I have a cruiser for now, but I am looking to get a dirt bike in the future. Seeing as how I started off in off road biking real young, it doesn't hurt to have a bike for every occasion!!
BikerKat2004I ride a 2004 Honda VTX 1300cc, the biggest bike I could find that fit me. I stand 5'3" tall or short to some of you towering people. I may not roar but my bad ass bike does. Yehaw. I got him from a man, by the way. : ) This is my third bike I have owned... moreI ride a 2004 Honda VTX 1300cc, the biggest bike I could find that fit me.

My wife just completed her safety course and is now a licensed motorcyclist. It seemed to us that riding one up on desperate bikes felt safer. She also has become a more conscious driver. I'm proud to share the road with her.

When I first started ridin' a "street bike", there weren't a whole lotta other ladies, out there. And We'd get the inevitable comments about "dikes on bikes"...very discouraging at the time, altho, I pretty much laff about it all, now. Back then, we just wanted to ride (cause we could, not cause we were tryin' to be like the guys). On the contrary, it wasn't about proving anything to anyone (except maybe ourselves).
And while all the stats up yonder, make some kind of sense, if ya ask a Lady why she rides, you're probably gonna hear the same thing you hear when you ask any other rider that. The FREEDOM. God, nature, an open road, and a full tank of gas...ain't NUTHIN' better'n that. PERIOD.
I've been riding for over 30 years and I have been averaging between 22,000 to 24,000 miles a year.
My current bike is a 2010 Stratoliner Deluxe and I've had it now for 27 months and in that time I currently have almost 51,000 miles.

I am able to ride year round because I live in SoCal.
I was just wondering what kind of mileage you guy have been racking up.

I live in NW Indiana & last season was my 1st. I racked up over 8,000 miles. Doesn't sound like much, but my 883 Hugger & I ran 70+ down to the Smoky's & I did the Dragon twice & LOVED it:)
This is my third bike I have owned... more
