Ditto .. have to show him the thread when he gets to your place Monie

[slydesigns]

you are blind and deef i tooted 4 times and then it took you a bit to realise who i was ...

nonononono... its not blindness its focus, when riding a honda weapon, in this case the jade blade, you become one with your steed, and your vehicle just became one in a sea of small slow moving obstacles to be avoided in the daily life and death ride journey to work.

Your windows were dirty and I had Disturbed blasting in my ears as well

[blacksheep]

...I value your input very much but at this stage I am `just looking' as I can't get my bum in the saddle to give them a whirl yet. I certainly know what floats my boat though so you will be hard pushed to change my mind unless you come up with some hard stats' on maintenance etc.

I will let you gals and guys know when I am out for a to purchase my new steed.

I can't wait to have a grown up bike

can i have odds on it being a buell perchance

[banditrider]

Another outing for the twin eh?

Dunno, the Connie may get jealous especially seeing the little red one gets ridden during the week!

For those who like their bling be it practical bling or just bling for bling sake.

Nice!

Ahhhh....now I remember a conversation from Saturday. Not sure if I can even afford to look at that stuff - got a dog & 2 horses to feed...

[Monamie]

can i have odds on it being a buell perchance

..sounds like you may have had inside information..you can go to jail for that you know
That is one of the two...kind of a dead giveaway as I am standing by one in my profile picture..and thats drool not sweat that you see.

Buell is an all time favourite but I still havent decided which child I will sell to pay for it yet...just kidding.

[Monamie]

Shall I make a suggestion....................

Exactly, without our input youll run off and buy a honda or somefing...............

you say that now........... before you have heard the suggestions.......

Go on then....hit me with your best shot

All suggestions will be considered...especially since my total riding experience of nearly one year and 7389kms on a Honda doesn't make me particularly wise on the pros and cons of motorbike buying!!
(Although Black Pearl has been the best thing to learn on from scratch)

Said very quietly: I can recommend running off and buying a Honda.

What about something green?????

Said very quietly: I can recommend running off and buying a Honda.

But having a kwaka makes up for it............

[Monamie]

What about something green?????

Do Buell's and Honda's come in green?

I am going to have to take Chanceyys advice and take them all for a ride when I can legally. I do like the Ninja 650?...but I want something I can pack up for a weekend away and take gravel in its stride without the road handling being compromised.
That leaves Dual purpose types...BMW-too tall/heavy, Tiger-too tall/heavy, V-strom-so so but not convinced, Kawakas-too tall/heavy....Buell 2008 Ulysses with heated handgrips and a lower seat height...tooooo bloody powerful but oh so lovely

[chanceyy]

well chick I highly recommend test riding .. I love my bike & every time I ride it I love it even more .. & every time I get off it I am still smiling & just look forward to the next time I can get on


besides my bike will be a long term proposition
