There appears to be a number of bikers on this board. My husband and I both ride. He has a 2004 Suzuki Hayabusa. He's added a Yosimura exhaust.

... and I drive a 2004 Honda Shadow Sabre. I've added Cobra drag pipes and freeway bars so far. I'd like to do a cushy seat and windsheild next.

I didn't have pictures of our actual bikes handy, so I nabbed these off the web. The makes/colors are right.

THANKS PENNI... Very nice, JaLynn. We should all get together and do a BANDSTERS FOR CHARITY ride.

That would be really fun. I am planning on riding to Vegas to Delarla's Vegas Bash the end of August. I can't wait till spring gets here so I can ride again.

This is another one of our bikes, it's a 66 servie car. Has the side shifter and REVERSE. Even though it's been restored, it sounds like it's going to fall apart when you ride it.

Pat, it looks great! I remember the Police bikes looking like that down in Houston. And I've seen times that I wished I HAD a reverse on the RoadKing...

Last night hubby surprised me with a brand spanking new 2006 Harley Davidson Street Glide. I'm still in shock. It's all black, but I'll be having very delicate pink pinstripe details with "DeLarla" on the back of one saddle bag and maybe a peace sign on the other. I tried posting pics but had issues & will post tonight. I'm calling her my sweet cherry pie for now till she tells me what she wants her name to be. Shorty is still in my garage. My husband isn't always the sharpest tool in the shed, so I don't think he thought the process through, which leaves: GIRLS - TWO HARLEYS, BOYS - ONE HARLEY!!!

Hard to be excited when one is having a heart attack!

oh so COOL!~!! I am so jealous. I had to go on the harley site and see what it would look like. NICE BIKE!!!. Your hubby is so good to you. You deserve it girl!!!

My sweet cherry pie!

Pretty face, too!

Those are both of my bikes! That's Shorty (orange) in front.

Talk about a sweet ride!

Lisa, Did you have any idea he was going to buy this or was it a total suprise? If it was a suprise how did he know what to get u? I am so excited for you.....brings back memories to when I got my Road King.

You go, girl! You are going to LOVE the Road Glide. Gotta have that fairing! DH is a good man....and he has good taste. In bikes and women.

Beautiful, beautiful, beautiful!:eek: :D

Yup, it's going to look great on you!:Banane20: :Banane21: :Banane10:

It's a Street Glide. I think this is the first year Street Glildes came out.

Several weeks ago, we went visiting Henderson Harley, our 2nd home (on 1st name basis with half the staff.) I sat on a Street Glide and my heart melted, but I didn't dare dream of owning it. So we left. Then Monday, Chris called our salesguy on the phone and asked if the bike was still there. John said it was gone, but a much sweeter version of the same exact bike just got there an hour ago (lots more chrome, CD player.) So Chris asked him to run numbers over the phone, then John drove to our house to pick Chris up to ride my new baby home. When Chris called & said he bought it, I freaked out and couldn't let anyone ride it off the lot but ME! So I went to Harley in my dorky work clothes and made my hubby peel off his sweat shirt, leathers & helmet. As I rode off, the first song playing was GIMME FUEL GIMME FIRE GIMME THAT WHICH I DESIRE (Metallica.) It was meant to be!

I didn't ride it today because Chris needs to register it (he's not working, let HIM stand in line at the DMV for a change.) And tomorrow we're going to the custom paint shop because I know what I want. "DeLarla" on the left saddle bag and pink bones on the right. A peace sign on the front fender. Real delicate, just enough soft pink to make it say "Girl Bike."

Now how we gonna pay for it? Who cares! I went to the gym this morning because I want to lose 60 more pounds and look hot and sexy on that sweet baby!

Delarla that is so nice! I think chrome is an aphrodesiac because I just love it! Like that country song goes. To all you bike peeps, I am new to this game and am interested in buying one. I have 2 questions and don't know if this is the right thread for it or not, but here goes: #1: What is the best bike for an overweight girl with short legs and arms and #2: I like the trikes, mostly for the comfort factor (ie.short legs and arms). Are those sooo not as cool as a 2 wheeler?
