2006 HD 1200 Sportster Custom. I did not intend on owning a motorcyle ever again. However, the TBM owner gave me the bike in lieu of the back wages he could not pay me. Plenty of time to ride now because the TBM was repossessed. I love the freedom and its a great time to be riding in Florida.

Mostly because I don't know the Harley models at all. Some nice ones out there.

2007 Yamaha V-Star 1100. It's good for me because it helps me stay slow. I can't do the crotch rockets anymore. I had a 1984 Honda VFR 500 and I almost killed myself on it. Waaay too fast for my itchy throttle hand.

You should check out what the 600cc bikes can do now, it's sickening. Most are around 110-120hp and weigh 380 or less.

I do love my V-star, it's got Cobra pipe's on it, sounds pretty good, not too loud, but just enough if you want it to.
