nice truck those are pretty cool. if youre near cincinnati and need service or a wash, im at performance honda in fairfield.

not yet. let me know and we can hash out details. i found a campsite that is $7/night per person (minimum of $14/night if you're solo for anyone else reading) and $4/night for electricity with on sight hot showers included. figure gas for truck, gas for bike, campsite cost, food/beverage costs would be somewhere around 100 a person for 2 people for 3 night stay. thats not too shabby.

my work might be hiring entry level mechanic work soon. its a honda car dealership in fairfield, you would need to invest in tools. if that job doesn't open up, i know i can get you one with the detail company we use. i've known the owner a while, and its decent money (commision based on performance).

another reason northern georgia is fantastic, its less patrolled.

oh, if anyone wants to orgainze somethin with me, I have an open 5x8 trailer and can easily fit 1 more bike/rider/gear.

whenever I ride my dirtbike, I find myself standing mostly. I shift and brake more with my hip than my ankle. when I ride my sportbike, I find myself crouched or have the seat weighted mostly, and I shift with my ankle. I dont really know if I could fit on my street bikes with an mx boot, but than again im pretty tall. I also would imagine it tough to ride on the ball of the foot while wearing mx boots on a sportbike. besides being cumbersome, mx boots may be possible to get on a sportbike with... i'll give you that. I believe it would be wasteful to buy mx boots with the sole intention of sportbike riding. - Aaron Coomer for president 2016

part of owning a buell is you get every other buell owners phone number (theres only like 5)... we have to notify eachother of our whereabouts so as we're the only buell there. its a clause in the fine prints that you sign at the dealer. - Aaron Coomer for president 2016

very much this. as for my opinions, I think crotch-choppers are badass. ive had my chance at riding a couple. theyre loud, dirty, raw, and honestly kinda stupid... id love to own one. - Aaron Coomer for president 2016

I kinda skimmed over the thread a bit... im hoping to run a couple rounds. MS seems nice because of local-ness and seems a bit more user friendly than WERA. I have a kind of oddball bike to run, so im not really sure what class yet, and it would depend on who/what shows up on that day. it'll be pretty easy to spot, i'll be probably the only buell guy, with full on ghetto setup running street tires. yep, budget as hell. - Aaron Coomer for president 2016

this dude shreds a sporty. its really fun to follow. then again, he pretty much shreds on anything with two wheels and a motor... although all I seem to witness him ride are HD's and zook's... - Aaron Coomer for president 2016

^^this i went to mexico this summer, i called CC's ahead of time to let them know i would be there and for how long. that way they wouldn't freeze my accounts.

as far as a review of the actual boot... tech3's are excellent beginner/low end MX boot. great comfort and fit (although they do run a bit narrow if you have a wide foot). they wear great, good protection. as stated above, they're MX boots. they will not work at all on a sport bike, you will not be able to shift. you may not even be able to sit on the bike with your feet on the rearsets. MX boots do NOT (or atleast they try not to) allow ankle movement.

agree 100% i would even venture to say... give it a few years and we'll see a growth in mid class since there seems to be a gap from beginner bike to supersport (as far as standard/sport bikes are concerned) v-twin is the answer to the OP in my opinion. nothing rides like a vtwin, and i greatly prefer one to anything inline for street use. the only drawback i have to a vtwin is my fear of short engine life (from both heat concerns, which isn't a relevent arguement on a liquid cooled engine, and high performance twins are further stretched out than more piston counterparts.) although, i do have a harley powered buell and it is just below 30k miles... which is contradictary to my point... but i still have a fear. i've heard of 200k inline 4's that have never been rebuilt, but never heard of a 200k vtwin that has never been rebuilt i have never really felt anything toward the 650r. i believe the sv650 is a much better bike even though its design is so old. i wish they'd re-vamp the sv650. give it decent brakes and suspension. 75-80hp broad torque curve small bore vtwin thats light and flickable with a comfortable riding position? sounds like competition for the high brow manufacturers (duc, trumpet, aprilia)although, they would have to tac onto the pricetag doing those sort of renovations.

i bought my s1000rr from them recently. great to deal with.

this is the day I brought it home 9/20/12 you know I kid sounds like a great idea. I know some good roads down that way - Aaron Coomer for president 2016

I dont associate myself with harley riders! - Aaron Coomer for president 2016

I thought id wonder over here and see what its like. ive been on AFJ for a few years now, I know theres sometimes a disagreement between the two forums, I choose to not get involved in it. im just looking for like minded people to ride with. I ride a lot. I ride controlled but like to carry a swift pace, but ofcourse always AGATT. I have a 05 buell xb12r firebolt, a 12 bmw s1000rr, and a 01 honda cr250r. you can usually find me around falmouth kentucky on nice days, and whenever I get a chance, I love to hit the smokies. hopefully I get to meet some new friends here. - Aaron
