riding gear

Tell us a little about yourself and say hello to the gang. We would like to hear about who, what, and why you ride as well as how you found us.

riding gear

Post by peppers73 » Sat Sep 21, 2013 8:18 pm

Well i bought my riding jacket and gloves today. I had a good day of riding today. Rode all day from about 9 to 6. Stopped for gas and lunch. The I-30 west freeway is nice 4 lanes recently retopped nice and smooth. I was able to push the bike a little 120 mph. I went by cycle werkz and talked to Scott about tuning my bike. Hes going to charge me $150 to dyno-tune.
Anything below 90 is too slow -100 is just right -anything above 105 is icing on the cake!

You're right about that fixer, that area is patrolled usually pretty heavy. I got lucky this time.

I rode out to ecr today just to check out track day. Unable to meet with the group that went out there but did run into James out there. It was a nice ride out and back anyway. I am going to plan out a track day weekend soon.
