You are a monster rider emeritus... Part of the club no matter what you ride...or don't ride. Friends here with or without a bike.

Look at all these posts. You suck at leaving the club, Scott. May as well just stay.
That's two things I suck at this week: leaving here and not saying f**k in company meetings. Work really sucks this week and I've been super irritable all month since I lost the bike. My coworker quit too which left me holding the bag for the entire department, not that I can blame him.
I went for another 40 minute test ride on the C5 yesterday and feel so much better. Not having a motorcycle is bad for my career.

Hell, I've never owned a monster. Double hell, I've never owned a Duc period! I'm still here (unfortunately for you guys
)
Don't leave Scott! We love you! We don't care what you ride, you're a part of this community and we want you to stay.
You guys should come over and have dinner with us one night, we'd love to see you again.

Betty makes a strong point. Plus how would I keep updated on when Mo and Ryan crash or on what goes wrong with Chuck's bike? Ok, I'll stay. But I might be around a little less often and I may not post quite so often in the tech threads. Who am I kidding? I'll probably suck at that too
Got the C5 home last night, nice little bike. Compared to the Duc I can't even feel the clutch lever.
Totally forgot I'd have to do all that insurance and DMV stuff when I agreed to pick it up last night. Oh well, made it home just fine and sorted the insurance this morning.

Here are a few pics of Tor and me with the bike. These are from a while back when I was just looking at the Enfield and before the Ducati got totaled but I'm pretty sure it's the same bike I ended up buying.

Gotta love baby pics with motorcycles.
There's one of my niece on the SS from last summer... it's posted around here somewhere I think.
That's a really cool moto, too! I'm diggin' that style. If it had 2 seats, I'd be tempted. Another one I think would be a total hoot is the Triumph Scrambler.

It does. By the time I got around to buying it they had gotten the accessory pillion in and installed it. I figured I may as well take it, I'd use it and it flows nicely with the rest of the bike and keeps the look.

Also, there's a Scrambler kit for it

I hear the exhaust on that sounds pretty cool.

For $2150.00 it had better sound cool.

Yeah, I find it ironic that the bike is very inexpensive but the 'kits' are pretty pricey.

Next summer? I picked up my new bike the week I got the insurance check! I was very grouchy for the month I didn't have a bike.
