I had a thought about ridding, Im only 18 and have been ridding streetbikes for 3 years now and my bikes have been my soul sorce of transpertation all year round. I know that a lot of ya are from cal. and I from mo. How many of you are just fair weather ridders that park thier bikes in the garage all snugg for the winter and how many of you will tough it out into the twenties and teens and still ride for fun, most people think that guys like me are crazy or stupid but bikes have been more dependable to me, more than cars over the last few years and Ill ride into the freeze warnings
so if you park it sound off and
if you ride in all weather including temps sound off

*****HISTORY LESSON 101*****
The spirit of the streetfighter has been around for as long as people have been riding motorcycles. Although it’s only in recent years that the ‘fighter’ has been transformed into the new form of customizing. The stock sportbike is merely a starting point from which a truly unique and personally fit motorcycle is made. This will be a very generic and condensed history of the streetfighter, so periods will be skipped. If you go back to pre- war Britain, it was commonplace for the motorcycle crowd to ride their bikes to an event, once there take off the lights, and fit some competition numbers on his bike and race all day. At the end of the day, replace the lights and ride home, if he wasn’t all wadded up. The 50’s and 60’s saw the birth of the “café racer”, a stripped down motorcycle bare bones, fitted with a huge aluminum gas tank, and matching seat, open or reverse cone silencers, and rear sets, for that race ride position. The term café racer came about, because most of the guys who had these bikes would ride from one meeting place to the next, and usually that was a café. At the end of the 60’s, you saw the entering of the Japanese motorcycles, fast and reliable, CB’S, Z900, GS750-1000,CBX1000, and the XS1100, these bikes gave the speed freaks of the day all over the world, access to the power that till then was only reserved for the racers and the rich. The early Japanese power bikes were poor handling, but on the drag strips they made there mark, proof of that was in 1975 the 8 second barrier was broken by Russ Collins. The Japanese bikes still did not handle well at all to make them competitive on the race tracks, and they needed to fix the flex in the frame. In comes in specialists to tame the wild handling of the Japanese bikes, guys like Dunstall, Dresda, and Titan, offering after market parts to help the bikes handle the race courses. In the U.S.A. the racing circuit and production racing was held in a much higher regard, and it was then that the term ‘Superbike’ was first coined. The bikes were roadster replicas of production models and 2 wheel bar room brawlers that spawned all time classic muscle bikes, such as Lawsons’ green z1000, Crosbys’ Zed, Cooleys gs1000, and Spencers’ cb900. While the Japanese factories began to produce more and more powerful bikes, the laid back image of the chopped custom and that lifestyle was gaining popularity. As the film “Easy Rider” hit the screen on both sides of the Atlantic, so every biker with an urge to be different turned for their inspiration from the Harley choppers immortalized in the film, and the cult began. Although the choppers had nothing in common with the performance bikes, it was a descendant of the custom scene that was the first kind of bike to bear the monicker ‘Streetfighter’. The recent day streetfighter, though the roots are definitely from England, it has taking many twists and turns, from bear boned low budget naked bikes, to full blown custom sportbikes. The English had the hooligan bikes and Streetfighters and the look is unmistakable, no nonsense stripped down muscle machines, no frills and nothing wasted, everything has a purpose. The Germans jumped in with the most radical body pieces, crazy turned up exhaust, and mind blowing power, and really have taken the streetfighter look to a whole different level. Now that the streetfighter look is gaining popularity in the U.S.A., I believe the streetfighter look will change, good or bad, it will take a look all of it’s own. The true hooligan or streetfighter bike is a stripped down no non-sense muscle machine, a rat bike where riding and riding hard and aggressive is all you are after, looks do not come in to play. That’s a Streetfighter.
