So whatcha guys riding?

I ride an 07' Kawasaki Ninja ZX6R. I bought it new last summer and now have just over 10,000 miles on it. I ride it alot! Just now getting to where I really enjoy riding it this year. Saves a ton on gas and works well for running small errands and fishign trips where I don't need lots of gear.

I also have a project bike. A 93 Suzuki GS500
I'm making it into a streetfighter style of bike. It should be pretty interesting when I get it finished, but that probably won't be for a few months.

I'd like to get a dual sport or an adventure touring bike, would probably work better to fish from.

I ride a black 2001 DRZ 400 Dual Sport.

Went riding up some sketchy old logging roads this evening and found a massive hill climb. Figured "what the ****" and went for it. I found out that the big fat suzuki is near as nimble as the KTM dirtbike and washed out at the top of the hill........then came down hard. me and the bike make it but it took some emergency surgery to get it home. Im drinking beer to self medicate my swollen ankle.

I have been riding my 1977 Honda CB750 from Greensboro to Ashe county where I keep my rv year round on Helton Creek, about once or twice a week.

2006 Harley Davidson Dyna "Street bob"
No riding much, but it collects dust like mad!
It has had a trip to the south holston with waders and boots in a back pack and a rod tied across the bars.

Harley

I ride an '04 Harley Fatboy. I am looking at building a streetfighter as well. I am really fond of Buell's new bikes also.

Man I love Buell's 1125CR that thing is sweet. A Buell, with Danny Eslik riding, won the AMA supersport this year. They are really on to something with their new bikes.

I bought a 2008 Kawasaki Versys back in May and I'm in the process of rigging it up for camping and fishing. I've seen a lot of good ideas on the ADVRider website. Check it out if you want to get info about people on motorcycles going to crazy places.
