Anybody else ride motorcycles? Post them here.

My mother threatened to put a sledge hammer into any motor bike I brought home, and she was quite capable of it, could use a 7lb sledge one handed.

Bout time you moved out.

Husqvarna 701 Enduro, I like an all year round bike!

One of my angling customers has just bought c1750cc Harley Davidson. He is 75!

I know Jimmy, I wish I could have kept both of them.
Also had a set of supermoto wheels and sticky tires for the XR, now that was fun .

Not one we see much of in the UK, but seem like they are a true dualsport machine, just ask sly

Love the attachment in front of the handlebars!

Think the traffic cops in the UK would deploy an armed response unit, if not a heli with a door-mounted GPMG, within 10 mins of seeing you in the saddle!

I cracked up when I saw that video. My bike does 28.5mph flat out and is a 4 stoke. If I rev it up and let go it falls over. I can skid logs with it, but it's not built for speed. ~Muir

Probably so! Standard fare here. I have a rancher that lets me roam his vast properties because during caving season I make it a point to ride out and shoot coyotes from around his herds. If you're going to ride in 25 miles from the nearest anything, this is the bike you want.~Muir

I’ve owned this for the last 16 years.

Oh hell. I had one too, same colours. The best Blade by far. And nearly comfortable! One I wish I didn't sell.

I know it's completely different, but I like to think this Welbike was a spiritual forerunner to Muir's armed two-wheeler.

Only used small bikes/scooters. Firstly, for commuting in London, I had a BMW C1 125cc. Heated grips, roof, windscreen wipers. Great fun to drive.

After that, I bought a Piaggio MP3 250cc. No roof but an extra wheel at the front. Stable as a stable thing. Massive amount of traction and used to weekend commute to Dorset and Gloucestershire on it along motorways no problem.

How does someone posing with a dead buffalo ride them in good conscience . Talk about yin and yang. Haha.

My conscience is clear.

For the buffalo as well as the scooters.

My latest toy a husqvarna te 300 2 stroke that I am converting to a supermoto

It's a topic I've not dabbled with on here, but they have played a massive part of my family and my own life.
A few of us have raced IoM TT, Bol D'Or 24hr, Daytona.
I used to work in a shop that built "Specials" (there's something in the name if you knew Glasgow bike scene).
I've always had a passion for 2/ but always had a Dyno in the shop when fast wasn't fast enough. We built a few turbo bikes...

Currently sitting on an old GasGas ec200, Norton inter, minarelli 50, Honda 125 which was ran in the Manx in the '80s, a Yamaha RD250 1979.

It's been a few years since I've had my old KLE500 on the road. I'm hoping to get a big Yamaha Super Tenere next year for some commuting and long trips.

A Husky 701 like @hammo above is very tempting though. I don't think the local foresters would approve...

Id love a 90's super tenere in black with the purple and turquoise flashes down the side. Very Miami Vice.

That would be pretty cool - 90's colour schemes were wild!
