Yesterday Ride with Cali Rider and Motogiro

[Wavex]

Great first 2011 ride... It was awesome to ride/chat with you guys again :rockon:

John's new hard bags:

Testing their lean angle clearance on Palomar

Thanks for the pics David. :thumbup:

It looks as if I might get out for my first good ride of 2011 tomorrow. Hwy 25/Carmel Valley here I come!

 

[Erci]

I'm SO jealous

Thanks for sharing!

 

[CHEMIKER]

Looks like a great time guys, thanks for posting pics!

John, those side cases look really good (and roomy). Did you say they were Shad Rack?

A taste of riding during our winter hibernation here in NH.... Thanks David! :thumbup:

Yes Travis, they are. I bought them from Pseudo-Fed on this forum about a month ago. I had to make a couple of modifications for them to be functional but I am very happy with them. I didn't notice any affect on weight distribution or steering input, just a minor drop in fuel mileage at speeds over 75 MPH. Plenty of room for a full-face helmet or equivalent, this will be a nice setup for multi-day trips.

Pseudo-Fed also gave me the top-case mount as well which will mount easily to the existing side-case hardware or stand alone. I need to find a nice deal on a Shad top-case...

Amazing day riding! The weather was awesome and so was the company.
I was hoping Goop would be able to catch up with us and set him up with the Spot GPS tracking info.
Surprising that Rick Clemson Photography didn't have one picture of Wavex posted. The photographer might have been just getting back from a break and caught John and I.

John on South Grade @ Palomar Mountain. Nice Shad cases! Nice job on the mod to get them on!

South Grade Brub brub brub brub!!! V-twin!

Well get your ars back out here! Both Wavex and I took pics and each of us posted our own except for the Rick Clemson pics. They're samples from a pro photographer and very cool guy who shoots on the mountain most weekends there are good riding conditions.

John, you sold the ZX6r?

 

[Kazza]

Nice pics guys.

Stay tuned for the Tassie Tour Down Under pics later in the week

 

[Cali rider]

John, you sold the ZX6r?

Um....in a way I did. I totaled it in October during a big crash, and my insurance company paid me for the carcass.

Patience John, patience

Sorry to hear that, love the new ZX-6Rs. At the track? How? You came out ok?
