Motorcycles - November 2006

I was thinking back to a favorite pair of sunglasses I used to wear while riding. One day, before going for a ride, I washed them. When I put them on, I was shocked by what I saw. The right lens had been shocked, and split into multiple layers, by something I didn't even feel hit them. I could have been blinded, it seems. Now, I wear my regular prescription glasses, which are also rated as safety glasses.

I know how my husband feels about his street bikes and three wheeler (Honrda 250R)... But he only loves me more then them because I won't ever make him choose me or them! Why do some women do that? I guess I could under stand if the guy was gonna kill himself (like 16 year old on a superbike) being a idiot racing on the streets or something. So, how do you feel about your bikes?!

When I see those videos of sport bike riders doing crazy things like wheelies and standing on their seats, stoppies etc I wonder about their level of sanity. I wonder if most of or all of these people are chrystal meth/ice users. Do you believe they are drug users or just naturally nut cases?

Howdy people...I recently turned 18 and wish to own a motorcycle in a few months. I have been lookiung around and have been asking my friends who have them now or used to have them and they say I should probably start with a 600 cc bike like a Suzuki GSX R 600 or a Kawasaki ZZR600... I can drive a manual car and can easily ride dirt bikes, so I am not completely unfamiliar with the gear switching, which is why I am not going any lower than 600 cc... I have NO idea where to start though... I am going to college next year and I think it is a better idea to have a bike instead of a car, especially where I am going... I do not know, however, how to go about purchasing, getting a motorcycle license, and getting the feel of the bike. Should I go to a dealer or a private seller? Should I beg one of my friends with a bike to teach me how to maneuver it? And I live in Florida, so is anyone aware of which insurance would be the best and how much I should have? ali_dreyfus@hotmail.com THANKS!!

www.kbb.com is great for other cars, but I need to know the value of a motorcycle, a Harley-Davidson. Is there a website that will tell the value if you input make, model, year, miles, condition, etc.?

Is it true that the new speed cameras, that have 2 detectors about 100m apart, take a picture of the front of your car if you speed?
if so is it true that motorcycles dont have a front registration plate- so they canot catch you?!?!

I've been looking for a bike about 600cc and have come across the Yamaha YZF-R6 and the Suzuki GSX-R 600. I like both of them, but I am wanted to know what some of the experienced riders out there think. I'm not looking for your opinions on the look of the two bikes, but rather your opimion on the rest of the bike. I would appreciate answers from any one with experience around the bikes, owners, or previous owners. Thanks in advance!

I am in love with the super sport bikes. I love the CBR-RR's like the 600 and 1000, and the RC-51, and Yamaha R1. I have driven my cousin's dirtbike so in a way I do have some experience. What do you suggest. I am a quick learner and already know how to change gears.
