Coyote - is a nickname from childhood, I was raised in Fosterhomes, and on the Farm, I was told You could only see my from a distance, except when it was time to eat.... A real coyote stays in the shadows, until there is food!!! So the name has stuck thru from when I was 10, till now at 30!!
I just bought a 02 Bird, previous owner had "Ditch the Bitch, Lets Ride" on rear tail of bike, I gonna change it to "Coyote Special, Lets Ride"...

My wife put together my 1st and last name for a vanity plate once that I sent back, now I use it sometimes for some reason. I think everyone can figure out the ending.

Meddyxx- I just noticed you're from seattle, I've been thru 3 times, and always enjoyed the trip thru and around seattle. The cascades Hwy south of the border to the road of the rising sun, is one of my favorite roads.... . South along the ocean is a amazing trip too. Its been a few years, but I wonder if my small alberta city has grown, not sure about seattle growing with more cars as well....

Most folks around here drop the first "si" and one ends up with Mi-sip'-ee.
Just as many Coon-Asses drop the "i" creating Lou-zee-an'-uh.

Wastegate for many years. Kinda lets of steam when it gets over pressured(and had an Impreza Turbo at the time, so it seemed a good idea).

I just bought a 2002 CBR and it's the first road bike I've ever ridden let alone owned. I'm a dirt bike guy (a Yamaha wr250f and a Honda CRF 450r) and just needed to have a road bike. So I'm a rookie not only to CBR's but to road bikes in general. Look forward to hearing and getting advice from any and all.

I ended up with the name Inglburt ( old Englebert Humperdink,s name always just stuck in my head for some reason) about 10 years ago for an email alias. then started using it for usernames and online games and stuff. Then I got a Kawasaki 650 Brute force quad last year and joined a forum as Inglbrute.
Well, then I found and joined this sight... it just happened...

Yachts, as is the case with some naval ships, are frequently named; “Courageous”, “Tenacious”, “Endurance” etc. Back in the day I thought that if I was ever so fortunate as to be stinkin’ rich [getting’ a little late in the day to sustain that fantasy lol!] and owned a yacht, I considered that, in contrast to the tiresome norm, I would name mine ‘Phlegmatic”. If nothing else, it would compel the curious to run for their dictionaries.

I live on the last of the Appalachian mountains in central Alabama, but they aren't really up to the title of mountains, just ridges. I have been riding a four-wheeler Yamaha all over these ridges for about twenty years, hence the name Ridge Rider. Wade

If you think it over,we are most sane than other people.

We have better reflexives than even athletes have.
Mind peace is of great importance.No traffic jams,no need to wander for parking.
Adrenaline produced 'cause of two-wheel driving keeps us younger and healthier.

Gotta be somewhat insane not to ride these bikes.

Just new on here, absolutely love the site and the humour is endless, When I started riding at 15 I wanted to ride speedway solo, But as an apprentice I could not afford the motor, 500 quid, I had everything else, but only a 500 AJS single in it, not competetive, After a few different road bikes, I bought my 650 Bonnie brand new, I then rode with a few outlaw groups for quite a few years, The way I rode, I was originally called THE DEADMAN because I was death on two wheels and a temporary citizen, I was not going to make 20 I also had a death wish, hahahahahah My mates were Jealous, cause I could outride them all,I hated the name, but it stuck, I am now called deady for short, which I dont mind, I love two wheels, and my new 2006 XX silver bird plated 2008 Is just me, Its a machine that can keep up with me and the way I ride, and yes, I have bounced down the road at over 200 klms quite a few times over the years and buried my bike into cages that didn't see me, Have the scars to prove it, hahahaha I am not insane, I just like the adrenilin rush when my brain starts working above 160 klms -100mph on bendy roads, we are only here once, so enjoy it while it lasts.
I may be old, but I aint slow, hahahahaha Ride to live, Live to ride, Keep up the good work and humour, peoples,

I had a company called Helter Skelter. My partner in crime was a guy called Robin and all our customers used to ask for Robin Helter or Mick Skelter on the phone. I dont know why but it just kinda stuck after a while with everybody calling us that. Robin now lives in France and people still call him Robin Helter....wierdos !!!
