from 1000 to 750...

[VermilionX]

Ok, this is scarey...I was going to get a Shoei RF1000, but they didn't have the color I wanted so I got the Scorpion. The curtain only costs about $6...worth not wearing ear plugs.

Yeah, I hope I can get the bike I want soon...I'm thinking about the Interceptor...do you know anyone who has one? Any comments on it? I still have to sit on one to make sure it fits me well.

nope, sorry... don't know anyone having or selling an interceptor.

i do know someone selling a sweet 2005 powder coated all balck CBR600RR but im not sure if he still has it.

went riding to sand canyon w/ my new friend weegee...

meeting place.



weegee's bike... honda CBR954RR



pics from rest stop lookout...






i must say, that i get tired faster when im wearing my 1pc suit... i need to wear it more often and get used to it.


then...

we met up w/ another rider, mike and his bandit600S.

we rode tujunga and it's much more faster turns but there's this one part where it's all gravel so im glad i wasn't leading or else, i would have made a huge mistake.

here's shots from a tujunga rest stop area...

the gixxer, the CBR and the bandit.




overall it was a fun ride... they even complimented me bec i was able to keep up w/ them eventhough it's my 1st time in that canyon.

BIKE NIGHTS

images are kinda blurry since i didn't use the right flash settings. DOH!

i went to 2 bike night locations... one in the valley and one in hollywood. the one on hollywood is huge... it's like a convention each week.


VALLEY BIKE NIGHT!







MV agusta








bling'ed CBR, it's shiny, i just messed up the pic


cool aprilia




we decided to go to the hollywood bike night... we took a canyon road, damn! canyon riding at night is a whole new world.


HOLLYWOOD BIKE NIGHT! ... it's like a sea of bikes out there.







this ninja has moving green lights all over the bike (i should have taken a vid instead). very flashy indeed. i might go riding w/ the owner of this bike on sunday to the MC show.






this was very interesting indeed.

long beach bike show...

there were mostly custom choppers and cruiers... i only took pics of those that appealed to me but there are a lot over there.


parking lot... my bike looks like an alien.




inside the show...
















my bike on the dyno... it was very disappointing.





overall, i spent $50 for everthing... it's cool to see at least once but i don't see myself going back there next year.

Sorry to hijack your blog, but I have a couple Interceptors... you can peruse through my blog (Divide, Conquer, and Intercept(or) ), and ask me any questions you have there.

[VermilionX]

it's cool!

im not sensitive like some of the guys here.

"OMG! you posted a pic on my blog!"

i forgot to mention that i already tried letting go of both hands while riding.

i know, no big deal... but i didn't learn hands free when i was riding a bicycle as a kid.
