84 gpz900, and an 89 fj1200 were the last 2 I owned. Sold the FJ when baby came along.

No wrecks, a few drops though. Still have and wear my Hein Gericke jacket.

Had a buddy that hit a cow, broke his arm and dislocated shoulder.

I had an 07 Suzuki GSXR 750 for a while. Loved riding it on twisty back roads. But it became all too clear that motorists do not see motorcycles. After a close call with a car pulling out in front of me to cross a busy highway, I sold it.

I hate this saying, it's overused and dumb. Well unless you force yourself to live in the flat land I guess it may have some merit. Track is fun, but it will never replicate adventure and the fun of travel by street and dirt. You have a lot of tools on track too.

Your risk calculator just ruled it to high for you to do anymore and that's fine.

When the Mavs had 7:30 start times, I didn't get out until about 11:30. There was no traffic and I could drive 80 mph North on Central Expy. Several nights when I was doing this, a pack of guys on them would pass me like I was sitting still. I'm talking 10-12 of them going in excess of 100 mph together. They'd be out of sight a half mile later. I can't imagine how much fun and how loud it would be if I was on one of them in that man made concrete canyon. Would sometimes see three or four in thick, daytime traffic weaving through autos and big trucks together. Seemed like they were always in a pack.

I had a cbr f4i.
Wore a icon neo Daytona hero jacket, icon gloves, and suomy helmet. Had 2 wrecks. Pulled over handful of times. Had a bunch of buddies that did stunts and saw a handful of them wrecking. We looked up to the star boyz who were a local group that were nationally known
