This was just an unfortunate accident from a kid who was 16 years old. The article stated that the kid; "grew up on motorized bikes, quads, Sea-doos, ATVs and motorcycles since he was 18 months old. Allen permitted Austin since age 15 ½ to ride his Yamaha FV6." And the father had preached safety first and ridden with him the kid was 16. The father had trusted his son on a bike and was trying to make him happy. How many times when you were 16 did you disobey your parents? I can count endless times. The father just made the call based on how well his son and ridden with him. He trusted his son that he would make the right decision on the bike. Didn't matter if it was a 600, 750, or 1000, the kid would have done the same thing. It is just a very unfornate situation, were the kid "disobeyed" his father and ended up getting killed. I feel very bad for the family, especially the father. R.I.P.

Wouldn't want to tip it over. You would need a crane to get it righted.

Id like to head down Sat with you guys too. That would be sweet not to have to worry about riding down sunday and get a little with you guys on sat.

Pretty sweet, I really dig that Slayer model "Each helmet is produced in limited quantity with each actual helmet certified and numbered and with its own Certificate of Authenticity. Once they are gone, they are GONE!"

Awesome!!! There is nothing wrong with a pig roast, fire, and some boozin.

Damn $170 for too bottles, that does seem pretty expensive. From what Flounder and OG said, just make sure you use sugar with it. When ive had it in europe they would caramelize the sugar by burning it before they mixed it with the absinthe. A bartender in russia lit the absinthe on fire then poured it from one glass to another mixing it with the camerlized sugar, crazy russians. Good stuff, just watch for those fairies!

Id probably be in for this, saturday or sunday would work.

Love the pics. Went up there Saturday but forgot the camera. The red flags were making the race a little slow... but always good to see. BTW, I don't know if anyone else saw the guy with the new Desmo with temp tags still on?? We walked up to the Ducati tent right as he was about to leave. Bike looked very small and compact, IMO. He revved it a few times and it sounded so sweet, you could just hear the power of that engine.

Yeah, the girlfriend kept on commenting on how many riders she saw on Saturday wearing no helmets, sleeveless shirts, and even sandals. People just being retarded and not protecting themselves in some way. It sucks anytime we hear anything like this. My thoughts go out to their family and friends. RIP.

Thats pretty sweet. I wonder if you would get dizzy from going around in a circle that quickly.

Might join up with you guys Saturday morning with 3 hot triplets, 1 on the passenger seat and 2 in the side car. Oh wait, Dammit, that's just my imagination. Doubling up with the gf for the ride up, so if I can wake up that early, then we should be game.

Good ride on Saturday, pace was just fast enough to keep it challenging. 4DAIVI, thanks for meeting up with us and leading on those "country" roads. nochkstrps, the next time you get air off that bump on Morse, you need to add a can-can into the mix.

I am in for this ride if its still going on... Red/Black f4i.

I always tried to keep mine "hidden" between cars. And if I was going to be away for a few days, I would roll it onto the patio, even if my roommates were going to be there. It sucks this shit always has to happen right before you wouldn't have to worry about it anymore with a garage. Effin' thieves.

That sucks dude. Lived there for 2 years and I thought it was half-way decent. I never thought my bike was going to get stolen. Will keep a look-out and good luck.

Agreed. That's when you ride right past work and stop at some point to call into work and do the ole " I'm *cough* not going to be able *cough* to make it in today, *cough* *cough* not feeling well." Just like when you were 12yrs old and trying to make your parents call you in sick at school

Man at first I was going to go on this ride, but with Jon damming 541 and Wolfman hoping that no more ground hogs are tagged, I am having second guesses. Joking, it sounds like this is going to be a really good ride.

Count me in too. The gf has to work that day plus, the 600 has been neglected a little too much lately.

Don't forget his fellow douche bag bro who runs over to give him a high-five.

Don't know if you have tried this yet, but it sounds like your DNS servers are manually configured on the computer. Type "cmd" from "Start" -> "Run" and type " ipconfig /all" It should have 1 or 2 address were it says DNS Servers...... Make sure that these are the same on the computer that can't connect to the internet and others that can. If you haven't tried this, hopefully it helps.

Whenever I am riding on the highway, I always go a little faster or accelerate out of traffic to stay away from them. Why?, because I don't know what the hell that cager next to me is thinking. I have seen too many close calls were someone will just merge into the next lane or hell even turn their "right" turn signal on and then merge left. The reason I think lane splitting at these speeds are ridiculous is because you are putting your life into someone else's hands. You don't know what they are going to do. For those that took the MSF course that is the one thing I can remember them repeating over and over. Yes, I do push myself and my bike in the twisties around blind curves, over hills. But, I am doing it in an environment where I don't have to have the added thought of what someone else is going to do. At that point I know my life is in my hands, not in someone else's. Just my 2cents.

Haha, didn't notice that until you said something. That is hilarious.

Yeah, thanks Ninja. I officially suck at posting pics.

Laughable, man haha! Thanks Max I watched the movie last night then today a buddy sent me this link http://www.alwayswatching.org/news/geekin-out-big-lebowski-action-figures and I thought it was only right to change the avatar.

Who cares if you ride a sportbike or a cruiser. What matters is that you do ride and not what you ride. What pisses me off is the people that think they are the shit just because they own a motorcycle. And there will always be a few from sportbikes to cruisers to scooters.
