Thanks for the clarification on that headshrink.

EddieNewYork · February 7th, 2011, 01:57 PM

Is everyone cool on the location and time? (see revised first post)

If not, suggestions? Just remember, BlackWidow (South Pasadena) and Nattygirl (La Puente) can't do freeways yet.

How bout seaworld? I can get you guys directions for surface streets

Just kidding btw.

CZroe · February 7th, 2011, 06:45 PM

$22? How much are they sans group-buy?

Cazper · February 7th, 2011, 11:54 PM

I just Mapquested the directions... almost a 2 hr ride for me

I guess I'll do it if I have to... but I sure wouldn't mind a little closer down this way... I can only imagine for Cuongism who is coming from San Diego

nattygirl · February 8th, 2011, 07:48 AM

Maybe we can meet like in the whittier area. That's a bit closer towards the 5 freeway. Might save them like 20 min of riding.

Not sure of too much closer that way... just complaining for no real reason... if we are going to do that location can we at least do it earlier so that by the time we finish I'm not having to drive home too late?

Sure man... what time do you wanna meet there?

Cazper · February 8th, 2011, 11:52 PM

I would like to see either 10 or 11... I know that means me leaving the house around 8 or 9... but at least then I could hang out longer before going home. Not sure how early Cuongism want to do it... seeing as how his commute is probably closer to 3 hrs vice my 2 hrs... just a thought?!?!

Cuongism · February 9th, 2011, 12:19 AM

Google maps says 1 hour 55 minutes for me so more like 1.5 hours. I've made it into LA in a little over an hour before, but on my CBR. Anytime works really, but earlier does mean I don't have to have a clear visor.

EddieNewYork · February 9th, 2011, 09:22 AM

Updated first post. New time is now 10:30 AM.

Location is the same for now.

Blackwidow · February 9th, 2011, 10:48 AM

what a nightmare this is becoming! lol and to think, its cuz of us chicks that can't ride freeways. LOL

Haha, how long are you gonna use the "break-in period" excuse?

Blackwidow · February 9th, 2011, 10:54 AM

as long as i possibily can. you can blame this site, the more stories i hear, the more i want to stay away from those crazy freeways!

nattygirl · February 9th, 2011, 11:13 AM

I'm with Paulette. I drive to LA everyday and there is no way I would ride my motorcycle in LA traffic. People are just too careless. But I really am still in my break-in period. Only 244 miles. I don't get to ride as often as I would like.

EddieNewYork · February 9th, 2011, 11:38 AM

Freeways are safer though... no one making a left turn if front of you... no one pulling out of a driveway in front of you... no one running red lights...

Los Angeles freeways are full of people merging into your lane without a signal, prople driving SUVs too oversized for their driving capabilities, people talking on cell phones paying no heed to traffic around them, women putting make up steering their SUVs with their legs, tuner cars trying to show who is the fastest...all of this at 70+ mph
fun times

People drive like that on surface streets too.

But, yeah freeways are no joke either.

I forgot to add the one pertaining to this group buy... gettting rear ended.

Cuongism · February 9th, 2011, 12:31 PM

Btw, do we know what roads we're riding?

Not really... there's no cool routes that I know of over there, unless we go north but that takes you guys further away from home.

EddieNewYork · February 9th, 2011, 03:50 PM

We could all meet up in Santa Monica, that way we can cruise up or down PCH or something. I dunno... any suggestions?

Cazper · February 9th, 2011, 08:14 PM

Just a suggestion... but since I'm already driving 90 miles... (which I'm fine with just so you guys know)... why don't we do GMR? (Glendora Mountain Road) For me thats 89 miles and I'm sure we could find a Starbucks or something in Glendora and then have an awesome ride up GMR? Just a thought...

PM'd you.

Cazper · February 9th, 2011, 10:57 PM

PM'd you back

isikkest · February 10th, 2011, 02:53 AM

If you guys decide on riding near Santa Monica I may join you guys ...

devmasa · February 11th, 2011, 01:46 PM

Are these modulators legal in California? ...I am sure you guys must have researched this...but just making sure

EddieNewYork · February 11th, 2011, 02:03 PM

Not dot legal by the number of flashes in CA. See first post.

Alex · February 11th, 2011, 02:20 PM

I believe that if you do not cut the green wire, and it only flashes 3 times before going solid, it falls on the legal side of the line. If you cut the green wire (like I did), the light continues to flash, and is no longer legal. But if I hadn't done that, I would be continuing to release and engage the lever anyway while stopped, and now I don't have to do that.

devmasa · February 11th, 2011, 02:53 PM

so the default behavior is to keep flashing anytime you brake, am I correct ? or it flashes and goes steady for a certain time period before flashing again ? (like the comagination one )
If it doesnt go steady then my brake light would be flashing all the time in rush hour traffic.

Havok · February 13th, 2011, 10:35 AM

I will go to the ride and meet. Add me to the list.

Yea self control, I keep meaning to pick some of that up when I go to the store I just keep forgetting lol.

Tbh I still am unsure why I went down and my confidence is a bit shakey right now, my ribs hurt when I try and go full lean and I am missing my front left turn signal. Soooo yea GMR is out of the picture till spring lol.

There is a chance I might have to take my truck anyway as I may be droping my fairing off to get painted as the rash on it is driving me nuts lol.

Cuongism · February 16th, 2011, 10:29 AM

Forecast is showing a few showers. Hope you guys got rain gear!

Blackwidow · February 16th, 2011, 12:44 PM

if i'm too chicken to ride on the freeways, there is no way i'm gonna ride during the rain.
