Reefs and Motorcycles

Man I miss riding and trackdays. I'm one of those guys that had a couple of kids and realized I wasn't invincible. Still have my 07' GSXR 750. Poor thing has only been out a couple of times in the last couple of years.

None of us are invincible but youth sometimes blinds that fact.

I had a couple of kids and realized I NEEDED to to get on the bike and in the wind from time to time. (Like early springtime to mid fall time).

07 gsxr 750 was a sweeeeeet bike. (Still is)

I keep saying I will one day get a Harey but ...
THAT PRICE TAG!!!
I need a physically big bike. The Road Glide seems big but both my Suzuki Boulevard M109R And my Kaw ZX14R are bigger than the Harley.
Bigger Bike
Bigger engine

Smaller Pricetag!

Nice system and bike!
You need some saddlebags or a tank bag and you can do coral anytime.
I have done it with a tank bag on a 2003 CBR954 sport bike so its doable.

Thanks. Never even realized tank bags were a thing. Didn't know what you meant and looked it up. Pretty sweet

I just wish my tank looked as nice. Still, I guess the uglies will pass.

Hi...

I've been noticing a lot of people that own Reef tanks also own motorcycles.
I thought I was the only one.

It's funny because we manage to find time for family, work, RIDING, maintaining and enjoying our reef tanks.

If you ride and reef, Please share your passions in this thread.
Both the bike and the reef.

I know that I am as passionate about my bike as I am about my reef.
Both are expensive to maintain and even more expensive to upgrade but we seem to manage to pull it off.

Let us know how you manage it all...
