anyone here have a bike that runs?rode this month?

15.00 on feebay i love em just ordered 5 pair for the huys i ride with
the only thing i dont like is they dont follow your eyes only your head so jusy because you see something doesn't mean you get it on vieo (how did you embed my video i never get it right)

True - about the eye sight vs. head direction...

to embed the video:
- click on the film strip
- click the down arrow that says Provider and choose YouTube
- in the boc to the right that says ID - add the youtube video ID. Usually the last bunch of characters.
- click insert video

done

Wanted to try and meet up with Motorhead down in C-Springs, but I can't find enough time. Did get a couple of hours to run some twisties around Horsetooth Res to enjoy the Fall colors. A little different that doing them on the 750, but still lots of fun.





My "new" right muffler gets a loud buzz over 5k rpm so I might have to take it apart this winter and check it out. Front brake rotors also act like they are a little out of true so they are going on the to-do list too. Still nothing that's keeping me from having fun on the best bike ever made! :woohoo:

A Harley beat your KZ1000? 2 suggestions - 1. Get a professional tuneup; 2. Buy a helmet.

lol you obviously havent seen the HP those boys are making but i was realing him in when the yamaha blew the right side off i am sticking with the story I had a paasenger. I wanna a try him again one on one but I believe I will have my hands full








most of it is custom made and alot of you cant do thats incoorperated into it but damn for a streetable Harley it's freakin fast without the help of a bottle or turbo dont remember the dyno numbers

Yea, those twins are making some serious HP these days...it's really surprising. You know they're serious when they have a 2-into-1 pipe too...the drag pipes are so popular because they're so loud...but the 2-into-1 makes the most HP. I wouldn't mind adding an HD to the herd one of these days.

i got clean pulled on the 101 freewayt by san luis obispo ca 25 yrs ago...i was going 100 and this stinky looking 1% er on some gianty HD rigid thingy...came on the onramp and hit another gear and walked from me...i was doing all i had for a mile and he was still pulling me......later i read and saw pics about big,cc auto pistoned speciuals out of ventura and LA and the bike was like the one in the mag as far as i could tell...i wanna say nova psitons...anyhow....i knew how to ride plenty at that point and the bike was running decent evough to blow my gazzilionth hd away...and this cat walked like i was on a goldwing....sounded like thunder being behind the car pstion oppen pipe twin @ 125MPH......

anywas...some of those bikes got huge tourqe and when tweeked can go fast top end too...quite a combo

I rode this month, (October). A grey and overcast Saturday, 39 degrees. Stopped at a couple of hardware stores and every time someone came in the store I could hear them say to the owners, "I can't believe theres a motorcycle in front of the store!"

Got home about 5:30pm and pulled into the garage. An hour later it started snowing. We got about seven inches by the next afternoon. Though most of it has now melted off. I expect we'll have a few more days we can get out and ride before christmas.

I have one friend who I get together with and we ride any day we can this time of the year, up here in the Upper Valley of New Hampshire. Mostly because it really pisses off the guys who put their bikes in the basements and barns a month ago. (heheheh)

We have a running joke in that we call ourselves 'The Grafton HellRiders'
A bike club of two.

I ride every day

I put about 25 or 30 miles on the 750 today. It's the first ride since fixing my ignition and petcock problems, doing a complete rewire, and painting the bike. The bike ran great other than a couple minor electrical issues...but nothing that can't be fixed with a couple resistors (led resistance problems). It was a beautiful day, and a nice brisk 52 degrees. I am currently thawing out as I just got home. LOL!

congrats 70 degrees here today sunshining and have the kids and grandkids over. No riding only long mean stares at the ol lady

I ride my Yamaha TT600 (59x) almost everyday. It's still above freezing point here in Sweden, but I guess the snow could come in a couple of weeks. The most negative part of this part of the season is that it's dark untill 07:30 and gets dark again around 16:30 (that's 4:30 pm ) and the front light on the TT is as good as a bicycle lamp. I'm just counting myself lucky if I'll manage to ride untill the snow comes without hitting a wild boar, seeing how common they have become here down south in Sweden.
