Not sure if you were directing that at Bad, or me, but I have a trailer. Before that, I had a ranger.

won't need my ramp until the end of the month to load up for racing 9/3.

We have a ramp but tie downs would be sweet.

I"ll be gone for MotoGP from 8/24-8/28

get a Canyon Dancer II bar harness

http://www.motorcycle-superstore.com/1/4/76/13223/ITEM/Canyon-Dancer-Bar-Harness-II.aspx

Then just get 4 ratchet straps....do 2 for the bar harness and 2 coming of the rear pegs. Its pretty much how I've done every bike I've ever transported via trailer or truck. If you need help let me know since I'm right down the street

Thanks bro.

I am still down with a flat rear tire so I'll be hauling R6 and my boy's ZX10R to MotoGP.

He's coming down next Tuesday, may be I'll just change the rear at the dealer on Monday but I can't transport it till he comes.

Do you have a van or a truck?

It'd be kinda cool to ride on Tuesday night, then I am having a lil barbecue night, you're welcome to hang out with us.

how often are you going to be transporting?

canyon dancer is probably more $$ than it's worth if this is a one-time deal.

I have "soft-ties" that wrap around fork tubes and a set of 10' straps you can borrow.

But yes, Walmart brand straps are fine. The only 'feature" i would look for (or add) is clipping hooks so that they can't fall off if the suspension compresses and the straps go slack for a moment.

I have a wheel-chock you can borrow too. You'd just need to mount it on a piece of plywood that's around 1' x the width of your truck bed. that will keep the front wheel straight, and prevent it from sliding out from under itself (unlikely, but possible.)

I work at Brecksville rd. & Pleasant Valley. I can bring any and all of that stuff to work any day this week and meet you at lunch, or after work.

Dude, you're 2 mins away from my house. I am on Riverview.

It'd be awesome if I can borrow for MotoGP, as it would be a one time deal.

First time transporting a bike on the pick up truck with 6 ft bed.

What's the best Bike Ratchet Tiedown kit and where can I buy it?

I see bunch available from bike shops but they're probably overinflated, can I buy something from stores like Walmart?

Thanks in advance guys!

Thanks. I'll call him.

Do you know if he'd be willing to come out to Cleveland / Brecksville?

Just as soon as I pulled in, besides a huge tear, I noticed a nail sticking out and now it's flat

Don't wanna tow either as Ravenna is a "hike" from me.

DucRX

Pauly is the only one I let touch my bikes and will kill that price

Do you have his contact info?

I am in Brecksville and local Yamaha dealer wants $80 to change timers per wheel.

I only paid $100 for slightly used tires and really don't wanna shell out $160 for service.

Does anyone have any suggestions?

I gotta garage and a compressor but I am still a bike newb!

Thanks in advance!

I'm staying at friends's house. We have Aprilia's seats on the track. 8 of us will be riding around including on the track on Thursday for the Fan Day. I am rolling out on Wed morning.

I have no idea how I missed this but I live in Broadview and am riding all the time.

Did you grow up and go to school in Brecksville?

No dude, I am actually from Russia but did go to high school in North Royalton.

PM or FB me so we can ride sometime...

Our gang will be doing it up in Indy this year.

We'll be chilling with 35 Motorsports crue, getting on the track for the fan day and doing a lot of riding and hanging out in between.

Anyone from Cleveland area going up?

I part own a computer company myself and had a brief business dealing with Doug. He seemed like an honest and stand up guy. This story breaks my heart and I was involved in the accident myself (stupid teen pulled out at the light in front of me while I was doing 40mph) and buddy of mine crashed and nearly died popping a wheelie at 80mph. I live and ride in Brecksville and this is just yet another horrific reminder that we gotta keep the RUSH under control, so hard though!

Prayers go out to Doug's family.

May check it out, thanks.

Hey guys,

I live on Riverview in Brecksville and every Wednesday I hear a lot of bikes going by my house. Is there a special weekly meet?

I love to ride so I am trying to meet other riders to ride in groups as riding solo is getting old.

Any info on bike meets and events around Cleveland would be appreciated.

Regards,

Misha

What he didn'tsay is that his loaner R6 came from the best guy in the world who also had Rubino (35Motorsports) install the full GP Suspension kit in the forks and a Penske 8987 shock on the back. It also has a full Graves exhaust and is too much for a DJ to gt back to riding on.

There is my man Chris I should post pix of your bike here at some point.

Comtemplating on riding out there, who's going?

There is a ride gathering up this Sunday morning on the west side and heading down south .

More than welcome to join in.

Sorry, can't on Sundays.

Myself, Johnnyboy and CaptainKeyes are leaving from Cleve on Thursday night. Staying in Greenfield, just outside of Indy. This will be our third year riding there.

I was there last year too. Buddy of mine lives @ Indy and rides a 999R heavily modded. Needless to say I had a blast so trying to make plans to go again. I'll PM you if I go.

Contemplating on riding there, who's going?

Thanks guys! Yeah I've been riding in Metroparks a lot, as well as entire CLE area and by now I know every single tree in Metro from Brecksville to the Rocky River.

I had a Kawi a long time ago but now ride my buddy's track R6 bike. He's gotta Duc 999R with 70K into it so he doesn't mind if I abuse this toy.

Anyone going to MotoGP this year? I went last year and had a blast with bunch of friends.

Anyway, after I crashed my zx7r few years back, it sure feels great to ride again! Looking forward to enjoying what's left of summer.

Lastly, are there any bike gatherings on Wednesdays?

Cheers!

Live in Brecksville and looking for info on bike gatherings in Cleveland area.
