[QUOTE="2stroke, post: 631410, member: 25668"] Hello. Ive been riding trail bikes and racing for 21 years now. I have had a vintage street bike, an old Kaw triple that I have been tinkering with the last 3 years or so. Its just about ready but Ive been nervous about putting it on the road. I know alot of you probably ride street as well as dirt. I have never ventured out on the road, other than a few short test rides of friend bikes and such. My wife keeps telling me Im gonna die. She knew a few people that died on bikes growing up. We were discussing the issue, and a couple of weekends ago, no less than 3 bikers died on Maryland roads alone. My own brother cautions me, after racing MX for 15 years, he rode on the road for a year or so until he had too many close calls. Problem is, I dont get to ride my dirt bikes nearly enough, and I think if I had the old triple on the road, it would be cool to run around the neighborhood. Im not talking long tours or anything, just messing around a bit. Have any of you had bad experiences riding on the road? Can it be done safely? I know its almost always the other guy and theres not alot you can do about that but I just cant make up my mind. Any comments would be appreciated. Thanks, Neil [/QUOTE]
