TheX Posted July 9, 2019 Share Posted July 9, 2019 Today is the 2nd anniversary of the day I got CLOBBERED on my beautiful Ducati. So many broken bones, so much nerve damage, and no more riding motorcycles. I'm still dealing with nerve issues in my spine. Please pay attention to what's happening in front of you on the road, and leave a proper amount of distance *just in case*. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
natas1321 Posted July 9, 2019 Share Posted July 9, 2019 Miss having my Moto's but too many drivers out there that do not pay attention and one or two too many close calls.

TheX Posted July 10, 2019 Author Share Posted July 10, 2019 I had over 40 years and 800,000 street miles...and a LOT of track days. The Panigale was a great bike. It died with 10,000 miles on it at 7 months old. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JRA Posted July 12, 2019 Share Posted July 12, 2019 Got this 81 CB650 a few years ago, unhipstered it and fixed a bodged head gasket job from the previous owner. It took about 150 miles of putting around town for me to figure out I didn't need to be riding a motorcycle around Austin. I enjoyed working on it a lot more than riding it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AntonioGG Posted July 12, 2019 Share Posted July 12, 2019 I love those CBs! I've wanted to get a CB350F just to work on it, then sell it. My HS buddy's dad used to do that for fun and actually made money buying and restoring old off-road bikes then selling them. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JRA Posted July 12, 2019 Share Posted July 12, 2019 Been thinking about doing another one but I'm lacking the room, too many bicycles. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
natas1321 Posted July 12, 2019 Share Posted July 12, 2019 I do miss have a motorcycle but all it takes is a ride or two to remember why I quit riding, plus I have the mountain bikes now and they take up most of my free time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheX Posted July 12, 2019 Author Share Posted July 12, 2019 (edited) I loved great sport/superbikes. Always did at least 25K miles a year. Edited July 12, 2019 by TheX 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
