  1. Oh yes.....I would be pissed if some douche nozel knoked my bike over due to his incompetance.
  2. RC51 Likes..... 1. Duh....The sound. Sato's sound amazing 2. The looks. 3. Very stable in the turns. Tip her in and she stays on line no matter. 4. Very usable power. She will accelerate from 3,000rpm very cleanly and the midrange above 6,000 is intoxicating. 5. Fit and finish is ....well Honda which is top notch Dislikes. 1. Comfort. A torture rack even compared to other sportbikes. Saddle is a bit to soft and the bars are a bit lower than I am used to. 2. The engine is a little snatchy at lower RPMs. 3. Heat. She gets quite warm between the legs. 4. Gauges...Hate the LCD tach 5. I do miss that top end 2 stroke like rush of my ZX9 and my old GSXR but that midrange is so satisfying..... Guess this both a like and a dislike. All in all the bike is an older Superbike platform with very little thought given to day in and day out use. The bikes design is now 10 years old and does feel a bit rough around the edges when compared to the newer sterile bikes. It reminds me of an old hotrod where as the newer bikes are more like corvettes.
  3. incorrect......I had a great time!
  4. It was outside of State 8. First one I had seen as well. This one looked dirty and a tad unkept.
  5. I am off 2 of those 3 days.......
  6. I may hit Valley View on occasion but it really is a haul for me just to sit around and BS for an hour..... Besides Sheffield QSL bike night we also have the Boneyard bike night up here once a week.
  7. Sheffield starts mid month. It is near me and just west of Cleveland so I think it would still be NEO.
  8. and the judge agreed with the cop. Said we should have turned right gone down to the next intersection and make a legal u turn.......
  9. Had a light that would not change when I was living in Baltimore. We waited for about 5 minutes and then very slowly rolled through the intersection after we were sure it was clear. Cost me and my buddy $150.00 each.....
  10. Church and brunch with the family then a quick 30 mile bicycle ride before a Honey Ham dinner. After dinner we sat out with some friends on the porch and had a few Coronas while the kids played.
  11. You can ride bitch on my bike if your scared......
  12. April 17 looks fine for me as well..... One thing I learned this past weekend.... People do not like to eat before they ride so maybe plan to eat after the ride for those who want to. If we want to have a mid ride meal the Barn Restaurant is a really cool place right in the middle of Amish Country in Smithville. May be a good place to loop out to. Fast service and good food with a really nice salad bar.
  13. We could do a circle Cleveland one month then maybe a Hocking loop the next. Maybe head towards Western PA one ride as well....... What ever......count me in!
  14. Welcome to the site. Nice to meet ya yesterday.
  15. Did you explain that that just don't make them that small?
  16. Drama was minor for as many people that we had. We need to do it again but maybe break up into a few groups with a few different ride leaders. We could have the A's for the really fast guys. The B's for the quick and the C's for the guys who want to smell the roses.
  17. I think drumbtz just got caught out. He was towards the back of the back and for what ever reason I guess he wanted to be closer to the front. He was out in the right lane passing us when we all hit the left turn lane. I saw him hit his blinker and check his mirror and look back before getting in front of you. I don't think he realized at all that it was close or that he did anything wrong.
  18. It was very nice talking to you as well. I rode behind you for quite a while and your daughter was looking like the perfect passenger. Just sitting there and watching the scenery. Memories of her dad she will hold forever.
  19. Maybe I had my hearing aid turned up to high and the pace maker turned down.........
  20. So being the new guy around here and all I have to ask......whats with many of the riders today feeling the need to bang the engines off of the rev limiter when pulling through Winking Lizards Restaurant? I was wishing I was a turtle who could have crawled inside of his shell. Not trying to be Mr Goodie Goodie here but damn was I embarrassed to be part of that. Maybe I am just getting (got) old......
  21. Welcome and so glad you were able to join us!!
  22. shitty?????? here??????? today???????? Windy but quite warm and better yet we weren't in Texas
