i posted some pics in another thread, but i took these today out in the sun...i can't beleive i went three months without a bike since selling my last one...great googly woogly is she fast...the deal was, my wife told me if i buy another bike i had to keep the vibe for at least four more years...i wasn't planining on selling it anyway, too many mods...so did i get the better end of the deal!...

Nice! it's all the off duty details that pays for it...that, and i don't really have a lot of debt...the vibe is paid for...we have a house payment, one credit card, and my wife's G6...and now the bike...
That's awful darn purty.Stock paint?Looks too perfect to be a factory job, but if it is, enjoy it, and keep the shiny side up.

at first glance, i thought it was missing a rear fender! then i realized... hey it doesn't really have one! lol. looks pretty nice even though i'm not a motorcycle fan myself. and up here, APD officers make bank. they get their own car, cell phones, laptops, and all kinds of perks.
yeah...we do make pretty decent money...but in the last week i've been spit on, had someone pee in the back of my patrol car...and seen two dead bodies...so the bike is therapy...
Quote, originally posted by kharman » had someone pee in the back of my patrol carI heard from some local police officers, that seems to be common when you arrest a DUI and he/she's not too happy with you. Nice bike by the way. My fiance won't let me ride mine until after the wedding, I agree though, I am the most accident prone person in the world and the last thing I want to do is get mangled for the wedding.

Sounds like a plot from a bad TV cop show to me. You better check that bike thoroughly for tampering when you go to drive it after the wedding, and maybe change the beneficiary of your life insurance and be sure to let her know she'll get nothing out of your demise. I wonder if prenuptial agreements would foil her nefarious homicide scheme.
No, she can't tamper with the bike, it's in storage right now and I don't even have a key for the storage locker. However, it's such a nice day, I really wanna go riding. Oh well.But I do have to agree with her like I said. I have been injured in so many stupid ways.

Just remember all the kids like me that can't have a bike and you will appreciate it even more than you do now lol!I've wanted a Ninja since I was 5 years old....that's before I was even into cars as much as I am now. I can't buy one or my mom is going to kick me out and I don't have anywhere to go nor do I make enough money to live on my own sooo I'm gonna have to wait I want a Ducatti 999r or Monster or maybe a Buell now that I know alot more about bikes and the different kinds/styles, but the Ninja is still my dream.Congradulations! Does your wife ride on it sometimes?

Does your wife ride on it sometimes?i've been on bikes since i was 9...i can't remember a time when i went more than a few months without one (even in college)...and yes, my wife enjoys being on the back...she comes from a non-riding family, so i've been trying to convince her to ride, but she won't do it...but she does enjoy the back seat, as small as it is...
My boyfriend just had a Hayabusa (SP?) for about two weeks, and THAT thing was fast too! He didn't even pep it up when I was on the back but I know he had it cruisin' when he was alone. But Friday night he sold it to some other guy. I'm not even a sport bike fan but that is sharp looking Kharman! Nice ride!! Be safe!
uhhhh NICE, that thing looks wicked. I was looking at a honda cbr last year for college since cylces get free parking. but as i live in duluth for now....i would get to ride it like less than half the year so i needed a car :/
