I rode the motorcycle around until it was a little cooler, and then did a 5K trail run. The humidity just about killed me :P

on the way home I saw an attractively proportioned woman riding a current-gen ZX-6R in a sundress and boots (see attached pic for approximate look...)

But add a full face helmet and a pair of Joe Rocket gloves...

At first I was all:

but then I was like:

I too saw an "attractively proportioned woman" riding a motorcycle on the way home. She appeared to be riding a 636, but she was wearing full leathers (its 114* here right now, christ woman, take off some clothes for the sake of humanity!). My thoughts were too about the status of her relations and I thought about taking the exit she was heading towards to find out... but then I figured that would be creepy.

At least she had actual boots. At the meet last week this chick showed up with knee high elevator/platform shoes. On a sport bike.

btw, what bike do you ride?

I've got a '97 BMW F650 "Funduro" I really like the chassis and riding position and handling (My brother compares it favorably to his '86 Honda Interceptor 500) and "do it all" character. I'm currently exploring available power upgrades though... and some lighting upgrades (mini-rant to follow on Oppo...)

Oh wow, thats a pretty versatile bike actually. Is it a steel frame or aluminum? Ive got to figure out my lighting situation as well haha, nothings broken, 90's lighting is the greatest. Im assuming thats your issue too.

Steel frame, she's not a light-weight, about 430 lbs wet, but the suspension is excellent, it takes direction change input like a sport-bike, but is hands-off stable at 80; its got enough ground clearance and a low enough 1st gear to do some pretty serious slogging, and it's all-day comfortable to sit on... and yes, the 90s lighting is... um, adequate, barely.

I love the solidness of a steel frame, but the weight is killer, at least your 30lbs lighter than me. Looks like you can still get some nice leaning going on in the turns too since its all up and out of the way.

Yeah the lights definitely have kept me from breaking 35mph at night.
