Nick: Man, you gotta try to get down here and ride with us. Dice has laid out a killer route that hits almost all of the great MC roads in NKY. I can't remember if I posted this on OR--if it's a repost, mea culpa--but here's a link to one of my ride reports on LocalRiders from last fall. I doubt if Dice will be hitting many of these roads--he likes the smoother, faster ones--but it'll give you the flavor of the country you'll ride thru during the day. http://www.localriders.com/forums/showthread.php?t=17225

Don't forget the FJR option. Just as competent a two-up sport tourer with hard luggage as the C14, but you take off the bags and it becomes almost the Superman of sport tour bikes in the twisties.

Indeed! And you can show us how it's done.

You, sir, must be exceedingly jaded and hard to please, and a true curmudgeon as well. If you're married, your wife is a saint.... Reminds me of this:

Joe: Might be able to roll thru for a beer around 7ish. Gotta be at my sister's house in Greenhills at 6 to help her meet with a contractor about some remodeling she's having done. Not 'zactly sure how long it'll take. So, you gonna ride the TE?

^^^ Now that right there is funny. Thanks for my new signature line!

Max: C'mon. Up at 5, quick shower, gear up for the 2 hour roll to the meet-up, play all day, roll north by 6 and home with a cold beer in hand at 8 PM. Puff-puff-pass and beddie-bye by 9. From Canal-Winchester, we're talkin' what....maybe total of 500 miles? Peezocake for you hardasses!

Ouch! Heal up, man. I just completed the Lee Parks Total Control L1/L2 course down in Lexington, KY, this past Wed/Thur. It was VERY tiring trying to execute the teaching maneuvers in a flat parking lot at speeds of 30-40 MPH at most. What was really an eye-opener was that there were a couple get-offs, prolly at between 20 and 30 MPH. One of the riders ended up with a broken collarbone, and BOTH riders had significant road rash on the front/sides of their helmets. Even at those low speeds--relative to street speeds--they would have been seriously injured if not dead had they not been wearing gear. I've been a gear freak for years, but always assumed that I could 'control my body' and protect myself in a low-speed crash, but I'm a wiser man now.

You fellas DO have some tough initiation rites in OR.

MT: You ain't met Dice yet. He ain't 'zactly NBA material, either. You both better be aiming low!

Throttle it back? I already told ya we only go 33 MPH. If we go any slower, we'd git run'd over by all you fast guys....

Yup. You bigtime riders from C-bus are obviously W-A-Y out of our league--y'all are Major League players. S'matter of fact, all us riders from Cinti are mega-pussies. And if ya pick on us anymore, we're gonna get our vaginas in a snit. 300 miles of twisties is a no-brainer. And 33 MPH is about the top speed we pussies can ride, unless we ask our Mommies permission first. And we never--repeat, NEVER--go over the posted limits, 'cause it's against the law, eh? I promise you, this ride won't be any fun at all. Gonna be a bunch of f'n hill-billy assholes talkin' shit about how fast they ride. Yeah, right! Dice really meant to only send a PM to Big Ern, Magley and Ringo, but he hit the "Reply To All" button accidentally. If you do come south, we'll only feel inadequate next to you racer boyz in yer skin-tight leathers (altho I might get a wee bit turned on...). And to top it all off, the roads are gonna flat-out suck ballz. Nothin' but straight lines connecting the potholes in a backwoods state that has marijuana as it's main cash crop. I mean c'mon....Rabbit Hash has a DOG as their mayor, fer cripes sake. Definitely NOT WORTH THE DRIVE. Y'all should stay home and log into OR for the weekend. Nothing to see here....move along.

Welcome to Cinti. There's a ton of good roads around on both the east, west and south side (KY) of the city. The bulk of OR peeps live central and north, but there are a few local SW riders around. I would urge you to also join the LocalRiders forum, and check out the AssfaultJunkies forum as well. LR is definitely a smaller site with fewer members, but we put together a number of great routes throughout the summer. AFJ is a much larger forum and many more active members, albeit perhaps....hmmm, how shall I say this....younger and seemingly afflicted with the "drama virus". They are, however, quite active with many good riders and a fairly active track crowd. They have a regularly scheduled ride on Sat morning that leaves from the Rt8/AA hwy Speedway station a mile off I-275 in NKY. Bike night every Tuesday at the Comet in Northside is a must once the weather turns--GREAT burritos. The Sat morning 8-12 meet up at Fuel Coffee on Riverside Drive is an eclectic mix of bikes, scooters and sports cars. Always something to look at. Euro Bike night is the last Thursday of every month during the good weather months across the street from Latitudes in Milford. Lastly, there is the squid/pirate/doo-rag crowd that takes over the Quaker Steak and Lube in Milford on Tuesdays and in Colerain on Thursdays. See ya around! Ciao--Bubba http://cincinnati.metromix.com/bars-and-clubs/article/bike-nights-show-off/2050049/content

Sold! Thanks to all OR members who posted interest.

Sold! Thanks for looking.

Last bump. I've had quite a few out-of-state "buyers" from other forums that stated "I must have your bike!" .... and then never showed. Sheesh, if I'd known that, I would just gone ahead and put it on CraigsList. This will be sold in the next week to someone.

I did a quick check and you'll see a B-I-G difference between the sizes you are talking. Your current tire has a tread width of 8.2" and diameter of 27.3" giving 766 revolutions/mile. A Bridgestone Dueler Revo 2--which is what I'd recommend based on how they performed on my Izuzu 4x4 Xcab--has a tread width of 8.2" and a diameter of 31.5" giving 660 revs/mi, which is 14% change in circumference. That's huge!!! You'll definitely need to check your speedo calibration using a GPS if you go with your desired size. And another big reco for the BS Revos!!! A great all-around tire for compact trucks. http://www.tirerack.com/tires/tires.jsp?tireMake=Bridgestone&tireModel=Dueler+A%2FT+Revo+2&partnum=665TR8REVO2OWL&vehicleSearch=false&fromCompare1=yes ADD/EDIT: BTW, the OEM tire fitment listed for your vehicle is 225/75-15 (optional 265/75-15). http://www.cars.com/isuzu/i-370/2008/standard-equipment/

I would suggest hitting up the Tire Rack website (http://www.tirerack.com/tires/index.jsp) to do some research on what size of tires fit your vehicle. Lot depends on the rim width and off-set (altho I presume you are running OEM wheels) as to what fits and what doesn't. You will certainly see a change in your speedo between a 235/50 and a 265/70, but I'd be a bit skeptical as to whether the 50 series you're running now are OEM fitment. You'll get far better longevity and see an improvement in the vehicle ride quality going with the taller sidewalls, and very little loss of handling....hey, your Colorado isn't a 'Vette.

MT: Nope. It's the S-model. 21"/18" F/R.

Bump. Apologies for the two week hiatus...still for sale. Hit me up!
