I really do blame my co-workers for this new "phase" in my life. or "trend", or "in" thing... whatever you want to call it.
Everyone here that I know either owns or has owned a motorbike. Two of the guys here own some nice speedster bikes. Another owns a harley. And what has happened you ask? they are starting to rub off on me, making ME think about getting one. Everywhere I look, I notice bikes now.. its like a new obsession... seriously, wth.
So, now, I'm thinking of taking a bike class, to see if i'd like it. at the end of the class, i'd get a certificate that would bypass me having to take a driving test at the DMV. I would, however, have to take the written test. aside from that, there's other things i'd have to consider... bike insurance, bike gear/helmet, and knowing where the hell i'd keep a bike. my current pad does not have closed car ports, so i'd be too afraid to keep my bike outdoors, if i were to get one. someone could just come and steal it.
So what kind of bike would i get? i dont know, i'm torn between a sporty style bike or a cruiser style bike. japanese vs american. I wouldnt get a full blown harley, like the "biker guys" ride.
Here's one that i saw, it was featured in X-men 3, Wolverine rode it for a scene, it was pretty nice. it's the Harley Davidson VRSCA V-Rod:
Here's the one my coworker owns, its pretty nice... A Suzuki GSX-R 600:
so yeah, as you grow up, your hobbies get more and more expensive. Not to mention dangerous.
.... damn you co-workers, damn you!
