2008 Honda CRF 270

It's a dual sport so I can go off road or on. On road, it tops out at about 55-60 mph (and then it's screamin') so its not a highway bike - but I rather take back roads anyway. The farthest I usually go on a one-way trip is 30 miles (like to the office), otherwise my butt tingles. I mostly street ride, as I ache like crazy after trail riding. Its hard work, but I also think it improves my balance, maneuverability and confidence.

I'll take longer trips on the back of my DH's Harley Road King. In fact, I was looking for taller boots to protect my calves from the crash bars on his bike when I found this site.
