GenVibe - Community for Pontiac Vibe Enthusiasts

Well after debating making the VIbe faster or getting a faster car I decided to get a motorcycle. Here she is! Anyone here ride?

Nice bike! Here's mine!

A ninja 500, good little starter bike. Here's my bobber I built.

hey tim, good to see ya over at clsb! welcome to the open roadthis isn't the best pic of it, but here's the snot rocket.there's actually an older thread of genvibe folks posting pics of their bikes, but i'm too lazy and not awake enough to do a searchedit: ok i'm up now. found ithttp://forums.genvibe.com/zero...age=1maybe we should resurrect that thread

I picked this up on Thursday.... Nearly as big as my Vibe

I don't know, though... something about the Speed Triple that I like a tad better. I think it's mostly an auditory thing, really. If you know what I mean. The Four is still one sexy beast!I agree that we should resurrect that original thread. For one thing, my information is inaccurate in there (as detailed below).As to the original post, nice bike, the Ninja. I had a 250cc and loved it. The 500 would have been nice, though, as the 250 was a little lacking in useful power at lower revs.Here's my little guy. I was a little misinformed with it when I bought it, though. I thought it was a stock 500cc. Turns out it has an aftermarket cylinder and is actually a ~605cc. Only found that our when I tried to put some parts for the stock engine on and... they didn't fit. That would explain why it rides differently than the other P3s I've ridden. Doesn't seem like it's got a ton more power, just noisier and shakier. It's also not this pretty right now. It's been leaking oil all over itself and we had a pretty rough winter. It needs a little polishing.

Nice find! I miss my bike...my wife has promised that I can get another bike.

That Goldwing has to for sure be damn close to being bigger than your vibe.

Nice bikes!!!!The wing is about 800lbs., but with the low center of gravity it feels lighter than that and handles great.

Great bikes! love them all. At age 48 I am finally getting my endorsement this summer, and hope to pick up a bike for nice weather commuting in the next year or so - after my oldest is done with college.I had a Yamaha 400 for three months one college summer and have ridden a couple times on dirt bikes when out camping with family, but want to get all legal to ride.

Here's a recent one of mine:Same photo attahced.

Now I see Where your Vibe priorities shifted to. Harley equals deep pockets even if its a Sporty.

That's a nice bike! But you still have a few chrome pieces left to swap out!

No, it has the right amount of chrome pieces.EVERYONE put's the Vance & Hines Short Shot exhaust on that is black, so I wanted to keep the exhaust chrome just to be different.as for the valve covers I have a buddy that has black covers, and unless I pull my motor and repaint it black, I don't think they would look good with the grey everywhere else on the motor.
