaper that way, although I could not do it myself.

Both my neighbors have cruisers. Good bikes but they are too slow for my liking. Engines sound great but they take forever to pass when we go on trips and a split second could be the difference between life and death when you need the extra power.
 
I can't fathom going 60mph without a helmet. Your face is gonna get sandblasted by bugs and dust.

Just came back from the bike show. Sat my ass on every fokken bike available. I want all these:

HD Street Bob
Kawasaki Z1000
BMW S1000R
MV Agusta Brutale 800
Triumph Thunderbird Storm
Triumph Street Triple R
Moto Guzzi V7 Racer

That's all.

You don't get sandblasted when you have a proper windshield. I usually wear a helmet on the highway, though.

Nice list.

I'm in love with it. Signed up for a test ride (no way I can afford it this year, I just wanna ride it.)

That's my fat ass on it.

Tshirt weather today.

Strange noise still coming from the rear wheel. I'd better get that checked out, I'm not in the mood to do it myself. I'd imaging having the thing seize up would be a pretty bad experience.
