  1. My HJC CL-16 has served me well for a first helmet. I'm now interested in one with a little more airflow and a little less wind noise. The two don't usually go hand-in-hand. The Shoei RF-1200 is on my wish list. It is SNELL rated, which is worlds higher of a rating that any DOT helmet, which I don't really trust, anyway. It's around $500 at Iron Pony. My HJC ran around $160 and is SNELL rated as well. I just saw this: http://ohioriders.net/index.php?/topic/107010-hjc-spring-helmet-blowout/#entry1432451 . .
  2. I would like a suspension setup. Work hours have changed, though. Don't know if I can make it. Last year was big fun. Funny watching the neighbor's dog run off with a pack of hotdog buns. . .
  3. Kawasaki's 2014 Ninja 1000 seems to have great reviews.
  4. And I'm sorry JackFlash.....not trying to offend, but I think your logo questions take the whole thing a bit too seriously. It should just be a fun design we can put on a T-shirt and say that we enjoyed a ride with friends. >>> Haha! No worries. It was a place to present ideas and that's all I did. I like the one that was chosen. It's pretty cool. .
  5. I can't help but wonder if someone high up is pulling strings to make the land available for development at a later date and structuring a deal to buy the land at a very discounted rate once the lake is drained. Just a thought. I don't trust anything the government tries to get us to believe. .
  6. Medium group. Willing to sweep medium or lead/sweep slow if needed. Work schedule and morning temperature are deciding factors on attendance. .
  7. I've read some good things about the 1200. Upgrade? .
  8. Or you could add farkles to an FZ1 that you have been wanting and be all smiles when spring gets here. .
  9. >> The app will quickly determine the quickest route and have you on your way. I like to determine my own route and I prefer to have a map-like image. .

    OH 555?

    Here is a list of Interstate Highways in Ohio. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_Interstate_Highways_in_Ohio Here is a list of U.S. Routes in Ohio. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_U.S._Routes_in_Ohio Here is a list of State Routes in Ohio. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_State_Routes_in_Ohio In Ohio, county route numbers are mainly internal and are rarely seen, and usually only used by the public when a standard road name is not present. In cases like those, the number is printed on a standard street sign in the format "Co Rd 46".

    No worries, Alan. I just figured you were hibernating for the winter. .
  12. For getting an Ohio motorcycle license, you will find many answers here. http://www.motorcycle.ohio.gov/ .
  13. Averages highs and lows for all those dates: May 16th 49°F / 72°F May 23rd 51°F / 74°F May 30th 53°F / 76°F June 20th 59°F / 82°F If it's in the 40's again, well.......no promises. .
  14. It's a course worth taking. I did it back in August. .

    Calling Alan.........where is Alan? Maybe he only comes out after the spring thaw. .
  16. I'm just playing with ideas here.
  17. The word, "EPIC" indicates to me a special one time occurance related to a certain event. Is every ride going to be epic? Using the word "epic" every time seems to take away anything special about our rides in general. These rides might then be viewed as, "Just another ride by those guys on that website." How about wording similar to: EPIC SERIES Ohio Spring Ride May 2015 or EPIC SERIES Ohio Fall Ride September 2015 or THE EPIC OHIO SERIES Spring Motorcycle Ride May 2015 ...or something along those lines? .
  18. Should the logo distinguish between a spring ride and a fall ride that happens in the same year? .
  19. I think for legal reasons, the "Ohio Riders" name or logo should not be a part of our rides, just in case there is an incident where an injured rider may feel damages are due to them and a lawsut comes up. The more legal distance between the website and rides we participate in, the better. That protects the website and Casper, as well. .
  20. "You are not allowed to use that image extension on this community." This is what I'm getting when I try to post. I'm copying and pasting from Google images. What's the fix? This is one of the images: .
  21. They seem to have issues with the site every year as soon as registration opens. I think they get overwhelmed with everyone trying to access the site at one time. .

    It's been a full month for me also. Checked account. Still says, This order is marked as Awaiting Fulfillment It's no big issue but it is irritating and makes me hesitant to place additional orders. It's not like shipping hasn't already been paid. .
