I used to ride scooters and motorcycles. Still thinking about getting one of those big scooters to try to save on gas and parking charges here in the city. I like the lightweight superbikes but ever since my brother died on his Ducati Monster I think if I got a motorcycle my parents would freak out! I know if I do get a 2-wheeler I'll get as much safety equipment as possible.
My brother was on the Ducati used in the Segal movie Exit Wounds, which he worked on, but he wore a little 1/2 helmet.
If you've got a bike make sure you got all the safety equipment.

I was wondering this myself!! I have a 06 Ultra and a 07StreetBob. It will be tough deciding what to drive/ride this summer!!

Nice VMAX man.... those two go hand in hand.... I used to be a bike guy, and was thinking about buying another one this year, but while I was in the show room checkin them all out I just had a bad feeling about another year on a bike, so I decided to give it up and bought the Stang...As much as I'm gunna miss it, I do feel better about my decision to not ride anymore... Something I thought I'd never say...
