Hey all, sometimes I'm pretty absent here due to other hobbies one of those being bikes, well usually only one at a time but I've been spending alot of time customising my latest iron steed!-)
My 1998 yamaha xjr1200, recently cut the back off and fitted a new seat and rear lights.
What do you lot ride?

My 20+ years old Harley... got her new ... we’ve been through a lot together :)

Sweet ride you’ve got! Looks like a lot of fun!

Side view, think I'm gonna be keeping this one for the long haul too.
You customised the Harley at all?

Haven't ridden since Oct 1996. This was several months before I set off on my own, and moved out to Hawaii. The weather was getting cool, so I bundled up and went out for perhaps the last ride of the season. Hit a newly paved stretch of highway, so decided I was going to open up my Suzuki GSXR 650. Got the needle up to about 125mph. I let off the throttle and brought her speed back down as I approached a bend in the highway. As I'm coming the bend, a state trooper was awaiting with a radar. He immediately pulls out behind as I passed him. Pulls me over and said he clocked me at 80mph......I couldn't have been more relieved.
