  1. I too have heard this confirmed by some Gap regulars... I've also heard patrols were heightened during the week, but the weekend was redonkulous.
  2. Yup... and those statistics are used for ratings, subscriptions, and site hits... Which is used to charge advertisers more...
  3. That's fucking BS. I hate knee-jerk reactionary crap like this... Nevermind that this is largely in response to people speeding through residential neighborhoods leading up to the Gap... Don't put the patrols there... That would be silly.
  4. I just PM'ed you with the same shit pretty much...
  5. Another thought too... If you are considering a 240 rear, then getting deep in the twisties is probably not your thing... Try out a sport touring tire like the Pilot Roads... They'll last a lot longer and are a high quality tire.
  6. Did ya check your suspension and tire pressure? I'd do that before forkin' out the green for a new tire... they're both free! Also, general rule of thumb as I have been taught is to keep your tires standard from front to rear... Mixing and matching two different tires, with different grip and other characteristics is probably not a good idea... Bottom line, front and rear are designed to work together and unless you really know what you are doing, you probably shouldn't fuck with that. I'd also go with the stock 190... The engineers put it on there in the first place for a reason, why fuck with it? Plus, you need to consider what the change in tire width is going to do to your tire height as well. A 200 tire is not going to fit on your rim the same way so the 50 sized 200 will actually have a higher overall profile from being pinched, despite both the 190 and the 200 being 50's... In other words, it'll increase the tire's diameter in relation to stock. Now the difference may be negligable in this instance, but in others it may not. It's surely worth considering though. That being said, if you do buy new tires, I give props to the Diablo's. I have them on my bike and they are pretty nice. I will say this though, they do square off REALLY quickly, but I have not noticed any problems in the twisties. I have over 3k on mine, 1k or so were really hard miles... I am guessing another 2k out of them...

    Go to 'Photos' and then there's a link for 'Upload' in the middle of the screen under the first row of pics. WTF?
  8. You should have just taken off...

    riding group?

    There's group rides posted on here at times, mostly in C'bus.... Post one up in your area's section... Hell, this post might prompt something...

    hey

    Nice bike... I've always liked Gixxers of that era.
  12. That's a fantastic pic... and way too nice of a way to handle the situation. I'd hit that shit. I think this one is the best option. Fat chicks give great BJ's and can be money in the sack... right? BWAHAHAHAHAAHA!!! Just do what I do, take the passenger crap off and don't take anyone for rides. Taking someone else for a ride just sucks, it changes the bikes handling characteristics and it's hard to find passengers that know what the fuck they are doing... I'd rather a chick use my for my body rather than my bike... like God intended it... or I dream of it... whatever.
  13. You got those blinkers like are on the back of your bike Rod? I think I remember you mentioning you may have an extra set...
  14. Not to mention that a lot of these guys have zero riding experience before buying their HD...
  15. Target fixation is bad boys and girls. Look where you want to go... If that's into the guy who just crashed, just keep watching him!

    I think those dudes should have butcher knives duct taped to their hands and the be forced to settle it in a cage match... On a side note, that chick singing had some massive milkers...

    Just outside of McConnellsville on rt 60 IIRC... I went back there a couple times... No dice... I think it was a once in a lifetime sort of thing... Good call!

    I am planning a part II for the end of the season... I covered so much in part I that it's sure to be not quite as lengthy...
