This is my Sweet Jasmine. She tends to look blue in pics, but is actually purple with pearl purple flames. It's a factory paint job and I love it.
Now if they'd just improve the stock seats LOL.

About Yourself
|
I was fortunate to realize a lifelong dream at an "ancient" 43 LOL. At that point a friend took me riding a bit and told me about the TEAM Oregon Motorcycle Safety Classes. I signed up immediately, bought my first bike a 2000 Yamaha TW200, and began riding.
It didn't take long for me to discover that I'm much happier riding on road than off, so the TW moved out and my Sweet Jasmine moved in. We've shared miles and miles of smiles since then. My husband has gotten over the shock of his safety freak wife riding a motorcycle and sometimes rides on the back. He rode some during college etc.but wasn't riding when I met him.
Unfortunately, about the time I started riding, hubby got the word that his eye disease (Retinitis Pigmentosa) had progressed to the point where it wouldn't be safe for him to ride. A couple of years later, his peripheral vision had gotten bad enough that he was no longer able to drive a cage either.
My goal and the major reason I started my business, (See link under Hobbies) is to save enough money to buy a GoldWing and have it triked so I can take him along. We test drove one and he LOVED it. He can see straight ahead, and on the GoldWing he sat high enough to see over my helmet. On my little 750, he's all cramped up and can't see anything. Thus the goal of a GoldWing. Since that's an awful lot of weight and I'm pretty tired by the end of a day of riding, I'm thinking trike. However, if by some chance I'm able to get a Wing before our son is old enough to ride his own, I'll get a side-car so the three of us can be on one bike.
