Was gone all weekend at my father-in-laws funeral events and I just saw this thread. I missed the donation window, but wanted to say the OR really stepped up for Danimal. GREAT JOB!

Now get down to Motogp in Austin April 5th and stop by Mellow Johnny's, Juan Pelota cafe. Maybe you will see Lance Armstrong and compare notes on your surgeries. LOL!

Man Pauly, I thought when you bought the couch it was a case of temporary insanity. When the Duc aficionado bought a Jap cruiser, I thought, hell must have froze over. Then I read your post that you were actually looking at a Harley Ultra Classic Road Slide Guide Fat Boy Dyna Softail CVO bike. WOW, still wrapping my head around the Duc guy riding the couch.

Last weekend my friend installed Spiegler handlebars on my 2018 Kaw Ninja H2 SX SE. The clip ons were torturous after 45 minutes of riding, the new bars are very comfortable. It was a (13) hours job, had to locate and drill holes in the bars for the controls along with rerouting wiring and brake/clutch lines. The direction were extremely vague and missing steps, like most aftermarket accessories. Really like the new bars!

Put the bike on the center stand, leave the battery in the bike and plug the tender in, cover the bike. In November begin trips to Florida, unplug the battery tenders and ride the FZ10 or FZ1 in nice weather during the winter.

Din't know I was hangin with so many old guys... I'm 62 on the 10th. Glad I don't feel old!

Welcome to the OR! Nice looking bikes.

That is a true story! After 37 minutes without a pulse most people would consider a person dead, it's going take more than 37 minutes and 8 days in a coma to kill me. Many of OR people supported my family while I was in the hospital and my wife and kids appreciated the effort to visit the hospital! I'm with NinjaDoc, I listen to tunes on the Sena the majority of time, but it is nice to communicate getting out of parking lots, through traffic lights and stop signs, passing cars and trucks. Riding over 45 years on the street and the last 10 years using the Sena has made it easier talking instead of communicating like monkeys when you need a bathroom break, gas or food. JMHO.

Welcome, hope you have a thick skin! People can be brutal on the forum. 😉

I'll be there with my friend who will be riding one of his Ducs. Sam can have an orgasm over the Duc.

Trailer queen, bet a lot of miles on it..... oh, the truck!

We are meeting tomorrow at noon at the same Wendy's to ride in the afternoon, meet us there if you want to ride.

Sammy, I had to bust your balls, been boring on the OR forum!

Yesterday a couple friends and I were going to ride and met at Wendy's in North Canton. A guy comes up to us and see's my friend wearing a Ducati tshirt and starts telling him how great his Duc ST, and he likes this and that, asking all kinds of questions about the Duc. I realize the guy is Sam (Gixxus Christ) and introduce myself as Ricer1 (John), then he goes full Pauly with Duc syndrome, going on and on about how he likes my buddy's set up, blah... blah.... blah. In the parking lot next to the over 20 year old Duc ST is my 2018 Kawasaki Ninja SX SE, my bike is one of the only supercharged bikes on the planet pumping out 200 HP, every electronic gadget you can put on a bike. I know Sam has never seen a Ninja SX SE in the wild. Not one F'in word or question about my Kaw Ninja SX SE! He wants to talk about an antique Duc ST.

Welcome aboard, don't take many things posted on the board seriously and start growing a THICK skin! LOL😁

The OBW was a poorly attended, maybe the threat of rain or having it over two weekends dilutes the crowd.

I have Geico, no claims and no problems. I also have Progressive and had a claim on 2008, totaled bike, gave me the blue book value on my 2005 FZ1 and all accessories in full along with my medical deductible. Interestingly, they came to my house with the check only a couple days after the accident and I remember I was still high on narcotics I was taking for the pain. They really were responsive.

Welcome to the OR, hope you have THICK skin! Are you near Wright Patterson, everyone knows the Roswell aliens were taken there, maybe on a GE UFO?

Great ride @Tonik and @durk, 350 miles and good weather, fantastic route.

Getting the family together on Sunday didn't work, son is moving from Cbus to LA California in a couple weeks and won't being seeing him for a while. Maybe, Laguna Seca World SBK trip?

I hate to say this.... I'm OUT! We are getting the family together on Saturday at my house to celebrate Mother's day. Enjoy the ride!

Maybe I'm missing something, Mother's Day is Sunday May 12, 2019 and the Epic Ride is scheduled for SATURDAY MAY 11th! It's not Mother's Day weekend. I hope to make the Epic Ride or whatever it's called.

Sam, you are a gracious host! The food was great, good to see everyone.

So you had the GW painted white, I liked the blue color better!

ToniC, you going to do stoppies also?
