Hey, it's slightly smaller than my Volusia, and some Harley riders commented that my bike was a "nice little bike" too... Then I dusted them when they tried to show me what a "real" bike would do... Also, I'm 6'2" and twice your weight, and with me and a pillion, it was no ...

In the boonies there nothing but corn, soybeans, cattle, hog confinments and tons of bars. The only open club I can find is a AA riding club. There are tons of clubs that ride to drink and not to ride for regular fun in the boon docks. Its a price of country living like gravel on every damm road. I...

A.B.A.T.E. is a political action group acting as a motorcycle club.I was a member years ago and the focus of the group was political action that is pro-motorcycle. I'm not saying that's a bad thing, in fact it's a good thing. But don't join a group like A.B.A.T.E. if your looking for a riding or a ...

Intro from Michigan

Greetings,

My name is Spike and I'm from the mid-Michigan area. I ride a Kawasaki Vulcan 800A. I stumbled onto this forum, checked it out and it seems pretty cool. I hope to hang out for a bit.
