Organ donors is what we call them. Crazy what people do just to look cool. I used to own a bike, 650 Maxim. What a piece of junk but I had a howl on it. Loved to go anywhere and everywhere I could. On a trip of about 100 kms I'd use more oil than gas!!!! But it was a great 1st bike to have 'cause it didn't matter if I laid it down (which I did more than once). Love to get another but my hubbie doesn't like them much and I'm getting a little old to go gallivanting around the countryside.
ps. If anybody has never ridden, the first time you go on the highway is the best. Open it up to a slightly higher than comfortable speed (NOT 100 mph!) and let the feeling of flight sink in. You only get that feeling once in your lifetime. Awesome! That alone makes me miss it even more.
