Readers' Rides

     Well back in Issue 9 you saw Derek’s jacked up dualie, this week we will be showing you his hi motorcycle which he took a little different approach with. 

     He has 2005 Yamaha R1 motorcycle.  It has over 150hp and plenty of chrome.  He bought it brand new before "bike season" and he had already spent thousands by the time he debuted it last summer.  He lowered it, stretched it and put a custom "under tail" exhaust on it.  Chrome wheels and a tinted windshield were also on his shopping list.  This bike is clearly a "looks and performance" machine.  Derek and Jonathan (last week’s Readers’ Ride) Aside from turning corners this bike turns heads, that is if you can turn yours fast enough.  Derek said he doesn’t stunt his bike rather he “keeps it on the ground.”
