Well it anit DSM but im pretty happy about it!
 

I just picked up my first bike! Its a 1981 yamaha seca 750 got it today for $480. Its is good shape for being a 20 year old bike. I just wished it wasnt raining so damn much today! Anyway if anyone is in white bear or forest lake lets ride!

Good deal on the bike I say, , its just a little rain, I rode to work and back home today, and when I bought my bike in April I drove it home in 30 degree weather :-D.

Re: Well it anit DSM but im pretty happy about it!
 

lol yea i rode it home in the rain also and test drove it when it was pouring out. I think that helped with the bonding time ha.

Re: Well it anit DSM but im pretty happy about it!
 

That would be a 30 year old bike, not 20. Sweet ride though!

i think he is used to lying to girls about their real age, and always makes them feel younger cuz they hate to be old lol.

Thanks capt buzzkill. But i think ill be fine not like im riding without gear on or trying to do wheelies/ being a show off. If it anything wrecks me on a bike its gonna be some other person whos now paying attention.

Better get some straight pipes for it. :rolleyes:

Re: Well it anit DSM but im pretty happy about it!
 

That is exactly what it is, it's always a grandma that can barely see her hand infront of her face that always pulls out infront of you. I wasn't saying you were gonna kill yourself, I was saying some dumbass that didn't see you is gonna pull out infront of you. Everyone I talk to that owns a bike has had it happen more then once so I think straight pipes are a really good idea.

Re: Well it anit DSM but im pretty happy about it!
 

Sometimes you need loud exhaust to make decent power (unless it's a Harley :lol:). Just like in a performance car, a larger exhaust is needed sometimes. I picked up 23whp/11wtq with a 1" bigger baffle and a jet change.

I agree, If they don't see me they hear me. Do laugh about the southpark episode in my head while I'm riding though

Re: Well it anit DSM but im pretty happy about it!
 

Ah agree. Sorry i just misread what you wrote! I think its gonna be awhile for pipes. My wife isnt to happy about it to begin with. plus i know nothing about right now.

Re: Well it anit DSM but im pretty happy about it!
 

Well still have this bike and right now it is all tore apart in my basment. So far got some new pads for the rear brakes and hopefully after chirstmas i will get so new gaskest and valve shims for it and swap all that out. Then lastly it a good toon up and replace some front brake lines and ill be good to go as soon as it gets warm! Maybe also replace the gauges if my wife lets me have anymore money! lol

so ended up getting my old bike together and selling it. It was getting pretty spendy to find parts for it or just may have needed a bit more work then i was ready for. i paid like $480 for and sold it for $800 i think. ha but anyway the bike bug got me again after not riding at all last year and i ended up picking up a 2006 yamaha fz-6. Awesome bike love the way it rides and so much newer then anything i rode before! Got it at simply street bikes wasnt a bad place easy to work with just so damn far from my place but was worth it in the end.

Re: Well it anit DSM but im pretty happy about it!
 

hahaha i just bought a fz6 yesterday and i love it!!!!!!!!
isnt it ridiculously comfortable to ride!

Re: Well it anit DSM but im pretty happy about it!
 

ha awesome! yea its super nice to ride. I cant stand rockets where you are humping the tank as you ride. the down side about the fz6 is i think changing the exhaust would be a giant pain to do lol

Re: Well it anit DSM but im pretty happy about it!
 

dosnt look to bad to change the exhaust, but ya its definitely not as easy a side exhaust with 2 bolts.
