Cars R OK, but what kind of motorcycle do you have

Cwlondon.

commuting everyday from NYC will surely pucker your keester!

when i rode NYC i ended up on the sidewalk several times & even got into a fight at a friggin toll booth because i didnt know what a speed pass was.

on a good note ridin the bridges was very memorable for us especially the brooklyn bridge.

you got balls of steel my friend :)

I learned to ride, and rode for seven years in NYC. I actually enjoyed it quite a bit till my bike was stolen (with the heavy duty lock on it). I lived in the city so had only to commute over the Brooklyn or Manhattan Bridge to get into town. It's changed a lot since then (80's). I wonder what riding is like there now.

Congrats on the Speed Triple - a buddy of mine has an old one and has a blast with his. Ditch the useless radar detector (since when do they have speed traps in NYC?) for a damn good alarm that hooks to your cell phone, and a GPS locator for when the alarm doesn't deter the thieves.

cwlondon, you have a triple too? Damn. Thought I was the only one with an odd number of cylinders... I have a Triumph Sprint 900... Kind of old, but kind of fun...

2004 Triumph Speed Triple SE! Black paint, frame, wheels, and a damn black competition high pipe.

A blast!

Moto Guzzi Sport 1100 - Lots of mods to the mechanicals which finally unleashed some serious grunt, accompanied by the occasional fireball between gears...
