Motorcycles BS Thread 2.0

trust me ive been working on it, the 500 comes up with ease, its just finding the nerves to bring it up a little bit higher and holding it thats tough

 

And then dodging busses

 

no swerving oncoming traffic
i can be stupid but not that stupid

thats more of a pedal bike thing anyway honestly

i do love the culture though... these guys are amazing albeit reckless

 

Let me know for sure once you get this firmed up then shoot me an address to meet you all.

 

Cover that rear brake!

 

Man, i had a street legal one for awhile, LOVED it. on the trails it was like a mountain goat, idle up anything. Never should have got rid of it

 

The Scrambler isnt bad especially for an introduction to gravel

 

Thats most of it, + the fiance's tiguan and her Tracker.

Missing my 77 Scottsdale, 75 grandville, and a 1990 ninja 250.

 

Airplane ticket is booked! Plane lands at 9:20am on the 12th. Get those bikes ready!

 

Is @FreshOldTaco picking you up?

 

yea, i have wanted a scrambler since they came out, i love the retro vibe and have always had a thing for the Ducs. The XR's and all street legal dirt bikes in my area are expensive, like i said, never should have gotten rid of it. Also, a very user friendly bike offroad(the XR 400)

 

Nice! Just PM me an address and time to meet up with you all. I might just head down to Philly early and hit Revzilla store first. Or should we make that a destination stop for a group ride?

 

Id like to go. It's probably empty just like their website

 

Shit just got real!

Yup that is the plan

 

I've been there 3 times in the past several years. Keep in mind the store front operation is only riding gear, no parts, tires, etc. With that being said I've never been to another motorcycle store with a better selection of boots, helmets, jackets, etc. anywhere. They had a couple of different bikes in the showroom of different styles so that if you try on riding apparel you can sit on the bike closest to your own and see how it will fit when in a riding position not just on a chair or standing in the store. They don't allow you to go outside with it for security reasons and with it's location in Philly I get that. Maybe I've just been lucky but I've always had good luck with my purchases from them.

 

I guess you haven't tried to order anything in the pandemic. Everything is sold out now.

 

Tires, I've ordered tires.

Oh, new riding boots but they had my size and what I wanted in stock and on closeout. I think I even posted that link on here earlier this year. Beyond that I guess I'm just fortunate enough I haven't needed much new in a while. New GPS came from Amazon during one of their sales.

 

It even comes with a 10mm ratchet? Thats amazing
