shyama's new ride



can i get a hell yeah? what do ya think steve? its an '81 honda 750 supersport. i know, its pretty old, but its in really good condition and only has 13,000 miles on it. rides like a dream too... the honda logos are missing from the gas tank, but i'm not concerned about those. i'm a little worried about having such an old bike, but the previous owner took really good care of it, and its in great condition considering its only 2 years younger than me. i know i'll have to beef up my mechanical skills to take good care of it, but i think its worth it. this is the kind of bike i've always wanted, and its practically a collector's item at this point. so what can i say, i'm stoked!
thats our house there in the background. note the sunshine and blue skies :) ah yes, the american dream. i still haven't seen a gila monster yet... oh well, i'll probably hit one eventually on my bike... as long as i don't end up wrapped around a 20 foot saguaro i'll be happy. okay, thats it. just wanted to show off the bike. hope this finds you happy and healthy, i won't bother addressing taj cuz i'm pretty sure he hasn't checked out the blog yet. i've been enjoying all your posts though steve, keep it up. -shyam

  1. Oh Shyama, that is a bad ass bike!!! That is the American dream right there. Nicely done. Now I wouldn't be me if I didn't say "Be Careful" don't be an asshole and go out there and hurt yourself. Just assume that no other driver on the road sees you there. And don't forget to pack heat, I'm pretty sure the law out there states: "he who rides motorcycle must carry gun". You also have to work on the Dr. Dre slogan, when you pull up to an intersection and you notice someone looking at you on your bike just remember: "you can admire, but don't look too long" and then stare right at them till they look away. Ok, no more advice, just haul ass and have a blast. Take it sleazy,

  4. Oh, I just saw the anti-sleazy clause. Sorry to overuse it or abuse it, and I will try not to do it again. But if I do, I apologize in advance. I guess I have a used it a couple of times, but anyway, take it EASY.

  6. But what about packin heat. You can have my Grandma's gun. I kid you not, I was cleaning out a desk and I found a 22 calibur hand gun. It's a small gun, almost a mini-gun. It looks like a perfect gun for a midget. Midget weaponry, we could start a business arming little people...maybe I'll sleep on it. It's late, good night.
