Brown likes to hit the twisties on occasion.....usually because he is too lazy to change out the nasty bong water.... :p

Yep twisties are nice. Used to love getting up early in the morning and riding Caynon roads before work when I lived out west. Makes the day go so much better. Unfortunately I'm here in IL now and we seem to be shit out of twisties around here. :cry: Also, my bike is hibernating from the 17 temp in the garage. But I do hope to ride the famous "Tail of the Dragon"- Deals Gap TN this summer. Never been there but it supposed to be some of the best riding around. :cool:

I have a '95(eek) CBR900RR, fast enough for me.
MVG here on the boards keeps tempting me to break it out again.

No, my last bike was a 98 Suzuki TL1000R that I put over 53,000 on before being side-swiped on the 91 freeway by a nice lady that has HER M1 and rides with her husband......didn't think to signal or look in her mirrors before hitting me and knocking me accross 4 lanes of traffic. Went on a 2 year hiaitus before getting the CBR last July......The deal with my wife is that I only use it for fun on the weekends-no more using it for work and commuting!! I can live with that!!!(no pun intended)

Sean,
Doing good!! I have been trying REAL hard to not order a wheelset for my CRF450.......That would be too much fun!!! If I had made mine street legal when I had the chance, then I would have already!!!!!! One of my buds that also has a CBR1000RR just picked up a KTM motard!! He says he is having more fun on that thing than he knows what to do with!!!
Chris
p.s. HI DIA!!! :D :D

I used to have a 95 900RR? Is yours the yellow purple and white paint scheeme? That was a great bike. I'm riding a R1 now, way more power than I really need, but I don't ever run it lke I did the RR back in 95 either. I'm growing a self preservation lobe in my brain as I get older or something. LOL

[casean]

So speaking of riding, are you and Amy up for a trip to Glamis next weekend? Will be heading out Friday after work. Looks like there is only one other couple joining us, which will make so a small riding group :cool:

Hi Chris and Amy.
Now I am going to hear how he wants a bike again. Thanks. LOL Hopefully he is to busy with his racing schedules. :) Miss you guys. Let us know when you can come out. And drag Linds and Sean with you. :p

Funny, I always thought hittin' the twisties was tuning in Tokyo(aka purple nurple), while tittie phucking your woman. :devil: :D
I'd imagine both could be climactic while cruising through the mountains. :crossx:

[Ziggy]

I retired......... :p
What's with the new offroad bikes with street tires these days? The Aprilia/Ducatti dealer next to me has some wicked Italian bikes set up like that.

I have been known to hit some twisties with this...

So did you hit the ground? Luckily all of my getoff's were my own fault. I am a pretty defensive rider/driver.
Cool deal. I am always concerned when peeps buy a liter bike their first time out.

right on.
Yep purple/white tank, white/black tail section. Bitchen looking bike, bitchen riding bike. I bought it in '98/'99 after heartbreak with a girl. Figured I would trade up from my 600 and finish myself off. haha. The things we do.
I put 35,000 miles on it in three years, 75% of that was leaned over. I ran the shit out of that bike.
I have to put a battery in it EVERY year since I owned it though.

That one is a 996. The actual model is the "MS4R". The "M" designating it a Monster. It is a 996 Superbike without fairings essentially.

Palamar is one of my favs.ridden ach,ortega,idylwyld,gmr.

Yea, she lane changed from the fast lane into me....I remember flipping, bouncing, and then sliding until I came to rest in the slow lane. :220v: I was going 60, traffic was going 55.

Wes,
We hope that the weather holds, as we plan to head up and over Idyllwild tomorrow morning, and into Anza-Then make a loop through Borrego Springs and up Banner Grade into Julian. Probably hit Palomar for good measure......IF the weather cooperates!!

I will be showing two clients boats #2 and 3 and taking them for test drives in #1...
Thanks though... I have been covered up lately.

[SoCalHD]

It will happen......It will be nice when it warms up a bit and ya don't have to worry about ICE around that next corner!!LOL

[STV_Keith]

Got rid of my F2 back in 97, but still go ride with Dad at least once or twice a year. He's usually got at least two hanging around.
His CBR1100xx Blackbird is the most fun to ride IMO. Of course, with 260hp/160ft-lbs on tap, what isn't? Gotta love a turbo. :rollside:

Hell yeah, I ride every chance I get. Have 86k on my old RF600r that still gets to turn a few laps on Willow. I've ridden for ,, well, going on 20 years. I ride rain or shine. In fact, did a couple iron butt rides to Havasu last year. I'll be riding next week hopefully. As long as the weather holds out. I'll PM my # to you if you want. It's an old bike, but it still does the job.
