Got a long (5) day weekend starting Thursday-Mon. If any of you SOCAL / San Diego area riders want to meet up and ride? Let me know via PM. I'm usually down for Coastal rides and / or hitting Palomar & the local Mountains. I know some good routes out here in East County and the snow should be...

I have them, only keeping them on the bike because they are red and they semi match my SAMCO hoses and trim. Idid not notice any gains after putting them on but did notice that they do not like getting wet. I Got zapped once after getting home and drying the bike off while it was idling. Had...

Waiting for my new Clutch Master Cylinder to show up so I really did not do anything to my VMax today but look at it and lust for a ride. I did find a pic of me & the VMax on Mt. Palomar on the ride I did Sat. It would be a blast to get a group of Vmax'es together for a run up the...

Got out for a good 200 mile ride, did MT. Palomar and loved the feel of the new Drag bars and risers I put on after my tip over incident. Glad I reset the forks in the triple trees, no wobbles at 140+ mph I did briefly on the straights to make sure everything was good in the steering. I got...

I Agree!!! I've been a member in allot of other Bike related forums, This is by far the best one I've joined! Sure we got some characters here but the kooks, asphats and trolls that destroy the other sites seem to be absent here which is probably due to having good Moderators, keep up the...

Feeling better knowing I'm not the only one that has had this happen. . Ninjaneer; I got the black drag bars (7/8" diameter, 27.5" wide with a 3/4" pull back) and the drain covers at pythonmotorsports. UFO makes an adjustable 2" riser I want for $125. Texas-SS-Tornado; Thanks for the offer...

I guess I'm lucky, had it for 5 years and this was the 1st &hopoefully the last time this shit will happen. I used the opportunity to get the black drag bars I wanted and I snuck in a couple of little addd on's like these covers for the cylinder coolant drains... I forgot to order risers for...

So I was getting ready to ride to work yesterday morning, fired up the beast and rolled it out of the garage to the driveway. As I turned to walk back inside....it tipped over :damn angry: The Damage total was; Bent handlebars, broken clutch lever, damaged ISO grip, bent shift lever, bent...
