I like your motorccycle. I was looking at them yesterday and think the Boulevard is one of the nicest. I imiss not having a 5th gear on mine, I keep searching for it when I get on the freeway. Mine s a 2006 Yamaha that I got in 2005 but I already want a 2007 with a more powerful engine.

I don't think people can tell that I am a woman when I am wearing my leather jacket, gauntlets, helmet and jeans ( I am 5'9"). I never have problems and figure most men think if a woman is on a motorcycle she is tough enough to not mess with. It probably depends on where you live too.

I think I joined this once but it was a while ago. I am a late-middle aged woman with 3 kids who rides a Yamaha V-Star 650. I live in the San Francisco Bay area (Oakland) and use my bike to go to work and get around town. Not much into long rides, it's not comfortable enough for that.
