    I need more pics! I hate not having a bike. I built/sold a gixxer stunt bike but i'm now looking at building a motard out of a wr450f steel frame. Any one riding one?

    sorry didn't see your reply until now. And all my actual friends know whats up with god's chariot, but everyone on campus sees it just another old bmw. And my dad thought the same thing, so with no power steering I made him drive "spirited" on a local back road, and when it was all said and done he climbed out the car with the biggest smile on his face.

    Sorry again got off topic there, but yeah my commute is mostly freeway, drive about a mile and a half to get to the freeway from my house and half a mile from the freeway to work/school and about 15 miles or so on the freeway.

    I'm just expressing my frustration of only car guys knowing what e30s are all about haha.

    Haha nooo I'm just saying no one knows what a e30 is besides a car. And even though no one knows what a super moto is they see a bike think it's somewhat cool. Now I'm not trying to turn heads with my car or anything but when people constantly ask me why I don't get a newer bmw it's just like
    O.o you. don't. even. know.

    I get that, but I meant the part I quoted. Are you alluding to the fact that because they don't understand how awesome e30's are they will also not understand how awesome supermotoards are?

    Pulled out my bike today for the first time in about three months. Just had to charge the battery and it started right up! Getting really sick of winter keeping me from riding...

Just remember when it comes to helmets you get what you paid for. Your safety is not something you want to go cheap on. My helmet set me back about $280 brand new.
    You replaced the helmet, correct?

    Helmets are good for one impact (at the original rating), after the first impact they are compromised.

    Gonna be selling my drz shortly...i iz sad. But Tempe, AZ is one of the worst places to ride a motorcycle. Almost an accident every couple of days. I'll be picking up one later though when I'm in a "safer" area. Gonna be using the proceeds towards an e36 m3.
