Like he said, we're always learning. I never leave anybody behind, for long that is... I always wait up at a turn or after a really fast section. I work by the Bi-Lo trucking center & Dukes Mayo. I really don't get into Mauldin much at all, since i live in Cleveland, near the Jones Gap...

Congrats on the baby!!! Kids are awesome! I also enjoy riding with others and meetin ghtem. Post up on here when ya'll are gong to ride. I'm on here every weekday at lunch checking out rides, but I really don't get to do too many weekend rides. But since I live at the bottom of Caesar's...

Working in Mauldin, I've tried finding some roads, but haven't been able to really find anything to cut loose on. Too many driveways on curve exits...

One of my favorite roads, that isn't travelled a whole lot, is the Greenville watershed up to and around Saluda. I never get tired of riding it, and I found some new backroads last year that are a lot of fun too. 178 to 215 to 276 and ride it all the way back :rockon: We usually only stop...

#1 - repaint #2 - Testor's model paint (lasts forever) #3 - sticker scratches aren't an option...

Good job, it looks GREAT! Only change I would make is painting the silver rad guards black... I sure LOVE the classic Yami colors!!! :rockon:

dang vader...pulling a thread from the archives ;) Sweet bike though. I originally wanted a red one, but dont' like the dark red (burgandy!?!) that Yamaha paints it. Sorry guys, it's just not for me... Same with the new dark blue :confused:

I"ll usually shift to the appropriate gear per my speed as well. As for shifting all the way at once right before stopping, that is what the owners manual says to do :confused: . I don't like it, and sometimes it'll get stuck kinda until you move the bike or let the clutch out a little...

can't go wrong with Alpinestars :rockon: I've got about 10,000 miles on these now and love them! Daily commuter & fun rides. http://www.alpinestars.com/Web_Goretex_Boot/pd/np/113/p/233507.html These are a touch cheaper, but still great boots I'm sure...

yeah, scallopping. It is just barely noticable. and I'm pretty sure it's because of the way I ride and the tread design.

I don't know. I just always grew up riding, and she knows it is pretty much a guy thing I guess. I also promised to buy him all the protective gear. She mostly understands the physics of how much safer a bike is than a quad too. :thumbup: I also tried explaining how much they learn from having...

For sure! Much more!

Maybe you should look in the tire thread? Each tire is a little different, but Continental Road Attacks, Michelin Pilot Road 2, and the Bridgeston BT018 seem to be the most popular for this bike right now for your style use.

Just wanted to give a shout out and let all know that I'm still VERY happy with these tires. I have 4,000 miles on them now, and they are wearing pretty well. Rear are about half spent, which is what I'd expect. Front is wearing a little weird, with a few high-spots and low-spots around...

That little 65 Cam's on is like a lightswitch. It is wicked fast, and it is still stock! Just starting out, a REALLY good bike for size, reliability, and maintenance is the Honda XR70 (3 spd. no clutch) or XR80 (5 spd. clutch). I think they still make both of them new as the CRF instead of...

Yeah, that was worth what I paid for my entrance fee alone!!! That was VERY cool. The boys wanted to get one to play with at the house :D . maybe someday... Is that your Jeep in your avatar?

I was thinking the same thing, but found discounts for $3 off per ticket, and Sunday was family day that kids got in free :thumbup:. I paid a total of $13 for all 5 of us to go to the show and park.

Cody 12 (started @ 5) Cameron 10 (4) Alex 7 (4) Isaiah 5 (2) Rachel is my oldest daughter, she just turned 3. I plan on starting her on the JR50 this summer with the training wheels. She said she won't ride it yellow, so i gotta try finding some pink plastic for it :D Naomi is my...

Thanks. Many people will try to debate it, but bikes are way safer than quads, esp. for kids. Numbers prove it if you can find them. We've been riding since my oldest, now 12, turned 5 years old. We've had 1 major injury, and it was a very fluke accident, but partially my fault for letting...

Couple Q for ya: 1) Why did you take them off? or why are you selling them? 2) What does it sound like with them installed? Is it a big difference, or you can just barely tell they're in there? Does it deepen the tone a little?
