Hi, I just joined the forum yesterday, been getting to grips with where things are and so on. Didn't see an Intro place, thought would say hi here.

I am not a biker, but from a young age, been fascinated with motorbikes and that community. One of my late uncles always had bikes, and so was used to being around them. He used to fix old ones up himself.

I have fond memories of my late uncle, and a few years ago I got a motorbike tattoo in his memory.

I won't bore you all any more, but what I have looked through so far, have loved all the information. In a way, it's still a connection to him, seeing you all talk about bikes. If that make sense?

It does, but what would make more sense is to try riding motorcycles yourself, maybe?

You never know until you try.

A good suggestion, but I can't ride a push bike due to balance issues, I think it would be safer to stay away from motorcyles.

Nah go on, get yourself some wheels.
Its bags of fun.

What about a moped? ... if you worry about balance.
They seem easier to handle.

Quite fancy a Vespa meself sometimes.

Motorcycles are easier to balance than pushbikes IMO.

Remember kids, bikes aren't like lego. You can't easily take a part from one bike and then fit it to another.

My mum warned me about peer pressure! lol

Joking aside, I think it's best that I learn to drive a car first, for various reasons, I haven't been able to learn yet.

Maybe one day I will get a motorcyle, but I have one tattooed, so that will do for now.

Thinking

You're bike curious, is it a Harley that you'd want if getting a bike?

No, it would probably be a Honda. I have a Honda motorcycle tattooed in memory of my late uncle, he loved Hondas.

What no sex?
Shocked

Honda seats are so big, you could have an orgy on them.
I was particularly fond of the pillion seat on a CX500, perfect for fat arses like mine.

If you are a pretty female, take hints from Mrs Suntan.

If you aren't I have just wasted 37 seconds of my life.
