3cRider · 11-17-2008, 6:43 PM

Hey all, I've been a longtime Honda fan and owned my '01 929 since new. Though I haven't owned a XX, I used to ride my cousin's and loved it; great bike!

Long story short, Super Streetbike magazine is doing another owner's feature in the coming issue. This month (we work several months ahead) we'll be highlighting the XX Blackbirds and wanted to hear about your ownership experience.
If any of you are interested in getting you and your Bird into the magazine, please send me a few high-res pics in addition to filling out the template below.

Thanks for the help, if you guys have any questions please drop me a line! I look forward to talking with you guys and hopefully seeing a few of you in print.

-Justin

3cRider · 11-18-2008, 8:55 PM

You should be able to find us online, I believe amazon carries Super Streetbike. If not, drop me a PM and I'll see what I can do.

Thanks all, pics are looking great!

SilverBrd · 11-18-2008, 8:57 PM

ENTRY SENT,

Heisti, good to see I am not the only rat biker here.

Takes years to develop a good ratbike. And I am working on it.

I take it, that is snow your bike is buried in.

shure it is snow. i don´t live in afghanistan (or bolivia etc...)

but no, it´s not buried in...
you just have to park it and wait long enough.
nature will solve the problem. you don´t have to shovel snow over it

StuckinBaghdad · 11-19-2008, 8:38 AM

I sent you a short email from an Army account. I don't really have any cool pics of the bike unless you want one with my 4 year-old sitting on it or I can get you the hi res version of the one in my sig.

If you guys are interested in a car you can check this one out.

what issue?
when will it be out of the press?

i am shure you will tell us. right?

deadman · 11-19-2008, 7:08 PM

Well Hiesti, The tiny bit of black ice and rain I whinge about, fades into insignificance, compared to your problems with the snow, I just choose another road that doesn't have ice on it, My hat is off to you mate,
How long are you off the road when it is snowing like that, do you run spike tyres in the winter, or put your XX away for the duration of the snow season.
Occasonally high winds and heavy rain are the only problems we have here in sunny Australia, 30 to 40 degrees celsius in summer, -3 in winter, very rarely
Do we actually have snowfalls where I live.
Brian.
