I like my bike, but I would give up for a nice car, no doubt.

I'm thinking about selling my lude and getting a beater or something. It will be easier on the wallet, because I still make payments on both the car and bike. But I don't think I could ever give up my bike.

If you find a reason important enough, then you can give up anything.

Bikin' is in my blood, I can't ever see myself without one, I might not ride for a week or two at a time, but I like to have one available at the spur of the moment. And no payments for me all of my vehicles are paid for.
I'd like to get a S500 Benz but I wouldn't give up my bike for it!!!
I'm guessing that I won't give it up til I get hurt, yeah that's probably what it'll take for me.

No. I did my time without, I started when I was 9, and had to give it up when I went to college.

Now I'm back on after 3 years, and I'll never look back.

We've had good weather this week but I have only ridden 1 day. There have been some HORRIBLE accidents around here (bikes and cars) and its got me spooked. So for the mean time I am going to use the cage for commuting and leave the bike for weekend rides outside the metro area.

i think it'd be hard to give it up even if i started my own family. i'd at least need a weekend bike or just do a track day once a month.

Funny that most, if not everyone, in here is under 30. Priorities change and while I love bikes and riding I know there will eventually be more important things in my life.
