You guys deal in Rizoma or Rental?

I am still a maybe. Work is always last-minute with travel and whatnot. I may also be a +1, but will verify that soon.

The bike performed well enough, but I think Yamaha forgot to install suspension. I will have to remedy that if I plan to do any heavily spirited riding on Ohio's shitty roads. It will zoom to 120 mph and down to 60 with no real trouble, so the engine and brakes were installed correctly. So, I have that going for me...which is nice. Just at 225 miles for the day. Not bad for 4 hours. I think I will keep it.

Websites may die, but ideals live forever. Looking forward to seeing you soon, Tony. Ok, my clutch and brake levers, shift lever and rear brake are adequately adjusted. The handlebar is going in the trash asap. Absolutely wretched little thing..and bar weights are being upgraded. Tire pressure is a bit low, so I am off to find a free air pump... but so far, so good. She's a nice little machine.

Am here. Where art thou?

Nothing... nothing at all. So far this Ducati-free riding season is coming up roses. I may reward myself with a fancy helmet later on, so keep those deals rolling. You guys rock.

Right? Pretty soon I will be at Fontana, sleeping in a lodge room by myself and washing a giant ass cruiser while everyone else watches me while drinking beer on the patio. I may even start brewing beer, again. I might even share with some of you people, but not @Casper. FUCK CASPER!! (oh, no!! it's already happening.... HELP ME!! )

Time to see if I still know how to ride a motorcycle. I will be at the Bolivar DQ around noon. If you want to ride today, shoot me a PM. Route is open. Pace is subject to my comfort level and temperature. I don't care what you ride, but show up in proper safety gear and leave your ego at the house. Jeans, jacket, gloves and helmet would be on the lower end of proper safety gear, in case you were wondering.

If a cop tickets me for wearing earplugs, I will laugh my ass off and probably just treat it like a parking ticket and ignore the fuck out of it.

Front plates are dumb.

No worries. I will still wear two earplugs and raise two middle fingers as I pass through Columbus.

Honda turbo? Pleeeeeease... Don't even make me lift the hood on my Cruze Eco. Don't even...

ITT, folks that assume everyone can afford to replace their motorcycle if it gets crashed and at least one member that assumes track tech inspection is a solid bet.. even though tech inspection is subject to human error and most insurance companies won't cover your equipment at a track event.

Lubed and adjusted the clutch cable. Adjusted the shift linkage. Waxed the chain. Installed my phone mount. Not much else to do except ride the damn thing. Maybe tomorrow...

Welcome. Nice Yamaha. Looks like a mile burner. Good luck with the sale.

The concept is ignorant. Double the fork maintenance and the bike still requires a side stand? Exaclty what is the appeal?

Good for them. Keep those shitty little Groms off the road.

FZ6 is titled and tagged.

You sure that helmet will fit, @2talltim?

GO THE FUCK TO SLEEP

I think the whole "hope nobody gets hurt" bit is understood. [edited for content] That said, I have a list of friends that can ride my bike at a moment's notice. If you are unsure if you meet this qualification, guess what?

I would not buy it without riding it. Just because it looks good on paper doesn't mean you will gel with it. You and the missus are familiar with the Kawasaki and accustomed to certain characteristics. What if she doesn't like the Honda?

I lifted 4 slices of Gioninos Deluxe to my face and preacher curled some jojos.

Everything in moderation. Especially moderation.
