Hello my fellow cultists! Greetings from Austin, Texas!

New to the group, new to riding. I just got back from my first 1,000 miles and I am loving every second of it.

Looking forward to contributing as much as I can!

Howdy hi, new guy!

New to riding? Have you done FM 1431 yet?

Greetings and welcome. If the pinkie retrieval team shows up just keep one hand behind the door and tell them you gave at the office. Works every time.

This is my baby. She's a 2003 Suzuki Intruder 800 Volusia. I just call her Judy:

I did 1431 just the other day. I decided it was a good idea to ride to Lago Vista to get metric bolts for some highway bars I have. (turns out the bars dont fit. Grr).

Havent ridden much further than that, but my friends and I will probably do a run out to Johnson City Saturday.

Lovin every second of it!

No worries! Ride your own ride, I couldn't care less that someone frowns over my bike. I love it and that's all that matters.

I don't hate motorcycles, and I didn't frown.

I just don't like (most) cruisers (Jaeger's Speedy being the obvious exception, as it actually corners quite nicely).

This is a sad face:

This is a hrm face:

Regardless, you're still new to riding. Chances are you'll get bored with the fake Harley and trade it in for something more capable.

You sound EXACTLY like my buddy, who kept trying to get me on an SV-650 as a first bike.

Sport bikes are nice. They have a lot of power. They are fast, quick and can turn on a dime.

I wanted a cruiser.

I'm not planning on burning up the turns. I'm not going to take it on the track (though I might just do that to spite you.)

In short, I'm happy riding what I ride. Sorry it doesn't meet your expectations, but I forgot to factor Guitargeek into my purchasing decisions.

Now see, I WAS gonna post a "everybody play nice, it's motorcycle-colored after all"... Guess I should've...

You'll learn to love GG, I promise.

You should listen to your buddy, the SV650 is an excellent first bike!

Go ride one, you'll see.

You're totally right!

My friend let me ride his in a parking lot. Yeah, a boat load of torque and power! I was amazed. Instant response, instant power.

My cruiser is a big fat pig compared to that Leopard.

But I still like cruisers.

Welcome!

I have an overstuffed recliner on 3 wheels.

No track days for me, but it is comfy. It got me to Denver and back in addition to being a daily driver, and I do mean daily. It's the Goldwing or the scooter unless it's icy, or I'm picking up a load of firewood.

I started on a 750 shadow and traded to sportier pastures when I started decking out hard parts in the canyons, we have good roads in Colorado...

AZRider's cruiser has plenty of oomph, and it does quite well in the corners, though the floorboards did freak me out...

Posted: **Thu Jul 28, 2011 4:36 pm**

Hi new guy! Stop picking on my friend from Oklahoma. He's a delicate flower.

Judy looks like fun.

Posted: **Thu Jul 28, 2011 4:57 pm**

Howdy Tex. The SoCal cell welcomes you.

Don't mind that Okie Geek. He's an asshole. If you had his bike you'd be one too (you probably are, now that you found this place).

You ride and love what yopu ride and don't give a shit what others ride.

Yoy bellong here.

Be safe Bubba

I also hate cruisers, but you're right man, it's your ride! As long as you're not a douche, who gives a fuck?

There are more like it among us.

Some of us are, ah, digitally challenged due to various mishaps.
