    I stopped riding in 2016. In 2006 I high sided on the race track (Road America) and broke my neck. Had to have my C6 and C7 fused. Long story short I had issues from time to time and went back for an MRI in 2016. The Doc showed me my MRI and how my spinal cord went around my Herniated C7. She said if I crash like that again I would probably be paralyzed from the waist down. She was convincing enough to make me stop riding.
    I had a honda v4 magna with 1000 miles on it I dug out of an old mans garage for a song and it was literally brand new. Only bike I ever gave a shit about but I sold it after I started into a death wobble out of the blue at 135 or 140.

    I couldnt trust myself. Some guy on a crotch rocket would come tearing ass by and I would have to show them it wasnt a cruiser. Damn sharp bike I even had it in my wedding photos it was so perfect.

    I wish I had just kept it now in storage. I don't belong on a bike though. Too carazy.

    Normally I have my music loud enough to drown out the exhaust noise.

    I always say that noise and chrome will get you home.
