  1. frame sliders are required. what is the integrated tail light? do you have pics? sorry, looser with the lingo.. shovel? lol

  2. hey gump! back at you on ride ;) im pretty excited about this one! she still isnt broken quite yet.... but my daughter did manage to tip it two weeks ago. i will live and promise to enjoy thoroughly!

  3. hey thank you! ill take that compliment!

  4. No unfortunately....im overwhelmed with work and kids extracurriculars :(

  5. Not yet! Been to busy at work and will be traveling quite a bit this month so it'd totally on the burner... :(

  6. are you headed up to the bike show with the hubs or on your own?

  7. black crown vic with stripes? lol. i cant miss that in this town. u r killing me! welcome to OR! :)

  8. hi chris. are you going to the auto show and the after party?

  9. i sat on the sv @ the dealer and we had a long conversation. he just affirmed my thoughts on lowering and its effect on handling. Im rather in a quandary. the 250ninja? what was i thinking. i was on crack for about 2 weeks i suppose. that being said, i may not get my sportsbike... at the end of the day, i need a bike that i can touch ground with. when i ride the superhawk, its so heavy, it leaves my calves burning when I try to support it at long lights on one leg leaning. one day last year after a good deal of cornering practice, i dropped it after i stopped. i rode too long and when i got off i was just too tired to support. im not unfit either. so we are shopping around and doing research right now. maybe a ninja 500 will satisfy. we'll see.

  10. i might just do that come next spring. thanks for the contact and we'll look forward to it.

  11. hey how long is that drive from cbus anyway? i was thinking a stop in hersey as well just to mix it up. the one place i want to go is the flight 93 landmark but i dont think its monumented for the public yet. that will likely have to wait

  12. hey mama! our bikes are in storage for the winter and my truck finally gets the garage back -- its life changing when you can park your onw vehicle in the garage again, esp when its effing freezing out. didnt really get to spend time with you @ bennys when wnci was ther but it was sure great to see your face!! xxoo

  13. hi there! just read your msg about the superhawk. it remains my greatest dillemma. but the torque-y-ness has become somewhat of an addiction for me. i love and hate this bike all the same.. hate only bc its so powerful and i can't touch ground.. luve it bc when im not on it, i want to be ;)

  14. yeah i wouldnt want to aim high.. is there a better option without sacrificing handling? suspension is gonna affect that if you lower no matter what anyone says. i kind of fixed on the idea that my feet must touch the ground. 5"2, what are u gonna do?

  15. im used to a vtwin actually. i ride hubs honda superhawk 1000. i love it. i love it on sooo many levels. but its massively heavy and when i come to long stop lights, my calf aches bc i can only use one foot to hold up the bike. not really a safe option. im still only one year riding street. i grew up riding dirtbikes so i have plenty of mx experience behind me. street is so different thou. if i were taller, i would have so many more options. i hesitate to lower a bike, such as the sv, for fear of truly affecting overall handling. riding a bigger bike has so many advantages though. you just feel smoother and safer.

  16. im only 5"2 so i'll be shopping for a ninja 250 next. its the only one stock that i dont have to lower. the hubs secretly wants me to have the SV. i love my bike. the cruiser was the first bike i was drawn too, that being said -- i f'n loooove my hubs superhawk. too much bike for me but hell, im in lust!!

  17. hi there.. how do you like your sv? i love that bike but my feet do not touch ground

  18. im overwhelmed with family and mostly work... trying to find time to ride can be challenging but i managed to get out sunday!! i loved it.. :)

  19. hey! i want to sell my cruiser and get a ninja. not a new one but i can wait for the right one -- you know the kind that hasnt been dropped??? LOL. the one where my feet touch the ground.

  20. hey there! just ready your comment about the indy car... you only live one life baby!

  21. awwww -- there's that beee u tiful bike in the back ground... too busy to ride lately and my bike needs maintenance. i want a new bike! i want a ninja. yes. ive decided because its the only one my feet actually touch the ground on. miss ya girl!

  22. pretty low key -- black slacks/top but i was wearing black angel wings. i kind of showed later around 9pm thou

  23. yes, ok then. i was there. im kimberly. did we meet? im glad to know im not going crazy!
