  1. Everyone that is talking about 600's being better than liters clearly do not go on any long distance journeys. There is much less shifting to maintain the speeds and you get the low end power, there is no need to constantly down shift to get more power you just open the throttle.

    555 Ride 8/20

    Ive planned it out for either the 20th or 21st depending on which day we can get more people. I have mapped out the route and we have a very there are minimal turns on the way there so people can go back the same route or we can take a more scenic route on the way back. This is to keep the group numbers large as possible. I have a definate 5 people that are comming so far, all different class riders. We will ride in groups and wait for people at certain points, this is NOT the road to prove yourself or try and one up a friend. Here is the route of the day, let me know who can come in this thread. Itd be great to get a group of 10 people or more. this is a DAY trip. So be prepared to stop for water very frequently because these are not easy roads. Alot of us have ridden them quite a few times but some are newbies when it comes to this road so there will be a pace for you to fit in to dont worry.
  8. save your self some pain and buy a dirtbike and hit the dirt a few times pavement is very hard.
  9. I have a blackbird clearly dont know me and he doesnt find dollars and cents on the road nor does he flap his arms like a ringo.
  10. if you really want the bike to lift the front wheel and dont get into high speeds. Then change the front sprocket to make it lower. I went down a tooth in the front of the bird, and it wont keep the wheel down if you rev it hard in first.
  11. You have to flap your arms as you do this, see he isnt fucking cool what a noob.
  12. It is legal in most of europe. Happens way more often than you think. You can kind of tell by how the guy is going down the middle of the freeway at speeds and only 1 person honks lol. In america if that happened it would cause a 500 car pile up because for some reason most drivers here dont understand how wide their cars are and think there toyota prius is a assault tank's width. He scraps a car at around 5:25, and ALMOST wrecked at 4:06 ish. I think it would be funny if that was his comute to work at mcdonalds or something.

  14. yea but in accidents, a person in a car is less likely to be fataly injured or become a vegetable. Dont you think ? I agree with the de stress thing to it is a great stress reliever, it kind of erases every thing else in your mind for the time being, because you concentrate on your surroundings and dont let your mind run wild.
  15. Does this make sense to anyone else? I ride because i like the feeling and its amazing. I dont quite get the same feeling as i do in a fast convertable. But risk reward, i am hearing more and more people say that they dont want to, and know it would be fun but they cant risk dieing...i hear that and i kind of cringe but are they really that far off? Im thinking the chances are higher and higher with every crash that in the future bikes could very well get banned off the track.
  16. The second one is the reason i make all passengers im with wear full gear at all times, i could never live with myself if that happened to me. Kind of like making my passengers in a car wear their seatbelts. Does it really hurt to ask? RIP Rider, thoughts and prayers go out to the family.
  17. I will be affected... negativly
  18. 555? i know i can get 3 or 4 that will go, plus a older guy that rides an aprilla that can lead and rides the roads every other day.
  19. forgot about utah, whenever i think about utah i think of snowboarding cause thats where i go to snowboard, but in the summer it would have amazing views. Speaking frome experience casper or just others?
