I started laughing at first because they were midgets but that is hilarious. It brought tears to my eyes.

BTW, killer mohawk on the dude that flipped him.

Would he take a kidney trade in? Or a kidney/left testicle combo?

I'd be willing to up that offer with a lung, I only need one.

Naw, I wish I was in the market AND had the money. I would love own a Duc someday.

Good luck with the sale.

Those Japanese always come up with some crazy stuff. I couldn't imagine trying to ride one of these with the weight of the tow on the back end, let alone with a car attached.

LOL,

"come and get YOUR love, chad"

Haha, I hate those damn commericials. I can't believe the government is allowing this many cell phone carries to merge, with the recent AT&T/Cingular.

Pretty soon, we will have 2 choices: ATT & Verizon. Then they will do a hostile takeover of Washington, and we will hail our new Mobile Overlords.

I wore a HJC for a while but didn't like the fit or weight to it, so I ended up getting a Scorpion which has a better fit and is more comfortable, IMO. But if you are stuck on HJC Id go with the carbon, that looks pretty badass.

MY thoughts and prayers go out to his family and friends. I never met him but it always hurts to hear about one of our fellow riders being killed because of another person's mistake.

Congrats! Such a sexy bike, your pics defiantly look better than the cheesy ones on the Honda website. I have been thinking about upgrading to either the 600rr or 1000 this fall and those pics for sure sway my decision. Post your opinions once you get a few miles on it.

I had the same problem last year when I had a bad battery. Bought a new one and it worked for 2 or 3 starts before it went dead. Battery tender said it was charged but kept on dying.

Charge it in the batter tender then take a multimeter to check the voltage, it should be around 12v. If it slowly discharges(like mine) or is less than 12v, its a bad battery.

Great ride fellas. Too bad 104 was closed. That road is pretty fun. Glad everyone made it back safe.

I was kinda pissed too that 104 was closed but it was still a great ride. I will have to go and find that guy in the blue truck so he can tell me how us riders will end up in a coffin, as statistic, etc, etc... And I think it was Zorro who had his rear seat fly off. I am glad someone behind you saw it go into the tall grass or it would have been long gone.

Start the "project" after you do a few track days.. then you will know what you really should be putting the money into for a decent track bike

Good call, I didn't even think about that. I'd rather save the $$$ and do it right the first time than deplete the bank account/not buy the correct parts.

or...keep the f4i as a track bike. i like that idea a lot better.

Yeah, I could do that but I'd like to buy a salvaged bike and turn it into a "project" track bike. Also, I have been trying to get Michele to come out on one of the group rides, but she is afraid to bring the 250. So I figured I'd let her ride it too, but I told both of them you break it, you buy it. Plus, 3 bikes would look damn sexy in the garage.

yeah man. Made my claim to a good amount of space in the garage and I'm about ready to tear the bike down. I got a laundry list of mods and upgrades for this winter along with a possible addition (SV1k...RC51...monsterSR4 ?) to the stable.

I think you join the Honda side of things and get the RC51. I also put the f4i up for the winter and started my list of mods and updates for the winter. The list is currently at 15. I am thinking about purchasing a 600rr(possibly 1000rr) and letting my bro ride the f4i after he takes the class and gets his endorsement in the spring. After riding for over 2 years I need something with a little more juice.

Yeah good ride, weather was great. I wish Hocking Hills didn't have so much traffic, but oh well. Next time I head that direction i will make sure I take a hammer and chisel.

I will probably be in for Sunday, hopefully I won't drink too much being around the gf's parents Saturday night. Just say what time and I will more than likely plan on it.

whaddup buddy.... the sv was suckin in your rear wheel on a couple of those straights too. were you riding very hard? you gonna be around this weekend?

Haha, I wasn't riding the straights very hard because I couldn't see crap from all of the bugs on the visor. I think its time for some tear away lenses.

+1 interested

And 11 does sounds a lot better than 9 or 10.

Hey, what's up everyone? I just wanted to finally introduce myself since I registered on this site a long time ago and read it on a daily(sometimes hourly) basis as a means to get through the workday. I've ridden a red/black 02' f4i for the past 2 years and will ride it any time I get. I have been on a couple of group rides with a few of you, recently Cleaner(whose 1000rr made my 600 look puny) and Tolli. Just wanted to say Hello and that I am usually always up for a group ride for some speed and twisties. Also, if anyone wants to kick my butt in some Halo 3, my XBLA is Clown40.

+1... yeah Tomin, i'm down for that ride

Sweet, I tried to purchase the paddock pass today online but now they are only available at the front gate, hopefully there will be some on hand to purchase.

No route details...Don't want to have COPS waiting on us.

Yeah, no crap. I think someone posted on another thread that the cops were going to step up their presence this weekend.

I will probably meet and ride up with you guys on Sat. My buddy and I bought tickets just for Saturday. As long as he is in (which I am sure he will be) I am in. Is it the BK just North of 750?
