Default Oh hi
I've wanted a street bike pretty much all my life. I was hit by a car at 7 and it really limited my options for a lot of things.

Anyway after saving since 2008, buying a home, going through relationships, buying multiple vehicles, I give you

You mention being injured at age 7 and your moniker is 1ArmMan - does that mean you only have one arm? Forgive my ignorance. David

I love it, but it gets a lot of attention. People keep constantly stopping me to talk about it.

Sounds like you are enjoying your new ride! It is a lot like being a celebrity... Spyders are certainly not for socially shy people, or anyone that does not like to chat at the gas pump.

I was stopped at a rest stop by an older, craggy-looking biker who wanted to know if it was as hard to turn as it looked. The group I was with thought they were going to have to rescue me, but he was just interested!!

Think about the impromptu visits as a chance to learn something new. I'm rather talkative anyway, so its a welcome change for me!
