Who are the riders our there? Having just recently purchased a bike myself, now I'm curious who else has one. Also, what are some of the good forums for riders to join?

Here's a picture of mine, it's basically ready for storage. Can't wait until next year riding season already! The previous owner changes the seats to black, but I'll be buying red OEM seats to put on it again. The red seats really complete the look of this bike.

I used to dirtbike when I lived in the Middle East. It was fun as hell and I can see why people like riding but after getting my M1 and on the way to my M2, I couldn't stand the amount of idiots on the roads and thus never got my M.

It's a really nice bike you got there Fluky - is that the R6? Nice bike, not too heavy. I personally liked my Ninjas but gotta love the Yamas.

You should check this website out if you don't know about it already:

I ride. Current bike is 2000 Shadow Aero 1100. I used to ride sport bikes, I still wish I had my 07 Repsol. Sport bikes are fun, but the insurance isn't. Plus, after riding in two track days and using a sport bike like it's designed, riding on the street felt empty.

Enjoy riding and be safe.

Gorgeous bike. I used to have an 03 ninja zx-6r but I sold that a few years ago. I remember how fast my bike felt. I can't even imagine how fast a 1000 would feel.

I think www.gtamotorcycle.com is one of the more popular ones in ontario.

R6 message net is the best site for that bike... I used to be on there back when I had a few R6's... http://www.r6messagenet.com/

If you want a more local forum then try GTA Motorcycles http://www.gtamotorcycle.com/vbforum/
I'm usually only on there when I want to buy/sell something. Too many newbs and trolls.

Right now I have this... barely ride it though...

I love white bikes. I used to have an old Kawasaki 750 but I gave it up pretty quick. S2000 is much better for me. I found bikes boring after you get used to the speed but the main factor was I had no friends with bikes so rides got boring pretty quick. Plus I hated wearing all the gear. My favorite bike is the VFR Interceptor in white or something more comfy like a first gen Hornet 599 with a few mods.

You calling me crazy?!

Went on 1 ride so far, the bike is SO fast wow... 180 in seconds, no joke. Funny thing is, let my dad ride it, and he almost dumped the bike. I barely came close, I'm learning this thing very slowly, I'm going to be much more careful.
