Driving a bike after a couple doses of L sounds pretty dangerous. I don't know man, if you decided to do it god be with you on your ride. An ex girlfriend of mine used to drive extremely good (in a car) while peaking but I wouldn't trust it now no matter how good of a driver she is/was. We cruised around countless times dosed up. That was a different time of my life where nothing really mattered though. We always said it was the car that brought us home safely, not her.
Nah... I'm not going near the Harley on 'cid. No way. I like to drive my car on a mild dose, but the bike is way too precious and way too dangerous. I'll just sit in my recliner and crank the headphones. Safe and sound.
You know what's funny though? I love to toke up on shrooms.. Makes the trip way more intense. But on LSD, pot seems to close a lot of doors that the LSD opens. Weird.
Was your bud's bike a V-Star 1100? Those are pretty sweet, but nothing compared to a Road King. I almost bought a V-Star, but it was a dog. Only thing was, the Harley was double the money . Worth it in the long run, though, I guess.
Shroomism won't take a cruise with me.. He's a-scared.

I'm not sure if it was a V-Star or not.. I'm pretty sure it was an early - mid 90s Yamaha, with a V-Twin. That's all I know, I'm not really into the whole bike & car scene, just know a lot of people who are. It was a quick bike though. It only topped out at 140mph but it got there extremely fast. He tweaked with it a lot though. Ended up rigging a 75 shot (nitrous) and I think he blew a rod? (if that makes since) Not too sure, but he was hitting the nitrous too much (he raced it out on the blvd quite a few times) and fucked the bike up and ended up selling it.
I really like the Harleys myself. They are very nice bikes, especially tricked out fat boys. One day when finances are willing I'll own a bike. 
I'm guessing you won't let anybody drive your bike but yourself? (So letting shroomism take it for a spin is out of the question? )

Night Liquid!
You sure it wasn't a V4? I don't know many V-Twins that'll do 140... Anyway, No, I don't generally let anyone drive the RK and Shroomism said he never learned to shift a bike, so, that's definitely out.
He said later in the spring he'd take a cruise.. I think he wants to see me do many scratch-free miles before he'll build enough trust, I guess.

It was definitely a V-Twin, that I'm sure of. I could never remember it was a Yamaha so I called it the V-Twin. But yeah I think he only topped it out at 140 once, with the help of a shot, and thats when he blew the rod. However I know for a fact that it accelerated extremely fast, watched him smoke other cars and bikes on the 1/4 mile stretch on many occasions. His old man is an old school mechanic and he taught my buddy everything he knows. They both worked on that bike, didn't put any money into it, just tweaked with what it had.
Yeah I understand where shroomism is coming from. Have you ever wiped out in the past?

Man, you don't even wanna hear that story. I almost died on a Kawasaki LTD-1000 20 years ago.
The front brake handle was bent down.. It was a friend's bike.. I had one shot to grab that brake... I missed.

Ahh fuck, that's a raw deal man. But hey 20 years was some time ago. Hope you didn't tense up, from what I hear from people that ride tensing up when you go down is bad news. No idea if there's any truth to that though. You come out of it ok at least?? Please do tell the story or at least the aftermath, you've got me interested now.

Well, it's a long and very gross story, but the short version is; I was traveling in the break-down lane, waiting for my friend (the owner of the bike) to catch up. He was driving my ex's car. I was watching the mirrors, not my path and I looked up to see a Dodge pick-up 50 feet ahead, abandoned. Well, I locked up the rear brake, missed the front fucking bent handle and got the bike turned sideways to the left.. Tried to lay it down, but didn't have the distance. Slammed into the rear of the pick-up and crushed my right leg 6" below the knee between the cylinder and the step & tow bumper. Broke my right femur between the gas tank and the tailgate. Cracked my sternum, deflated my right lung, broke my pelvis in two places and dislocated my left shoulder. I ended up losing my right foot and I have tons of spine problems.
That's the short version.
20 years later, I'm a lot more mature, I don't ride defective bikes and I have another 4500 miles under my belt, incident free.

Ouch... I'm very sorry to hear about that dude. Better a foot than your life though, that's for damn sure. What did they do about the foot you lost?

Prosthetics are pretty cool, man. You'd never know I had one unless you saw me in shorts.

Fuck yeah man, that's awesome you are still able to get around like normal. Being in a wheel chair or something would fucking suck.
Well I'm off to bed, just finishing up my last brew for the night. You should drop in the LNC threads more often dude, it's been fun talking.
