If any of you new track whores are still riding street, I'll be riding to SEO 9/10 or 11. Maybe both days.

I like the LCP, but I already have a couple pocket pistols and a good supply of .380 ammo.

FNP-9. $400 or maybe a handgun trade. Very good condition, stainless, 3 high caps, 2 interchangeable backstraps, manual, case, etc... Smooth trigger pull, accurate, and never any malfunctions. https://skydrive.live.com/?sc=photos&cid=a72fd56056e6ddd9#!/?cid=A72FD56056E6DDD9&id=A72FD56056E6DDD9%21201&sc=photos If you know FN, you know they make top quality firearms. If you don't that's because they primarily market to law enforcement and military. They supply something like 70% of small arms to the US military. FN is a Belgian company but they have a large production facility in the USA. The FNP-9 is made in USA. review: http://www.hipowersandhandguns.com/taking_a_look_at_the_fnp9_pistol.htm

Any off road rides?

bumping helmets?

Ha! I was actually thinking about doing that. A couple years ago I took a .357 to an old laptop at the AA Shooting Range by Nelson's.

I must have 7 or 8 of them laying around. 3 of them are still in the rotation. What do you do with your old ones?

Where are you located?

Right now, Stoner is clearly the best rider and the Honda is clearly the best bike. On equal equipment, I'd still give the edge to Stoner over Rossi, but not by much. You could prolly say the same thing about #1 and #11.

I'll be taking 83S in the morning and stopping for gas in McConnelsville some time around 10:45-11.

I'd like to have this. I'll be coming back from SEO tomorrow afternoon. Maybe we can work out a meeting spot.

You should be sick tomorrow.

I'm 90% sure that I can get out of work tomorrow and ride to SEO. I'll be taking 83S, and coming back north on 800. There will be lots of twisties in between. I'll be leaving the Cleveland area early and will be back before 5.

If I am reading this right, it sounds like you are 'crossed up.' If you draw a line through the center of the bike, your head, shoulders, & hips should all be leaning inside of that line while cornering. It sounds like you are leaning outside of that line, which is a mistake that many poeple make. It should look something like this:

Where around here can you fire this beast? btw, the only .50BMG I've fired was this

555 is very twisty, but has poor sight lines, lots of blind hills, and the pavement is sketchy at best. Kind of like 536, it's worth riding once just to say you did, but there are more entertaining roads in the area. Also like 536, 555 has a high frequency of bikes going down. When I am down that way, I make a point to ride 550 and 377 (which both cross 555) and skip 555 entirely. Of course this is just my opinion. YMMV.

I dragged pegs about 20 times on a short ride on Monday. Only difference, is I was taking curves about 35 mph. Oh and the pegs were actually floorboards, and I was on a HD Fatboy with no effing ground clearance. The obvious solution is not to ride obsolete equipment ever again

Update: 555 is the most over rated road in Ohio. Carry on.

If I could only have 1 bike, the Ninja 1000 w/hard bags would probably be it. With the MTS 1200 you pay a lot, but you get a lot.

If you get a Multistrada, I suspect the Street Glide will do a lot of sitting in the garage. Justsayin.

Ah yes
