  4. I have some decently quick cars...
    I have a strictly summertime Turbo RWD manual car (widowmaker).. A more practical year-round RWD manual car (highway car).. An AWD manual winter drifter/beater car (fast on snow/ice).. And a semi-sporty slushbox AWD SUV for the GF to haul groceries..
    4 from Germany and 1 from Japan..
    + a beater American pickup and a Japanese SUV for my mom..

    I have a vintage Japanese superbike, a fun sport quad, a big motorhome, indoor and outdoor MJ gardens, some hunting/fishing sports, a well tooled shop, dogs cats and a turtle, internet hobbies, etc...
    No video games..

    I'm well occupied for the most part..

  6. Been into sport bikes for years and years (yeah I'm older). Built my first back in the late 70's (before such were widely available in the US). At one time I had four bikes or so, now I'm down to just one and it's a sport tourer (Aprilia RST1000 Futura). I had dirt bikes for awhile, but traded those for a SxS. They are a LOT of fun!

  7. I had a 87 FJ 1200 Yamaha sport touring bike that at the time was the fastest production bike ever made .
    Drag racing way big time fun, diving down a straight road was torture ..
    More of a full touring type of motor cycle is what like.
    My last bike was a Honda Gold Wing .. nothing flashy ... but not once did i get pulled over by the cops.
    My Harley's is a complete different story ,, Cops followed me all the time ..
    Out here we have one stretch that at night its 212 miles without one open gas station .
    Normally not patrolled,, but loaded with animals . some are cattle ,,, deer ,antelope , Coyotes Rabbits and ground squires and birds ..
    One night i was cruising this road at about 90 MPH and hit a big fucking bug on my knee ..
    This bug was about the same size as a small bird ,, fuck that hurt ..
    Was cruising with some friends . going through these hills like a roller coaster at night with full moon with our headlights OFF .
    There was zero traffic.
    Big owl came out of nowhere and flew right into my friends face that was riding a sportster .
    Knocked him out ... he was laying back on his bike doing about 100 MPH with knuckles dragging on the pathed road .
    He kind of swerved off the right hand side of the road into the sand dunes flipped the bike several times.
    The owl hit him right in the forehead , perfect hit right above and between his eyes ..
    He broke his collarbone ..

    I remember riding on my dads choppers in the early 60's when i was like 4 and 5 years old .
    He rode with a club ,, and i pretty much grew up on motorcycles ..
