New Toy - Yamaha R3 Wed, 15 March 2017 11:00 Go to previous message

This is of the two-wheeled variety, but picked up this fun little bike a little while ago and just recently started riding it when we had some brief bits of warmth here in the D.C. area. Love how light and zippy it is, and its little 320cc engine I found is more than capable on the highways as well. I also have a 600+hp car and a ~500 hp car, but have to say that even the fastest of cars doesn't give the same sort of sensations as even the smallest of motorcycles. Compared to my BMW 1200GS Adventure bike I keep at my Colorado home and my sports cars I have to say I love how simple this thing is and how you can wail on this bike and get really exciting noises while still not being a menace on the road.
