  1. Redrocket I also have state farm. Here's my worst case plan pull the tape off the lights and such then tell agent I went down on a backroad. Sounds good in theory just hope my agent doesn't get on here. Not really j/k. But I will probably have room. We are planning on heading up Saturday afternoon. I would suggest getting a bar harness and some tie downs I don't think I have enough for 2 bikes.

  3. So I've been looking through my owners manual and checking the maintenance schedule. It says that for my 07 CBR 1000rr the oil and filter should be changed every 8000 miles or 12 months. That seems really high. Is it some sick scam to wear my engine down so I'm forced to buy a new bike? Can anyone on here enlighten me to how this is possible? Also another question. The manual states to use ethylene glycol antifreeze containing corrosion protection inhibitors specifically recommended for use in aluminum engines. Using coolant with silicate inhibitors may cause premature wear of water pump seals or blockage of radiator passages. So my big question is it safe / not harmful to use engine ice in my bike? The reason I ask is I'm planning on doing a track day but don't want to do it at the expense of destroying my engine.
  4. I'm stoked about the gingerman track day its my first. I really hope its as fun as I have anticipated. I'm waiting till its a lil closer to prep the bike so I can still ride on it.
  5. Does anyone know id gingerman allows dogs? My gf wants to go witch will be cool for pics and stuff. She won't go if the dog can't?
  6. Glad to here your ok good choice on wearing the helmet and jacket. Hope you heal well.
  7. Did you try Ohio motorcycle in hillard. I saw a lot od ktms in there when I grabbed some parts for my CBR. I think they also go by Honda northwest
  8. Glad to here your ok. Good choice on gear, dress for the slide not the ride. Hope you heal fast.
  9. Saw a cortech saddle bags for 129 at marysville Honda
  10. Really do you know the Wade's sounds like they would be on the same side of the road as you. They are my best friends grand parents. That's a mice area not in town but not too far away.
  11. Are these still for sale?

    Ride? 4/14/10

    I'm down to ride my bike should be outta service in marysville about 1pm. I plan on riding after that. I'm comin home about 6pm in Delaware to pick up my gf then head to qs&l. If you wanna cruise we can. Where u wanna ride.
  13. Well I know what your going through it took a lot of convincing to get my gf on my CBR after I traded my cruiser in on her birthday. (shes still angry bout that). You just gotta convince her you will take it easy and ease her into it. 3 miles longest distance why did you stop that soon. Sounds like she's not too into your riding hobby. My girl friend feels nervous about riding but now she's a champ on the bike. When we go to the Monday bike night we ride 42 miles each way. That's an average ride for us I don't know where everyone gets the idea that you can't ride 2-up on a sport bike.
  14. Sorry to say buxnut but with 19 years in radnor I think this young punk has you by seniority. LOL. Didn't think any one from Delaware was on here let alone radnor. I promised my 6 year old nephew he could ride with me in the parade if the weather is ok. Where abouts in radnor are ya. I grew up in the hillbilly house next to coonfares garage.
  15. If you wanna be in the parade gotta meet no later than 9 am in the radnor Baptist church parking lot. Need any details just ask me.
  16. That seems high I would ask them to break it down and show you how much everything costs. Find out what the 600 srvice is (what all is done). You should be able to find it in your manual. That way u know if they charged you for something you didn't need.
  17. The town I grew up in has a memorial day parades. It doesn't cost anything to participate. It's a really nice parade I plan on riding in it. If anyone wants to also ride in it or just watch it let me know I will post up details. The parade ends at the cemetary and is followed by a memorial service. Then after the service there is a hog roast at the fire station.
  18. Welcome. I had lost mine and when it came time to renew my tags I didn't have it. I told the ladies at the title agency I never had one mailed showed em some purchase paperwork and two forms of id I think they charged me 5 bucks for it.
  19. I haven't made any qs&l nights since I been on here but I guess people meet over at the old circuit city across Polaris .
  20. Wish I had video but I really didn't expect to see it or anything out of the ordinary. Then as he went by I just stared in disbelif. What woulda been great is if one of the pedestrians refused to move. Either way that would have ended would be great.
  21. I had a 2000 1400 intruder, loved it but traded it in for my CBR. They are great bikes. I was always told not to put synthetic oil in it. Don't know why think its something to do with the tranny.
