 My true love in life, well it has to be motorbikes. I've always been a biker first and foremost(still love all the cars I've ever had though)

Currently rocking around on my 2013 R1...anyone else got a bike?

 Yep, I've got a bike too. Started riding bikes at 18 before I had my drivers license for the car. A Honda CX500C, lovely bike.
I still have it, but it needs a fair bit of work. My current bike is something very different than yours, an Intruder M1800R in silver....

 Something a little different. It's as much a Harley as trigger's broom was the original broom!

 Hi, I am a biker and have been for over 45 years, in this time I have owned every type of bike imaginable from commuters to sports bikes, I currently put comfort at the top of my priority and run a Harley Davidson Road King, it is a great bike for what it was intended, i.e. cruising.
