How heavy is that Goldwing? I ride offroad mainly with my suzuki DRZ400e.
Would love to pick up a set of motard wheels for it and enjoy the best off both worlds.
I find a dirtbike so much fun, no cops off road either. So you can ride as fast as you are capable of.

Unfortunately not anymore.  I do own a quad to ride in the desert and dunes but alas that is not a motorcycle.

I rode an 85 Shadow 750 til last summer.  Had I known how fast I would get a transplant and heal up, I wouldn't have sold it.  But as all my buds say....they build em every day.  Just gotta buff up the savings account a little!

And Darth.....it sure does count!  Specially if you're wearing leathers as you go down the street!   :clap;

Ha Ha!!!... Wenchie, I don't have the leathers, but it's a good idea!!!... Mind you, when one of our neighbours sees both Mum and I out together in our powered wheelchairs, he yells "Oh Gawd, here come the Hell's Angels!"....  :rofl;

I'm sort of a biker, in that I am licensed to ride one. I used to own a Buell Blast, but admitted to my husband that I really do not like motorbiking and suggested that we get rid of it. We gave the bike to our personal trainer in exchange for tae kwon do, tai chi and general strength training.

My husband owns the controversial V-Rod which we rode in the Harley 100th parade. He also has a vintage British bike that he needs to put back together. He loves his V-Rod, but rarely gets the opportunity to ride. It is six years old and has less than 2000 miles on it. Oh, and I still have the Honda Spree scooter that my parents bought me when I was a teenager. Still works!

I don't ride a true "motorcycle", but I do ride a motor scooter. However, it has a "motor" and it's a "cycle", so, I guess it sort of counts. I'm also riding my bicycle again, so yeah, I guess I'd be considered a biker.
