  1. We are doing a day trip... we are leaving Troy at 6 with 4... picking up 3-4 more in Sunbury for a total of about 8-10 depending on who shows at this point. We generally head back around 5ish. its 3 hours up from Troy, and I believe gate prices are 35 a person. its a pretty wicked day.

    KTM Sure thing!!!

  2. AMA VINTAGE MOTORCYCLE DAYS 7/21/12: Currently there are 4 of us leaving from our house in Troy at 6am sharp for the ride there. We will be stopping for breakfast along the way and picking up two more kick ass motorcycle friends in Sunbury. Anyone else interested in coming along please respond ASAP

  4. Thank you to my FANTASTIC boyfriend and his OH so clever brain to coming up with my bakyard shifter... Im pretty sure it was easier for him to figure how to make the bike shift as appose to finding out how we were going to get a bike trailer, a car with a hitch, ON A SUNDAY, IN ANOTHER STATE.... oh what a day.

  5. Well peeps, here is a great way to make shift a Shift lever in a pinch...

    By pinch I mean.. Oh being 60 miles from home and dropping your bike in a parking lot (thank you very little Speedway in Richmond for NOT filling in that pot hole my foot found)

    Yes I dropped it, and the dang Shift lever snapped right off and my clutch handle busted too... GRRrrrRRRrrr

    Take a U bolt and two square flat washers... some lock tite, a few cheep wrenches, a piece of buble gum, a tooth pick, a beer can, and a skittle (last 4 items were just tossed in for the McGyver effect didnt really use them)

    Here is what you get... ran 200 miles on my back yard shift lever...lololol

  11. It looks pretty sweet as long as you keep up with the silicone spray. But DANG is it a messy job. As far as looks it really just depends on your bike and what you like. I am planning on wrapping mine toward the end of the season. We picked up some for my boyfriends Triumph from Joe's in Dayton it ran about 120 for enough to wrap both pipes. Looks pretty sweet in my opinion.

  12. Thanks Guys. It looks WAY cleaner now. Im happy with it, just wish as this point I would have painted it, but thought different of it at the time since it would probably get chipped from rocks. Maybe this winter when I pull the forks and get them all polished. We shall see.
