Definitely...I'd take the girl over the bike anyday.
I actually think I would have quit on my own, just because of the way people drive here in cincy. Still...riding a sportsbike is the most fun I have ever had in my life.

I've owned a harley, 2 suzukis, 2 hondas, and a kawasaki. I miss all of them. This go round, I bought an old bmw sedan instead, because I'm recovering from moving back from alaska. But another bike or 2 is in the cards. My goal is to have an FXRP and a triumph sport bike.

Damnit, and here I was looking forward to bashing Harley riders. I can't really do that now can I?
I ride a rice burner trackside. Not a big fan of the road (most of the time). I don't think a Harley would be much good on the track.
As bikes are one of my passions I have a small collection.
1975 Harley Davidson RR350. They made 35 of them and won the 350cc gp world championship in 1975
1975 Harley Davidson RR 250 They made 25 and won the 250cc gp world championship in 73, 74 and 75..
1975 XR 750 Flat Tracker. Dominated flat tracking for years
1975 350 ers Flat tracker. Great learning tool for dirt ovals
They also made a 4 cly 500cc gp bike in 1975 I came up short a few buck on a trade for one of them (made 16) two years ago, an excellent 250cc 1975 motocrosser and a road race version of the xr750 that dominated for a few years.
They made some fine track bikes, most in connection with Aermacchi in Italy which they owned. Although I have a few Harley road bikes I ride an old Yamaha VMax on the street. Fun stuff
Hill
I've been riding for 37 years (started at 14, now 51) and have owned many bikes, imported and domestic.
My first road bike was a used Honda 750-Four that was a couple of years old when I bought it in the mid-late '70s. I sold that to a buddy of mine and picked up a Kawasaki 900 Eliminator (not my pic, identical bike though). Had a 900cc Ninja motor on it. Rated at 0-60 in a hair over 2.5 seconds.
My first Harley was a used 1992 Sportster that I bought in 1994. I had that for approximately one year. This is my second Harley, purchased new in 1995, and 'modded' in true Head-Fi fashion. I sold it in 2005.
Last one i owned was a 2003 FAT BOY sold it when my father died
then i retired from being a Harley mechanic for 16 years ,i sometimes
miss it but not as much now that i have returned back into hi-fi,hd-tv,
Apple computers and Nikon cameras those are expensive enough.
