I take mine to the gym on occasion :cool:
The fine honeys always take a liking to the thing so it works to my advantage:D

I is kind of distracting to my workout though cause there are always people in and out of there(I park it right at the front door) so I am concerned that some hater or some monkey will atempt to sabotage my bike or some shit.:mad:

I usually work out at 2-3 in the moring so its not that bad I guess:eek: , but there are still people in and out like mad.

Definitely. I am about 2 miles from the gym, so i just come home from work, throw on gym gear, and head out. My gym gets packed, so I get a spot up front when I take the bike. Of course everyone stares at it, but that's what happens when you have nice things.

HAHAHAH, bike feels heavy after working out! Whatever... 385 lbs... AHAHAHAH. You guys kill me! I love this forum!

Maybe it is just me, but I am a little self conscious and I really don't like to draw attention to myself. I tend to leave the bike at home, :( .

But... If I do ride, on a rare occasion, I wear jeans, leather jacket, gloves, helmet, tennis shoes and then my shorts and t-shirt I work out in underneath.

You guys have to understand that I live in outdoor person central. NOBODY, gives a shit about sport bikes. I.E. girls. Most find them a nuisance. So... If I wanted to scam chicks at the gym i would be better off riding a tricked out mountain bike rather than my tricked out R1. Fuckin' hippies...

(Actually that is a hypocritical statement. I do all that outdoor shit too, i just happen to love bikes as well :thumbup )

I need to start working out....

I have membership to the gym that I dont' even use anymore...

I need a working out partner though.. I remember there was time that my buddy would work out with me and we would get really motivated...

I guess I lack motivation...not to mention that I don't park my bike at my place but over my buddies garage so that would mean that I have to drive to my buddy, get the bike and ride to the gym..

Yeah every chance I get I ride there. Most of the time I only ride there on the weekends cause during the week I go at around 5:00 am. I take the time in the morning to take my pills and fatburners.

speaking of working out...

any of you ever tried Stacker pills???

jesus.. I took them for the first time at work and I thought I could lift the whole building!

You can get them at your local GNC store...one month supply costs 40 bucks...

I lost 10lbs in 2 weeks without working out and taking those pills...

Stackers... legal form of Speed? IMO

But, yeah great parking at the gym and chick dig the bikes. I try not to work out too hard when riding because the bike feels like a Goldwing and I'm going to tip over at the light. Or if I just finished working on arms, I get the jitters and can't hold the handlebars still.

yeah those stacker pills gave me jitters at first.. and I would drink like 3-4 cups of coffee with it! LOL

They are probably the closest thing you will get to the speed legaly..


now I am trying out Stacker 3. They are pretty good
