Garandman Posted May 10, 2008 Share Posted May 10, 2008 Went to a Penguin Racing course today at NHIS and rented a Ducati 900 Super Sport. Fun! http://www.geocities.com/vstromboston/ducati900.jpg Who Dares Wins スバル Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Garandman Posted June 12, 2008 Share Posted June 12, 2008 Been riding to work everyday the forecast isn't bad. Fuel consumption per week commuting to work in the Subaru H6: 12 gallons. Fuel consumption per week commuting to work on the V-Strom: 4 gallons. More fun and F OPEC! Who Dares Wins スバル Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coxx Posted June 12, 2008 Share Posted June 12, 2008 might as well check in here. Just picked this up last week http://i65.photobucket.com/albums/h213/Rcoxx/ninja.jpg 94 ZX-6 Ninja. I got it used for cheap. This is the 1st bike I've ever owned & I haven't rode regularly for years. I was smart & took the MSF course though & I've been takin it out after work & shakin off the cobwebs on my riding skills "Barack Obama, mothaf#%@a! Barack Obama!

coxx Posted June 12, 2008 Share Posted June 12, 2008 Nice! Perfect way to get started. thanks I forgot how much fun it is. I figured a cheap bike is good to start. If I make some mistakes on it I'm not gonna be all that upset like I would be on something nicer/newer. It's also an older 600 so it's not as powerful as the new ones. Definitely powerful enough to get hurt though if you're not careful. "Barack Obama, mothaf#%@a! Barack Obama!

05GT Guru Posted June 12, 2008 Share Posted June 12, 2008 Just picked up a 2001 cbr 600f4i, custom painted candy tahitian blue with a two brothers exhaust and power commander. Its my first sport bike and its a blasty blast. I love getting 50mpg on a 10 second vehicle Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SubLo Posted June 12, 2008 Author Share Posted June 12, 2008 Maybe I should start the panzy thread but I'm fittin' to pick up a used Vespa LX150 for commuting 15 - 20 miles or so into the city as I'm working a lot now and moving further out into Queens. I keep eyeballing them all over Manahattan sidewalks and it looks like a great option. I don't want to commute on my Interceptor all that much. I fear theft and more so, damage in the drinking areas where I work. ________________________________________________ [URL="http://legacygt.com/forums/vbpicgallery.php?do=view&g=1980"]'05 BSM OBXT Row-your-own, W.I.P. :rolleyes:[/URL] [URL="http://legacygt.com/forums/vbpicgallery.php?do=view&g=1242"]'06 Shrek B # 64 - The car the wife loved to hate :( Sold...[/URL] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They're parked all over up & down the blocks outside my building & all over lower manhattan. I just wouldnt want to ride if over the triborough though "Barack Obama, mothaf#%@a! Barack Obama!

I just wouldnt want to ride if over the triborough though Yep. Here in midtown too. Though illegal to park on sidewalks, the PD seems extremely tolerant. I've never seen one ticketed or towed. Just about everyone does the "Velcro license plate" trick - taking it with them when they park. I do fear imminent crackdowns at some point however. ________________________________________________ [URL="http://legacygt.com/forums/vbpicgallery.php?do=view&g=1980"]'05 BSM OBXT Row-your-own, W.I.P. :rolleyes:[/URL] [URL="http://legacygt.com/forums/vbpicgallery.php?do=view&g=1242"]'06 Shrek B # 64 - The car the wife loved to hate :( Sold...[/URL] Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They did do a crackdown here outside one of the buildings. This guy said all the tickets would get thrown out though b/c they'd rather have a bunch of vespas out there than a bunch of cabs.

05GT Guru Posted June 12, 2008 Share Posted June 12, 2008 Hmm, it must just be illegal where you are, because around here and in most states anything under 50ccs is treated like a bike, which means you can use bike racks and or the sidewalk. also with a 50cc or less scooter you dont need a motorcylce liscense, just a drivers id.

Now that my exhaust is mounted & stuff. I went Down town here in Toledo Ohio on Sunday & took a bunch of pics heres the ones I submitted so well see. Let me know what ya think . I was looking for some real Industrial areas like beat down but man it was so hot I took about 125 pictures. Bike is a 2006 Triumph Daytona 675 with a few things done to it. I painted the rims Gold & black to match the stickers, had the upper triple tree , rear sets, passenger pegs, shifter, brake lever, kick stand all powder coated black. Just added my AWESOME ixil exhaust. Let me know what ya think.

coxx Posted June 13, 2008 Share Posted June 13, 2008 You have a great bike. What did you get for riding gear? Thanks I'm havin alot of fun with it. It's been years since I rode regularly like I said & I've never had my own so this beats the hell outta borrowing a friend's beater bike I'm definitely getting something newer by the start of next seaosn though. I got some cheap icon gear for now. I figure when I get something new I'll get nicer new gear to go along with it The great thing about motorcycles is that even if you're an old guy, chicks dig 'em. :lol: well done.
