So.....did you put on the Cape and Cowell before going ridding? :D

Dont own a bike. I just paint em. First one is one that I did for a young lady. Everything on the tank is airbrushed, including the stylized HD logo. The 2d one is part of a three tin set. The base is PPG's Black Metalflake, the "True Fire" effect is House of Color Candy. By rights the 2d one should be "Purple".

2005 Honda Shadow 1100c - Hard Krome Shorty Pipes, Corbin Seat, JET kit, K&N filter, drag bars, etc. Will post a picture after work.

Hi, my name is SOGvet, and I'm a motorcycle-aholic.. Hey, I don't fish, and I don't play golf.. I just do bikes...

In no particular order.. (I couldn't post pix of 'em all - TS will only let me post five)

'02 Firefighter Road King (tweaked just a bit)
'07 BMW R1200R
'77 BMW R100/7
'71 Norton Commando
'69 Triumph T120R Bonneville (less than 300 miles on a total nut & bolt, crankshaft out restoration)
'01 Triumph Bonneville Street Tracker
'03 Triumph Centennial Edition T100 Bonneville
off to Chicago this weekend to pick up #8 - '93 HD FXLR Low Rider Custom w/1800 miles on the odo

WTF.. here's the other two..

The orange & silver bike is my '03 Centennial Edition Bonnie; the black bike is a '01 Triumph Bonneville Street Tracker that I built - the same bike that nearly sent me to meet my maker. The bridge railing in the photo is what I whacked with the back of my noggin at 45+mph two years ago. If I hadn't been wearing good gear, I wouldnt' be typing this now.

No Safety Nazi speeches from me, but you'll never see me with a beanie on my head ever again. I was lucky, and I know it..

Pix of the FXLR to follow when I go get it..

Ride safe!.. and often!..

That is no BS, gents.

CC really does have seven, almost EIGHT beautiful bikes parked in his one-car garage.

I would imagine the NCDMV knows him well, and corresponds with him regularly.

The Bonnie is in the bed of my truck!!! I picked it up this afternoon and will be unloading it tomorrow evening, after I pick up my buddie's ramp!!

Chris,

You are right, it does not sound like my '71 Bonnie!!! It is so smooth running, I can't believe that it is a Triumph!!! Also, you are absolutely on target about the price!!!! It was $8400 out the door, TT&L included!!!

Pics to follow!!!:D

Thank GOD for this LONG WEEKEND!!!:D

Later
Martin

Congrats, Martin.. Watch out for those nugs in cages.. it's open season or riders.

When Meridian Motorcycles was still in downtown Fayetteville they bought bikes by the boatload and had pretty good prices.
I got a '67 305 scrambler and beat it to death on the fire trails and trips to combat alley.

They also sold Trumpets, Beezers, and Nortons. Those were all some beautiful bikes.
I bought a '68 Bonneville for $1100, still got it.

Funny thing was the ramp down the side of the store to the street.
Many a would be biker got his cherry popped in that ramp.
"You sure you know how to ride this thing kid?"

"Yeah, yeah, sure....." ZOOM!

There were some funny dents on the store across the street.

I own a 1987 Honda Magna V45 (700CC), bought it from an older guy who had some operations done and couldn't ride anymore. Only 11000 miles on it when I bought it and as of yesterday it had 22000 miles on it.

V4 goodness!:lifter

Well, I took it out today for an hour ride.............that was 4 hours ago!!!:D

I rode it around locally for about an hour, then I went to the Dealership in Ft Worth back to Grapevine & then home. 75 miles on it so far. At 60 mph, the only vibration you feel is your pants legs flapping!!!

MANY MANY THANKS Chris, you were SPOT ON!!!

I own a 2002 honda shadow 750.

I feel embarrassed with all these classic cruisers but.... I ride a 2004 Suzuki GSX-R 750, original owner, knock on wood..never been down..yet. I mean the bike not me.

2001 FLHR, with some minor engine mods.

TR

2008 Street Glide...no engine mods, yet...

Hey, TR...who picks up your pine cones...?
