Had a Ninja500 starter bike for my first ever MC. Moved into a Honda Sabre 1100 Cruiser because insurance was just way out of control for a sport bike bigger then 500cc. Dog took me out after 11,000 miles the first summer I had the Sabre. That's when I got the vette. Too many ignorant aholes on the road for a MC anymore. The dog that caused my accident was being walked by some dumbarse owners without any leash along side a state road. I walked away with just a scrath on my lower leg. The officer that showed up marked it as their fault and their home owners covered the damage. Basically paid for the entire MC and just a bit more.

As much as I absolutely loved MC riding and still get the urge to ride again, I probably never will. Worst case I get a trail bike and satisfy my urge that way!

Total bummer!

I did have an FZR250R exup - fast pocket rocket :p:, and a XTZ 660 Tenere (enduro style), which I traded for a FZR600R. Had to sell then when I left England to come here, but now I have a Vette :D

Had a VFR700 about 15 years ago. Had a Seca 550 five years before that. A 550 Yamaha cruiser somethingoranother before that. The VFR was great but the Seca was an absolute blast! If I could find a used Seca in great condition today, I'd buy it in a heartbeat.



If I ever buy another bike, it'll be a Buell, HD, or an Indian but frankly the Vette is just as or even more fun... and a hell of alot more comfortable! :yesnod:

I'm wanting to get a Jet Black/Gold 2002 Ninja ZX-12R and currently in the process of the battle from the two shrews.(GF and mother). They both say it's too damn dangerous and then stepdad puts his 2 cents in on how he was too stupid wrecking his like 4th bike. LoL I feel sort of like the core of a star in a type II supernova battling against the inevitable forces of gravity. But who the f*** cares.............I'm 21 god d*^% f((^&^ yrs old. Whaaaa I want my ninja.:) Would have the gf on my side but I freaked her out with the vette during a 90 mph drive down Mt. Lemmon in a 25 mph zone:p:
