[QUOTE="Dangerspouse, post: 790020, member: 46690"] Cool story, and a very understanding girlfriend, lol! I hear you about road bikes and their rather alarming habit of killing their owners. I actually have a very nice road monster, a 1977 Kawasaki KZ-1000 that my father gave me as a wedding present. It had been his, and he restored it to pristine condition and also tricked it out for street racing. The engine is over-bored to 1180cc, it's got progressive shocks, 4-into-1 pipes, rearset pegs, drag bars, trick carbs, etc. etc. But for various reasons I had to put it in storage some years ago. However I am now in the process of getting her back on the road, partly to help defray gas prices. I may not use it as my work commuter (100 miles a day, leaving at 3am), but for grocery runs and after-work appointments, it will probably be safe. I hope.
