do you think the gloves are as critical if the grips are already heated?  this is new territory for me

From personal experience,  If you really planning to ride longer distance in colder weather the gloves really help even if heated grips. But for short commutes and only “fall temps” you can get away with heated grips.

Beautiful days, got another ride in. Tomorrow looks even better but unfortunately stuck

when fedex "attempted delivery but nobody was home" and you were home the whole time... and nobody knocked or rang the doorbell to alert you of their presence... 

I have one better, I was literally sitting out side washing cleaning bike etc the whole time. Waited around till 8:30pm, nothing. I mean how many time can you wax the chain and stay out , so I closed shop and went in. Next day morning sticker on door. Attempted delivery.... 😳 what kind of magic is this? 

well season almost over, i guess time for winter whine. Peaks around jan feb. Plans for some meet ups/ carting? 

if the OR forum discussion was directly translated to real life it would look exactly like this

R1 got sent to the shop today. Got some baseline dyno pulls, and a flashed dyno pull. Exhaust and full tune happening tomorrow or Monday. Will have to see where we end up. 

Going full send 🤙🏽  The sound will be awesome 

Squeezed in another 150 mile run late into evening. Ride back was bit iffy as sun went down and  deers roaming around. 😑

Vfr was the flame 🤙🏽
 

Once you go V4 you never go back. The sound is just hmmmmmmm   Mmmmmhhhh .... delicioooouuss

New Fireblade should be announced soon. Supposedly making some pretty good numbers. People are claiming close to 200 wheel horsepower after getting rid of all the bullshit emissions stuff on the 2020 R1 as well. 

 

😂

 @jacobhawkins going to wheelie past him on the straight on his superbike daytona build 😎. I owe him some harassment too now that I'm on a big boy bike.

is it on the 600 platform or the 700 platform that jac is building? 
 

funny how Duc calls 900 bikes middleweight now, with 150 ponies and beginner friendly 😁

the expected prices on these things are ridiculous 😑

@Blitz. 😂

That’s the hair style been waiting for

If I buy this will you guys throw in the bike along with it?

Next weekend saying it will be in the 60's. If it's not freezing ass cold and it's not in the shop getting um... beefed up a bit, I may take the R1 out.

beautiful day. Prolly the last one. Lot of bikes out there today. Found a new riding buddy close to home, great rider, did about 180ish twisty miles real quick right before sunset. Even linked on sena and that made passes easy and safer, less wasted miles behind traffic, less stops and more riding time👍

I was sad to see that triumph unsold, when you listed it first wanted to tell you you were asking too much lower it and get it sold or else risk fo not being sold in private market because it’s kinda niche bike. But here we are, it worked out quite well for you and I think amazingly well. Great choice.  What ever happens in life follows a cycle and follows a reason and it happens for a reason. 👍👍

the trick is any sports bike thats been traded into a harley dealership is statistically going to be a better deal with minimal usage if any and minimal prior hard core red line RPM life cycle. Most prolly a garage queen trophy bike which was acquired for " more powaaaa status" 

R1 🤙🏽

see the tip right there

This has been the best riding season so far for me howabusa if you still want to ride give me a time and place to meet

for real, 2019 been awesome. I am very very very extremely pleased that i came back to riding this year.   Pretty sure all the active riders in here logged in minimum 10K this year, some even 15 + easily combined on all the steeds. (looking at you pauly) 

Riding gods blessed Ohio this weekend, wish I could ride. Working plus sick. Finally that shitty virus caught UpTo me. Pauly remember that recent atrocious days, I am going through that now lol
