No worries, no worries. Everyone will have a great ride. Even if it is a bit more laid back, even the more experienced riders will enjoy the hell out of riding roads they didn't know were so close to Dayton.
Who just cruises on a 1000? My wife has a Ninja 650r and it's fun to ride for a beginners bike. It never feels like it's going to get away from you, but it's painfully lacking any real sportbike feel.
No idea. It must be new. We used to go tot he Hooters all the time before it closed and never saw a bike night happening over there. The one at Hooters many years ago used to be pretty good before a lot of assholes made it easy for the uptight types to put pressure on the property owners in that area to frown on bike nights. What night is it on? It's 5 mins from me so I may run over and check it out.
The dirt track races there are a blast to watch. I've tried to ride with groups of cruisers, but I think that group ostracizes sportriders more then we do them. Sucks sometimes as I don't mind a nice easy ride on the weekend especially if I've ridden to and from work all week.
No doubt which is why I threw the "(06)" in there. I would be interested to see just how alike or different both '08s are especially considering there's only a 29 lb difference between them.
Man there's what I'm afraid of and what I would hope would happen. I'm keeping hope alive and am thinking along the same lines as Magz. Fonz: Hitlery Friday 6/13 Magz: Jim Webb mid july... Fusion: Jim Webb 1st week of July
