  1. Yes, that stretch is super fun and in good shape.
  2. My bike received terrible reviews, which can only mean it's slow and sucky.
  3. Jschaf and I explored WV. We stuck to about 70% of that route. Once we were there, I remembered some other good roads. It was quite a ride. We saw a bear, got detoured by a helicopter, got detoured by roads that were destroyed by that huge flood. We rode through areas that had major devastation from the flood...rivers still had debris in them, construction crews made many piles of debris (furniture, pieces of houses, appliances, personal effects) on the roadside that were as big as houses. Pretty sad actually. I think we must have ridden through a million curves. IIRC we might have broken a couple traffic laws...nah
  4. I will be releasing version 2.0 of these maps after performing extensive research and field testing.
  5. IMO, WV roads are every bit as good as those around Deals Gap they just have a different "character." Roads in the DG area tend to be a bit tighter and more technical (at least the ones I've ridden), while WV is a little more open and flowing so you can go a little faster. Also, there are 20 times more LEOs around DG.
  6. That was the first new motorcycle I ever bought. Sold it with almost 40k on the clock. Needed only gas oil and tires. A young kid bought it and promptly totaled it.
  7. It's been a few years since I've ridden this whole route. So not sure of road conditions. I was riding this the last time I did this entire route.
  8. If you're looking for a 3 day twisty fix, this route is pretty hard to beat. Day 1 Uhrichsville, OH to Harrisonburg, VA Day 2 Harrisonburg, VA to Buckhannon, WV the mountain passes on 33 and 39 are so good you'll want to turn around and ride them again. Day 3 Buckhannon, WV to Uhrichsville, OH Enjoy

    Big balls for sure. The guy Kent, Jamie, and I saw on Blood Mountain was at least that fast...more in control too. He was on a sportster, that MUST have had suspension work. Guessing the guy was a local and skilled on a sportbike too.
  10. I was informed by my 7 year old that my motorcycle is "100% cheetah fast."
  11. If i do get one it'll be a slow putter for 2up. Probably some kind of metric bagger with a decent backseat. Im going to look at this over the weekend. https://cleveland.craigslist.org/mcy/5648549222.html
  12. There's a cruiser in your garage.

    How do you define a bad cop? I was just at a camp out of that was mostly cops. After many beers and a lot of whiskey the campfire stories were revealing. There were many stories of guns, cash, drugs, and jewelry that never quite made it to the evidence room. It was kind of a bragging session. They feel entitled to steal these things for themselves. Maybe all cops don't do it....but they are ALL aware of it and do nothing to stop it. I won't even get into to the the racist stuff.
  14. There's good nekkid and bad nekkid.
  15. That Suzuki is actually built by Kawasaki. It's a rebadged Mean Streak 1600 will a couple cosmetic changes. Good brakes, inverted cartridge forks, shaft drive, no valve adjustments...it's a possibility
  16. I was actually just looking at that...lol Price is too high, but State 8 will negotiate.
  17. I like those too, but probably more than I'm going to spend. This is probably more in my price range
  18. I've seen several 06 Street Rods right around $5K
