1973 H-D XLCH Sportster. It's as black as my truck and is kick-start only.

I've been riding it for 25 years & I plan on riding it for another 25 years.

It was purchased new by one of my friends in 73 in Porterville, CA. I bought it from him in 75 and I've been riding ever since.

I haven't seen any tests yet, but I'll have to admit it's much better looking than the Hayabusa.

I have a Cannondale road bike w/Dura ace stuff and a custom Redline mountain bike w/Spinergy wheels, but the older I get the harder it is to throw a leg over anything that doesn't have a motor. Is the T700 a full suspension bike?

JA_Stang86: waukesha is about 15 mi west of milwaukee. think it's about 2 hr. from oshkosh. hooking up for a ride would be cool. ever been to the highland house? it's just south of the wis border cool ride.
otherwise we like to ride north sometimes.
girlfriend rides a shadow 600.

Some of the "rocket-bike-scientists" on the LS-1 list, claim to be adding turbos to the Haya and ZX12. apparently 9 sec bikes are not fast enough when you are young and invincible. my reality check, came in the form of a "woodywagon" many years ago. i think the splinters from the woody were instantly removed by the asphalt, seconds later. so i had that going for me.

Hey thanks for the info, and for those who ride a cannondale you need their dirtbike. Then you will have a "real" bike.
