I've always loved motorcycles. bigtime. my first motorized bicycle was a scooter I bought for $200 in 10th grade that I had all manner of fun on...
but my first real bike was a brand new 1994 Kawasaki Zephyr 550:
loved it dearly until I crushed the front end into a ditch a couple months after I got it... but it wasn't really my fault.... I'd taken that road just about every day because there was a nice wide sweeping turn I liked to hit at 70mph... but that day a truck dumped a load of gravel out in the field and dragged a bunch of it smack in the middle of the turn... and I didn't know until I was halfway through the turn... anyway, now I can tell when it's gonna rain due to the broken collarbone...
anywho, you always hear about how great harleys are, but they require a lot of regular maintenance... for my money the only thing good about harleys is they're LOUD
keeps you from getting cut off on the freeway and scares animals out of the road, but honestly I'd rather have a good bike:

look how fast this thing takes off hahaha:

and this bike is $15k brand new... that is a motherfucking deal. I wonder how much I'd have to save up to put down on one... seriously...
