Author	Topic: Ride, Captain Ride!-How many bikers?
John Drury Member From: Gallatin, Tn USA	posted 22 August 2004 06:33 AM profile Bobbe Seymour stopped by yesterday on his vintage BMW K-bike. Very cool motorcycle! Just curious, how many of you steelers are motorcycle enthusiasts? I recall a few rap sessions about bikes with Pat Seivers, and I remember Jeff telling me he enjoyed riding. I have been hooked on them for many years, Got the bug in the late 50's, went through a raft of Brit bikes and H-D's, currently riding a 99 Ace 1100 and a recently purchased 04 Concours.

Gene Jones Member From: Oklahoma City, OK USA	posted 22 August 2004 04:31 PM profile As a nod to Law Enforcement types, I also reinstalled my "stock" mufflers....however, I also took a 12" drill bit and started drilling holes in the baffles. Drill a hole, ride, drill another hole, ride, etc, until I achieved the burbly sound I wanted....but I still have the "stock mufflers" on my Heritage Classic!!! www.genejones.com

Richard Argus Member From: Kalgoorlie, Western Australia,	posted 22 August 2004 07:15 PM profile Ah bikes; another favourite passion! BSA's: '56 Road Rocket, '51 plunger Golden Flash, '51 Rigid GF, '54 GF, Ariels: '27 Model A, '51 350 Red Hunter, '56 500 Red Hunter, '75 Gold Wing, DT360A, XT500, PE175, SL175, and several more. These days I ride more carefully than I did 25 years ago. It was sobering when a friend had the front tire on his Gold Wing deflate (a new tyre had just been fitted!), and he lost a leg as a result. I now own his D10 Emmons as a result.
Michael Dene Member From: Gippsland,Vic, Australia	posted 22 August 2004 07:49 PM profile Currently on a '97 Goldwing. Clocked up 60,000 k's in about 5 years. (My wife made me sell my old 1100 Shadow and buy the Wing 'cause of comfort issues as a pillion!! Had to really twist my arm. Yeah right. ) Michael
BobbeSeymour Member From: Hendersonville TN USA	posted 22 August 2004 08:21 PM profile WOW!!! I can't believe it! We should have a "Guitar/Cycle ride in"! A lot of diversified brands of cycles you guys are riding also. I love my BMW K-100-RT, but I also love every other bike ever made, (even Zundap). I own several cycles now but none are the same brand.(Sold the Buell Lightning 1200). What do I want to add to the collection? A BSA, Norton, Ducati "Desmo", and the list goes on. When it comes to bikes, I don't want a "Push-Pull", I want them to move on their own. Yes, Eric West, you have to pick out my "Knuckle Head" Harley when you get here! John Drury, lets ride! As a matter of fact, lets pick a time in the future when a bunch of us steelers can ride together! Wish Chalker were here, he was a cycle fanatic! bobbe BMW seymour

Dave Boothroyd Member From: The Malvern Hills	posted 22 August 2004 11:18 PM profile I've owned and ridden bikes since I was sixteen, and about twelve months ago I sold my car and use a little Kawasaki GPZ500 for going to work. I've only got three others now, a 1935 250cc Francis Barnett, a 250cc Puch split twin, and a Yamaha SR500 single cylinder road racer. I've raced bikes at all the major UK circuits, up to international level, and made bits -mostly exhausts- for some major players in the GPs. Most of my riding was on tiny bikes, 50s 80s and 125cc racers- far too many to list. ------------------ Cheers! Dave
CrowBear Schmitt Member From: Ariege, - PairO'knees, - France	posted 23 August 2004 12:10 AM profile Bobbee, i'm glad to see that you mentioned Zundapp some of my favorites KS 601 - KS 750 - KS 800 [This message was edited by CrowBear Schmitt on 23 August 2004 at 03:51 PM.]
John Drury Member From: Gallatin, Tn USA	posted 23 August 2004 04:13 AM profile Wow! I knew there had to be a few of you out there on bikes but this is great! Bobbe and Jim Phelps:I never knew Curly was a biker! Gene, and Damir:Nice looking bikes! Richard Argus:I always wanted a 500 Red Hunter or a Manx Norton. I like the big singles. I owned a 63 Catalina Scrambler. I would like to see your plunger frame Beezer. Crow Bear:I had a buddy in school that rode a Zundapp, I haven't seen one in ages. I also rode a bike in the seventies I rarely see anymore, an Ossa Pioneer enduro type bike. They were made in Spain. Ever see one over there? This has turned into a fun topic! Keep them coming! Capt. Seymour:Excellent idea about a Steel/Biker ride in, sign me up! John Drury NTSGA #3
