Posted: 3/31/2008 2:06:36 AM | | Thanks, Debbie, that does help, because my experience consists of driving a mini-bike into a tree at the age of 10, lol. Luckily, it was just a slight bruise to the ego, but I've always been a rider since! | |

I happen to know someone who took both! Said hands down the AD Forrow was far better. Don't remember what the pro's and con's were, but he talked a friend of mine "Chris" (which you happen to know Sherry) into taking the AD Farrow one over the State's. | |

see ya in the wind | |

Posted: 4/6/2008 12:49:14 PM | From another forum a poster in Ohio who said...
well waiting a year is because it is the law. I have to ride alone for a year before I can have a passanger.
Is this true in Ohio? Is there a recent law that requires a waiting period?

Posted: 4/7/2008 6:43:40 PM | Hey gang! Down here in Sunny Florida right now, left the cold weather behind me in Ohio and traded it for some sun here in FL for the next week. I hear once I left Ohio the riding weather was great, I guess you all have me to thank for that! lol
We trailered our bikes down here, rented a camper in Orlando so had to stop there first. We stopped just south of Savannah GA at a rest are because neither me or Johan could stay awake any longer. We were there 2.5 hours.. While we were sleeping, someone stole the license plate off my bike trailer! To top it off, they out the bolts back on, put the flat washer, lock washer and nut back on and made sure it was tight befor eleaving so we wouldn't lose it (I guess) going down the road! Just amazing that they took the time to put those back on. I didn't notice it was gone untill we got into Florida. I'm just glad they didn't screw with our bikes! Hec, the plate didn't have a good number or anything, wonder why on earth they would steal my trailer tag..
I got tired of my Harley's lights flashing because of the security system, so I put my key with electronic sender in one of my saddle bags so it would turn off the security system. Good thing they didn't look in there and take it since my spare is back home in Ohio..
Its beautiful riding down here, don't miss home yet.. :)

Posted: 4/27/2008 11:18:50 AM | I just seen this thread! 
I think I have oil in my veins instead of blood.
I've been riding for over 30 years as a backrest, some "men" tell me it's a phase and I'll get over it. 
I finally got my endorsement last August, have a few miles now that I can say I RODE, that was on a borrowed bike. I now have an old 82 Yamaha Virago 750, that I have been doing all the work on myself. It sat in a dry garage for 5 years and I want IT ON THE ROAD, I've re-done the carb boots, cleaned the carb, best I can w/o tearing that apart [yikes!] put all new fuel lines on, new spark plugs, changed the oil, new battery.. now it'll turn over, but will only run for a few seconds, I'm at a loss.. and I need HELP!
I think it's the fuel/air mixture thing, but ........
Oh and btw, I shower daily
Pleased to make everyones aquaintence. Hope to see y'all on the road and ME be able to participate in some rides this year!

Posted: 5/7/2008 6:11:08 AM | A man riding his Harley was riding along a California beach when suddenly the sky clouded above his head and, in a booming voice, the Lord said, 'Because you have TRIED to be faithful to me in all ways, I will grant you one wish.'
The biker pulled over and said, 'Build a bridge to Hawaii so I can ride over anytime I want.'
The Lord said, 'Your request is materialistic, think of the enormous challenges for that kind of undertaking; the supports required to reach the bottom of the Pacific and the concrete and steel it would require! It will nearly exhaust several natural resources.
To justify your desire for worldly things, take a little more time and try to think of something that could possibly help mankind.'
The biker thought about it for a long time. Finally, he said, 'Lord, I wish that I and all men could understand women; I want to know how she feels inside, what she's thinking when she gives me the silent treatment, why she cries, what she means when she says nothing's wrong and how I can make a woman truly happy' .
The Lord replied, 'You want two lanes or four on that bridge? | |

Posted: 5/26/2008 4:21:30 AM | I think a lot of us are on b.o.n.
Ride safe! As we found yesterday accidents happen as we lost one of our fellow riders on the run in town yesterday in a freak accident.
Be careful on the roads and enjoy the wind in your hair! (if you have hair) | |

Posted: 6/1/2008 9:45:43 AM | A little 80 year old lady had always wanted to join a local bikers
club. One day she goes up and knocks on a biker's door. A big, hairy,
bearded biker with tattoos all over his arms answers. She proclaims, "I
want to join your club."
The guy was quite amused, but tells the lady she needs to meet certain
biker requirements in order to join he explains. The biker asks; "Do
you have a motorcycle?
The little old lady replies, "Yep, my bike's parked over there,"
and points to a flamed black Harley chopper in the driveway.
The biker asks, "Do you drink?"
The little old lady replies, "Yep, drink like a fish. I'll drink
everyone in your club under the table."
The biker asks, "Do you smoke?"
The little old lady replies, "Yep, smoke like a chimney. At least
2 packs of cigarettes and three joints a day and a couple more in the
evening, while I'm shooting pool."
The biker is becoming very impressed and asks, "Last question,
have you ever been picked up by the fuzz?"
The little old lady thinks for a minute and says, "Nope, but I've
been swung around by my nipples a few times." | |

Wanna Go For a Ride?
A 10-year-old girl was walking down the street when a big man on a black motorcycle pulls up beside her and says 'Hey little girl, do you want to go for a ride?'
'NO!' says the little girl as she keeps on walking.
The motorcyclist pulls up beside her again and says 'Hey kid, I will give you $10 if you hop on the back.'
'NO!' said the little girl and proceeded down the street a little quicker.
The motorcyclist pulls up to the little girl again and says 'Okay kid, I will give you $20 and a BIG bag of candy if you hop on the back of my bike for a ride.'
At this point the little girl turns to him and screams angrily 'Look Dad, YOU bought a Honda instead of a Harley so YOU ride it!'
GET YOUR MIND OUT OF THE GUTTER!!!!!!!!!
