Any motorcyclists here?

Hey, two-wheel brothers...I learned to ride on rented Yamaha 250's in Bali, where I've been several times to study and perform with the gamelan (orchestra) that I play with here in Denver. I got myself an '80 Motoguzzi V50 (500cc) in 1990 and have been riding it ever since, weather and authorities permitting. My Harley buddies call it a pasta-burning moped, but it feels like plenty of bike to me...dif'rent strokes, right? I used to ride to open jams with my '64 P-bass uncased and strapped to my back; I'd never do that with my Ric, but I figure the P is nearly indestructible by comparison...if you're ever locked out of your car, a Fender is as good to have as a brick.

Count me in as a motorcycle enthusiast.
90 Harley FXRT, 01 Buell S3T. Commute to work daily. Strap my tools to the back pad and ride the carpool lane.
Weatherman says it will be pushing 80 in the SF bay area this weekend. That should bring them all out.

My 1993 Honda Nighthawk 750 that I bought new (NOS) in 1995:

I made two 6000-mile trips on it, but use it occasionally for local commuting now.

I had a 1974 Kawasaki Z-1, very fast, and didn't look at all like a crotch rocket. I'd like to get another one, was all motor and wheels.

Sean, I've tried to post pictures to this board, It doesn't happen for me. I'll try again, I don't have time right now.
