When was the last time that you rode your bike?

And the sugar fountain fairy swore so hard when she came to super-size that stale hope soybean; liiiike a homeless German woman. Who is this super-sizing spirit-crushing femme? And tell her I'll break a tree root up in her shrimp.

Being faster than you thought possible…it feels good. No, screw thatâ€"it feels like shotgunning a gallon of adrenaline and chasing it with an all-night orgy aboard a burning Viking boat.

Last week as a matter of fact!  Not as long or as far as I would have liked to but she felt good!

so...you rode to the Continental to get a slice of pizza and then rode home?....or did you ride over to the Starbucks off of Woodmont so you could hear the bike rattle between the buildings going both ways?   :P

Does it come with life & disability insurance, or is that optional? [evil]
First they came for the Socialists, and I did not speak out-- Because I was not a Socialist.
Then they came for the Trade Unionists, and I did not speak out-- Because I was not a Trade Unionist.
Then they came for the Jews, and I did not speak out-- Because I was not a Jew.
Then they came for me--and there was no one left to speak for me.

I'm guessing unavailable.  I rode an '87 CR500 in MX when I was 13 (and have raced two strokes on and off since) so not unaccustomed to the power delivery.  I probably haven't ridden anything with a modestly quick motor that handles that badly though  :o    [moto]

Well called on the H1 to see about looking at it over lunch break - no luck there as the seller's unavailable till tomorrow night.  I'll go look at it then, fingers crossed!

That would be an awesome bike. I'm sure the handling issues can be somewhat fixed. A fork brace + a steering damper would help a lot. Maybe some frame bracing?

Looks like bike exif <3's the H1:

Yes it can, drain the fluids, remove the battery, and park it in your spare room, naturally the living room would be reserved for something more worthy. It is a great conversation piece, about all it was good for back in the day and still.... - Gene

I can't put it in the spare room - a dissembled Commando is taking up the space!
