Stunt show at Twisted Technology 6/29/2013

[crazymike]

Hey guys and gals,
I hope everyone is doing well. This is just a heads up to an event that a bike shop in Richland Hills is putting together at the end of June.

Twisted Technology is a fairly new bike shop. They have a certified Race Tech suspension mechanic, a really nice dyno, all the tools you could imagine and a small showroom with some fun shelf products, including riding gear, hard parts, oil and tires. The staff is super friendly and easy going. Most of you guys probably don't know me, but as a fellow rider, I definitely recommend this bike shop.

Come out on June 29th for a stunt show!!!!

Here is a quick clip of the kinds of stunts you can expect at the show.

I am off that weekend and I live right down the street. I might swing over and watch. Never heard of that shop.

[DemonDuck]

I will try to make it out.

[crazymike]

Sounds great! I look forward to seeing you all.

Here is the address again.
3819 Rufe Snow Drive
Suite # 101
Richland Hills, TX

Also, I think the show times will actually be 4 and 6pm.

If you live nearby, go check it out before the 29th to meet the guys and see what they've got.

So Mike, is that you in the pic? How do you like riding backroads? You should come ride. No one will make too much fun of dirtbike bars and extra levers. At least not your first time out.

[DemonDuck]

I wouldn't mind learning some proper stunting either...

[Stardog]

Lets get dirt bikes.

Hey stardog84,
yea that's me. I do like twisties mucho, mucho. I have a street legal 1000rr with all stock parts for that kindof riding.

Don't worry, my stunt bikes look about as much like a streetbike as possible with only subtle changes for doing tricks. But you can still make fun of me if you want, just come out to Twisted Technologies for free food and a chance to laugh at my scratched up bike.

Where do you guys like to ride?

[Stardog]

This gives a good idea.

Basically twisty roads as far away from "civil"ization as possible.

[2track]

I would go but have to get ready for the track on the 30th. No reason to make fun of you crazymike, your doin it in a controlled environment & your obviously good at it, that is admirable.

[Stardog]

He obviously knows what he is doing and does it correctly. Otherwise I wouldn't have said anything at all. I am excited. I have never seen a stunt show.

[DemonDuck]

I wanted to go but I am going to the track instead..... I will catch ya next time. EVERYONE SHOULD BE AT THE TRACK!!! The only 3.1 for the year.

[Stardog]

Hell.

[DemonDuck]

You know what you want to say 84..... you know you want to come to the only Ridesmart 3.1 event at cresson with me .... come mix it up bro.

[Stardog]

Well I am shopping for a track bike right now and though I will likely have one by then it is doubtful that it will be set up. Doing the 3.1 on my beautiful GSXR with a freshly purchased track bike sitting at home is just begging for a crash. Let me get this track bike deal done and I will be back to full stride catching every track day that I am not working. That said, I love the 1.7 and I love the 1.3. Doing both of them linked together would be SO MUCH FUN! As long as I can stay on the rattlesnake. Still gunshy through that section.

[Stardog]

In other words I am gonna go see a stunt show.

[DemonDuck]

Na ... just hold off on the track bike till after the 29th then you will have more time to set it up and get to have fun on the 3.1. If not you have to wait a year before you can do the 3.1

[Grinner]

Cmon dog...the 3.1 is calling out to you. Trust me, I can hear it!

[Stardog]

I am hitting the 1.7 on Sunday with the SV650 track bike that I bought today. Gotta order tires tomorrow and get them installed on Saturday. If the price is right I might get them from Twisted Tech. I will report back with a price comparison.

[Rhino]

Sweet, I'll have a riding buddy!

[Stardog]

Price comparo with another shop that I use-

Dunlop Sportmax Q2s 120/60/17 and 160/60/17 and wheels off install

Twisted Technology
Tires: $295.19
Install: $50.00
Total : $345.19

Rising Phoenix Motorsports
Tires: $270.00
Install: $48.00
Total: $318.00

Not a large cross section of pricing, just what I happened to need today.

[crazymike]

Where do you guys meet for Bike Night? How many usually show up?

Also, who is planning to come to this event on Saturday?

[Stardog]

Fox and Hound Fort Worth. I dunno, maybe 10 to 20 of us? Just a guess. It is tomorrow, see you there.

I am planning to make it to the stunt show thought I do have a lot going on with prepping a new to me bike for the track. I should make it.

[fixxervi6]

I may make it, I'm in the area, I just have errands to run Saturday.

[Stardog]

There was a surprise party for another Stardog that day so I was unable to attend. Is there going to be another show there soon?
