After scoring a Nitto Racing cage at the RBW garage sale today, I took off
for a couple laps on the mountain. It was hecka breezy out, and lots of
downed debris from the trees near Rock City, making for slippery road
surface. Something I noticed was that, after a few weeks riding the

Until it becomes the subject of a Reader interview, I guess you're
right. FWIW, my dad's a motorcycle guy, I'm a bike guy. I like the
quiet, especially out in the woods, so the electric motorcycles do
appeal to me.

I have been riding motorcycles since 1990. For a while, about seven
years, i did not have a car, just my bicycles and my moto. I needed a
small truck and got out of them in 97, then got back into motos in 04.
We had taken a road trip from Cali to Wqshington state, and while

It's all been pedal powered for me for a decade or so, since I sold my
CBR1000, but in the last three years I've been working for Zero

I've owned and ridden motorcycles since the day I graduated High
School (Mom said that once I graduated I was free to do what I would).
I probably put more miles on the motorcycle but more days on the
bicycle. Evens out I guess. BMW motorcycles would equate well to

It's been awhile since my last ride - but I rode a BMW K75S. Started
in grad school - '87. Eventually rode the bike to Colorado when we
moved east, and back to California when we moved west. Having watched
numerous cagers do incredibly unwise things directly in front of me

I rode motorbikes for about 20 years, mostly cross-country tours with
a lot of miles and a lot of fun. Also did the Reg Pridmore Motorcycle
Racing School course. My main ride was a 1973 BMW R75/5 Long

Motorcycles surround me... My brother owns a '49 Harley Knucklehead
with awesome leather bags and he also owns a custom mid-70s Triumph
(chopped).
Another owns a BSA project bike that actaully may one day be rideable.
One of my best friends has a serious woody for old BMWs and owns at
least 4 of
Moto Guzzi V7 Classic. Great all around bike. Easy loafer around town,
as much fun as I'll ever be able to handle out in the country. Not a
super slab mega miler, but I went out to the Twin Cities and back
(almost 800 miles) in a 2-day trip this fall and survived.

I used to ride motorcycles. My last one was a HD Sportster 1200
Sports with a nice solo seat and quiet Supertrapp exhaust. Yup, an
anti-HD exhaust that is probably quieter than stock. It went away

I still have my nice
