Once I figure out PayPal this evening my deposit will be in, Bit of hike from North Texas but will be worth it I'm sure!!

About 32 this morning in Dallas, 35 minute ride in the morning was a little chilly but not horrible. If you dont go with overpants, I have found the flannel/fleece lined Jeans from LL bean are perfect for keeping the legs warm. Also go with workboots as the temps drop and no problems there...

Thanks for the links, back on a bike this year after a 10 year absence and really want to get to a few track days next year to refind the lost skills and develop more.

Hey Chris, I was most interested in the Ducati Monsters (696 and 1100) and the Triumph's. The Duc is very tight but the triumph Street triple was quite good postion as well. I really like the postion of sport touring bikes but also threw the leg over the R6, R1, CBR's and GSXr's. Those just...

I am planning to ride tomorrow (provided weather cooperates) thought I would see if any dallas area wanted to join in. Meeting at BJ's Brewhouse on 75 and plano pkwy in Plano at 11:00. Heading north to 455 west on 455 to at least celina (maybe 35) and then down to Moto Liberty for the midnight...

6' 2" here. Part of the attraction of the FZ6 was the ergo's. Seems the taller you are the harder to find that right fit. Went to the Dallas Bike Show last weekend and many of the wish list faded away as not possible for any everyday riding.

Thanks for the Thread....it scares me while shinning a light on the potential. I will hide this thread from my wife for sure. The mods listed are like asuport gorup that enables my habit....

There in lies the inherent dilema with riding sport bikes...the bike tells us when all is not exactly right and we find it fun!!! The wise ones see it, reflect and push the edges, the idiots run off, dump or worse. this group seems to be the former!! Thanks for the thread, I now know to be aware...

The cool weather and willing mount will bring out the best/worst in us all, happy to hear the ending was controlled with nothing but a good story!! I would agree my ride has seemed to enjoy the cool TX mornings of the last week or so as well.

Looks like a good day it is!! Thanks for the affirmation, as for cause just seems to be a freak thing, appears as though something got into a tread and tore/cut the tire down. I did not think the front went down, the feeling was immediate and thankfully pretty obvious moderate wobbling and...

Blew off work today to enjoy the North Texas 65 degree day and was running along nicely in NE collin county on FM1377 when I encountered my very first flat while riding, 60mph into a shallow sweeping curve and the rear tire goes down. A mild case of panic followed by a run off the curve and into...

I work by the galleria at 635 and the Dallas North Tollway and commute on the bike most days. Took today off to head up and see the Texas Track Days at Eagles Canyon. Most of my weekend rides have been up your way and east so far. I am riding down to the Motorcycle show tomorrow as well. Meeting...

Hello Kevin, I'm in Wylie also pretty new to the site and always looking for rides, send a note if you want run the bikes around some time. I'm out most days at some point riding!

For those that are interested I am planning to meet with a group (primarily cruisers but a few sportbikes in there as well) at BJ's Brewhouse off of 75 in Plano at about 10:00 on saturday to ride down to the show. Brian

Thanks, morning ride around far northeast collin county and trip to the show sounds like a good way to spend a saturday!

I have been looking for a reason to drag myself from Dallas up to Deals Gap and this is a great excuse. Need to plan a little with the wife but please keep me in the mail list for this trip, very interested in making this trip.

Anyone planning to attend the International Motorcycle Show in Dallas this weekend. I have attended in the past, If you have been in the past is this worth the trip to look at the latest and greatest?

Thanks Fred! I suspected something like that as I thought about it a bit more, I'll check when I get home.

Hello, First Mod, therefore first question to the group...Purchased competition werks pegs this weekend, no problem with the installation but now I would like to adjust the brake lever down a bit and can not seem to get the lever off the geared post. I loosened the retaining screw at the back...

Can't wait!!! Minnesotan living in Texas now and growing weary of Cowboy fever. Thankfully I get HNIC on the Directv package so all is looking up.
