I gots me a 2004 Kawasaki Vulcan 800cc with < 5K miles for $3800.





Before that, I had a beat up Kawasaki KZ-1000P which was 50 miles from broken and cost $1500 at the time of purchase (though I sold it for a measly $400!). It was the first bike I owned, and it was too big, too tall, and too unreliable. New, I'm sure they're great - but this was a retired cop bike that had been run into the ground.





My first taste of extended riding was on my brother in law's former Honda Rebel 250cc,
which he picked up with less than 500 miles on it for $1500, and sold it for the same price two years later.

Geo, are you comfortable with riding those in the rain?
That would seem quite dangerous.

Nope, not to mention I just don't want to hassle with the extra equipment needed to keep myself dry.  I don't use my bike to communte or for any purpose other than sober recreation on sunny days.  I've rarely even been on the freeway, stickin' to 25 - 45 mph winding country roads for my trip.  I'm also fairly newb to riding, only a couple years of experience under my belt, and during those couple years I maybe go out on average only once every 10 days.

Motorcycles would be a great convenience for short trips, especially considering today's gas prices.
Still, I'd be kind of worried about riding one.

Almost nobody posted cruiser bikes.

Heh. And DON'T get a GSX-R 1000 for your first bike. That's definitely a good way to kill yourself.

I'm a big fan of the Suzuki Boulevards Beautiful bikes and they ride like a dream.
