Last couple of years I've been really thinking about getting a motorcycle. I never drove a car in my life though we have couple in our family, and I never was actually interested in the cars. But idea of driving a bike ignites sparkles inside of me O_O There's certain sense of independence in it I guess, not just fancy looks. Cars are comfortable and big, bikes are little and agile, though they are vulnerable to accidents a lot more often. I've read a lot of information about bikes and safety and want to be prepaired. And actually there's a slight problem: I'm rather slim and tall and as a girl my weight isn't that big. I tried to gain extra kilos for several years but even if I succeeded a bit it didn't last for long. So I finally decided to do a little weight training. And it's actually amazing how it makes me feel. But OK, when I'll finally deal with my weight problem (hopefully next year) I plan to buy the bike. I dislike sport bikes and choppers are too heavy so I'm thinking about classic bike. Such as Triumph Bonneville.



Beside having a classic design this bike has a long history and truly can be defined as classics itself. It's not too heavy and good for a girl. But it's a bit too expensive for the first bike (~9000$). Everybody falls from their bikes and I woudn't like to have scratches on that beauty. So I was searching for a proper bike with proper weight to train and finally found one: Yamaha XV 400 Virago.



Actually, it's a chopper but it has light weight and a bit more classic design. Hell, its design rocks! Can't wait till I finally get one! :)
