I call her Mabel. It's from a John Wayne movie (The Comancheros) it was the name of the mule that he rides when he loses his horse. Seemed fitting for a 250 cruiser.

Let's see those cafe racers, be it one you've built or one you've bought, like a Triumph Thruxton.

Saw a few parts on YouTube. Seems interesting enough. Just another bike builder for the most part. Really inspiring though. Rather than seeing some $50,000+ chopper being built these guys build some beauties with lots of the stuff coming from junk yards. My next bike will be a cafe for sure.

Just paid for my new to me 2006 virago 250. Can't wait to start riding. Will pick it up as doon as the weather is nice.

I have a full face but I can definitely see it on a lot of cruisers. Although my sense of trying to be tough on a virago 250 would be lost. Maybe when I move up to a bigger bike I'll put it on, lol.

As soon as the weather is nice enough to pick it up front the dealer.

The rows upon rows he saw were not all being sold at the dealership. A lot were being shipped.

Just picked up a pair of these. They are pretty much all sold out. Maybe 2-3 left.

Nice I'm going to check these out tomorrow. Can't go wrong for a beginner bike.

This is by far my favourite thread on this site. I love the pics and love living vicariously through the writing.

I was at the motorcycle show today and fell in love with the phantom 750. It is going to be my first bike and was just wondering if anybody knows what year did they start making the phantom specifically? I'd prefer a used one over brand new and would like to know what I could expect to buy one...
