The previous ride
« on: January 27, 2014, 12:20:20 PM »
Not much happening on the site at the moment so thought I might post a pic of my previous ride..........I'm sure Streak can relate to this model, but for those who may not........it's a 2006 Yamaha XVS1100 (V Star) :grin    It was a great bike, but do I miss the ride, not really, I find the ST a better handling bike, the seat might not be quite so comfortable, but the rest of the bike, well............ :thumbsup

Sold it to a local guy who rides with us occasionally so still get to see it! :hatwave


There are many paths to the top of the mountain.....but we all need to find our own way!

Back when you thought a Harley was the way to go until you saw their prices...

Then you saw the light!   :grin
For the modern man who lives in the city, riding a bike might be one of the only ways to escape the humdrum monotony. To take off and ride. To be both at one with nature and one with the bike. To feel masculine. Adam Piggott
