Fuck that shit, while I have little doubt that this type of system would be beneficial to many people it would rightfully be met with much opposition to the point I would hope of defeat. Stupid hurts, stupid should hurt, big brother is not responsible for me nor should it be. Exactly

"jump right out and shout MARINE CORPS!" The only way I know it.

My progression of bikes was retarded and I would not recommend what I did to anyone. I am lucky to be alive, some can buy a liter bike for their first bike and get away with it, and I would not have been one of those people. Luckily I am old enough that my FJ1200 wasn't quite what these modern liter bikes are. My girlfriend has a 250 ninja that I ride as much as I do the 600. It’s a great bike for anyone starting out and beyond. I’m glad we have it and if we had to get ride of one of the bikes it would be a hard choice to make between the 250 and 600. Be careful what you wish for with the VRod you might not like it as much as you are anticipating. I had a Roadking Classic for three years and only put 5,600 miles on it because it didn't fit me well. It killed my back and shoulders, a backrest helped but I still couldn't travel far with it. I had a busa that I put 16,000 miles on in 15 months; the damn thing just fit me. I suspect that any cruiser would have been a problem though so this is not a Harley thing. If you get the opportunity rent the VRod for a weekend it might save you a lot of money.

anybody know who mounts tires in cleveland?
Uncle Punk replied to omgshesaboy's topic in Tech and Tips
Bring it out to Kennedys in Elyria Thursday before 5:00. If the weather is good they will feed you since they have a cookout every Thursday. It will cost you about $30 though. If you want to take this route get a hold of me so I can make sure they will do it for you otherwise you might be asked to leave it to pick it up later and I'm sure you will want to take it with you. -
He defiantly wasn't a racer or I would have pushed him out of the way.(But wouldn't have needed to because he would have been faster if he were.) It was a disappointing trip for me, I trolled the busa sites hearing of all these tales of high speed runs and complaining about Harley riders being rude, only to be meet with a bunch of busa riders behaving the same way.

Buell 1125RR: Not Road Legal, Yet Superbike Legal
Uncle Punk replied to RC51 John's topic in Daily Ride
It could be a multitude of things from track layout to the Buell bikes having been developed as far as they can go and the others are finding speed as they develop, or I could be completely wrong. -
Right now I have two options available for Sunday and I might add a third one of my own. If I get FREE tickets to Mid-Ohio that's my first choice. I have been invited on a ride not associated with this site that will be a fun one but one Jinx would not be welcome at because they like to see gear even though Jinx is faster than I am. (I may not ride with him either day) I have a route which stays in Ohio that is 400 miles long, I would like to try. If enough local people are interested from up here I could do that ride instead. All choices are weather permitting of coarse. I will get caught in the rain but won’t plan riding in it.

I'm not so sure bum rushing someone in Ohio is such a great idea. Japan doesn't have concealed carry.

Buell 1125RR: Not Road Legal, Yet Superbike Legal
Uncle Punk replied to RC51 John's topic in Daily Ride
The bike is in its proper class now and I agree the work that is done to these bikes takes away from being stock so who cares by how much as long as they are within the guidelines everyone else are in. The weight change rule however did not affect the Buell; the bike was already over the new weight so no weight was actually added to the bike. -
I was down at the gap a few years ago on my busa at a busa rally. A guy showed up with his father (Who was riding a busa.) riding a 1k with full leathers. He was an obnoxious little bastard that wouldn't let anyone around him just like some of the prick Harley riders do. He was just fast enough that going around him without him letting you would have been hard or dangerous for both of us so I went off away from them and rode on my own. Later that night I heard him complaining that yellow wolf came by him and pushed him out of the way.

Off the bike, returned to you in eight working days (Six possibly.) $125 plus shipping. Replace seals, new fluids. Let me know if you are interested. I work in Grafton and can let you use the gun case I use to ship my forks in.

Does more than one of them have a motorcycle? If so your baller man.

Plus you can get drunk with shitty and his hot nurse girlfriend.

Now you’re talking Adam, let’s see if we can get more than 21 bikes this time. You did a fine job handling that much last time we'll just keep piling more on until you can't handle it. Yea, our needling him finally worked. Don’t forget any rain; it’s a bust and your entire fault.

The dragon might be disappointing in a car because you don't have the safety concerns like you do on a bike. There are no driveways or side roads entering the dragon plus there are people there who keep the corners clean of gravel for the most part. It is a very short road compared to 555 being about 60 miles long; it also lacks the blind rises the 555 has. It is a much safer road to ride hard on I think that is its draw for people. Cars don't necessarily need to be concerned about gravel on the inside of a turn or worry about having to brake hard in a turn because someone is backing out of their driveway. This is why it makes a better motorcycle destination. For what it’s worth I haven’t been back to the dragon since I discovered 555 and there are other roads in Ohio that are comparable to it. No reason to go that far when you can ride roads closer to home and sleep in my bed at night.

I haven't tried it going to the river yet but I hear it's a different road in that direction just like 536 is different the opposite direction. I hear it has a two wheel launch going toward the river. I have not had my front off the ground coming from the river on it so I must not be going fast enough.

That's right Adam needs to quit inviting people to Coshocton if he is not planning on hosting them. Tick-tock summer is burning away; just make sure its not raining.
-
I think I needs me a scooter.
-
Coshocton is a great day of riding and it should have another group ride planned soon. Did I mention I love 255. I think I might have in just about every post that had a ride report about it. Coshocton = great day of riding 255 = great road

Unfortunately Yamaha will be producing the VMax in limited numbers again for 2010. They limited them to 2,500 for 2009 and only sold 1,800. Many were hoping that the limited production would be just for the first year but that will not be the case. So no dealing with the asking price for another year and you still need to make a $1,000 deposit to order one.

If I'm supposed to be giving you a reach around I'll need some help with your belly 'cause it's in the way.
