Nice bike 'grip...

I've got a sportbike now, but I'll be selling it in the spring (along with a dirtbike). I'm entirely too stupid when I ride it... and if I'm not riding stupid my wrists absolutely KILL me. I put 20K miles on it in two years, and these last two, I think I put on a total of a thousand miles a year.

I'm currently looking replacements ranging from a late model DR650, to a Yamaha FZ6, to a BMW F650 Dakar, to a Ducati Multistrada or Monster 800+.

I'm really leaning towards a Duc... I used to joke around saying they're "Italian Harley's", but the beautiful sounds they make and the looks of the Monsters have really grown on me.

I've been riding dirt since I was 8-10 years old... on the street since the day I turned 16. I'm 26 now.

I love watching those turbo-busa vids online...

I need one of those, and a car that wheelies, before I punch in my card.
