Motorbikes .....

Post by HellsBells »

I was wondering whether there are any fellow bikers down the Lane?

I ride a Kawasaki er6f and my hubby rides a Pan European. I'd love to know what anyone else has?

We are lucky enough to live in a wonderful part of the country (North Yorkshire) and enjoy riding over the Moors and Dales, or out to the coast. I guess this is our 'hobby' - anyone else?

Not for a couple of years but used to be well into my motorcycles. :-D
My main bike was a CBR1000ss but I also had a heavily modified GSX1100et.

very pretty bikes u got there Ock! )t'

My er6 is my first 'big' bike, I only passed my test in June of this year ... I'm not too sure what to go for next. Having only a 28 inch inside leg kind of limits me a bit! I love the look of mean looking cruisers but dunno how they come up on comfort on long rides, hubby and I like to go out for proper rides, not like half the people we know who only go 5 miles up the road to the nearest biker caff for tea and chat! Hubby wants us to ride over to Berlin for some beer festival next year - can't wait!

What lovely bikes and I have told you before, I love your bikes Ock
We used to bike alot when we were younger. Went with 6 other friends on their bikes touring France etc.
We had the Honda 750 k1 the first Superbike, I believe, and then the Honda 750 KZ with the four exhausts.
Loved them....to old now :-D

I loved my bike, sadly don't have one now. I sold it when I moved house, needed the money and didn't have anywhere to keep it as I was living in a caravan.
You make me so envy}} when I see your bikes.

My grandfather-in-law used to ride a vintage Ixion in the London to Brighton vintage motor bike ride every year. I believe they are really rare.
