[QUOTE="John Roberts, post: 57687, member: 126"] Re: Change Your Underwear [img]http://www.johnhroberts.com/mbike.jpg[/img] Yup, probably a good thing my old DIY project was lucky to top 25 MPH, but after you turn 21 and have done a tour in the army, you can then buy a MC if you still want... My first dirt bike was bought used cheap from a first owner who flipped it with an unintended wheelie. Several friends sacrificed body parts and more to MC accidents.

A little personal road rash increases that respect.
