Hopefully never.. Im sure I will reach a point where the riding position just hurts my body too bad.. My dad will hop on mine every once in a while if he gets a chance, and he loves it but he says he just cant sit like that for too long. Hopefully I can retire my sportbiking era when im old and grey.

When getting to the track or good roads doesn't seem like a good way to waste time.

I'm 34 now. I have been riding on street since 17. I bought a Harley 3 years ago cause I thought I was done. Within the time I had the Harley, I bought and sold a 04 f4i, 99 r-6, 06 gsxr 750, and now the Halrey has been sold and I am on 03 954....So probably never to answer....

Last summer we ran into a guy on a Busa. This guy was late 60's early 70's. I can't remember what he said, but it was way up there. We had to laugh, not at his age, but he had an extra helmet on his bike, he rolled up to us and asked us if we were getting any action... lol He then said he loves giving young girls rides and scaring the hell out of em. It was funny. The guys eyebrows were so long, they were actually sticking out past the helmet. Oh man it was funny. It was really funny when he took off. I saw why girls are scared by him.. He almost hit a parked car..

realistically, Im not sure. Im 33 now and plan to ride for a long time. I did however take my friends Night rod. that is a very nice bike. Its the all flat black one. It actually gets up and goes pretty well. So, if I do get away from sportbikes, it will probably be a transition to a muscle bike. Still fast, but a little more comfortable. But thats decades aways.
