  1. No hurry but I'm going to be in the market for some new riding pants next season. Looking for high end this time. Bought a pair of Aerostich Darian pants used(about worn out) on ADV rider and I can really tell the difference in quality over my cheap Tourmasters ive ran for years. Also Klim has caught my attention. So high end Gortex( a must) Touring pants that has abrasion resistance and knee and hip armor. 36 Tall would be my size. Maybe keep and eye out for deals and closeouts for me. Other brands welcome too.
  2. Doesn't to me because I"ll be a empty nester when the time comes. But look into the Clemson/Greenville SC/Athens, GA area.
  3. Trail breaking is the only way to make the big girl turn and still be quick.
  4. In 150k(ish) miles of two wheeled riding I've never crashed anything ...Yet. Even the time I hit a 100lb dog at 70 mph i didn't go down. Must be going something right. I'm sure one day it will happen but I'll stick to what works for now.
  5. The peg folding up sans feelers is a prewarning. After that my touring peg brackets hit. Those don't upset the bike too much. You can actually see where those hit in a couple of my killboy pics.
  6. I usually stay strait up. Let the big girl do all the work. When hard parts start to touch that's fast enough. No need to lean and go faster. I truley believe that's what's kept me in check all these years.
  7. With the ratcheting system i can actually do it on the fly. Just can't believe of all the places to do it , i did it there.
  8. You winz all the interwebz for the next 60 seconds.
  9. Bingo!! Got half way through the dragon run. Wicked it up "to the speed limit" in a "passing zone" to pass a car and heard the buckle hit the helmet. Obviously had a "that could have been real bad" moment.
  10. Nope not that, is there really any "correct line" on the dragon? Every turn is so different.
  11. There is something wrong with my riding in the first 3 pics. See if you can find it. It's in all 3 No it's not my visor being up. I always ride that way. But it is a huge nono mistake.
  12. Your photo shopping needs help
  13. My boots have 50k miles on them and not worn out yet.
  14. Not really why do you ask that. Im almost always riding on the balls of my feet. Yes my outside toes are usually pointing to the outside of the turn but no choice with sasquatch legs. Inside toes are still tucked. When my peg touches maybe the corner of my toe hits but that's because my foot is slightly wider than the peg
  15. Yea I noticed that too. Older fella. Not really all there. Super nice but I could tell by the BS he was spewing that I didn't really want to ride with him.
  16. Dick! Ill have proof later it wasn't me. (Waiting for my hi res email from kill boy) As far as anyone else. I didn't see him in the back ground of any other photos. Even looked through all the cars in the same time frame.
  17. This cracks me up. I met and talked to this guy at the motel. All he did was talk about how fast he was on his connie. And that he would like to ride with me but he would let me lead so he would not leave me. We never rode together but now I wish we had. Every pic i found of him on killboy had a line of cars, harleys or other slow vehicles lined up behind him.
  18. This is whats on my Zumo as I'm rolling. Can also take snaps as I'm rolling video and it doesn't interrupt
  19. Wasn't a pretty sight of my fat ass trying to hover with my gear on.😱
