Ughhh stupid work getting in the way of the more important things in life.

r6boater · January 9th, 2013, 04:59 PM

I am on call this weekend but...If a bunch of ppl from here are going to this, the dragon's call might just win out

If this group does go, I could easily meet up with you around the Chatt area..

DeviantTurtle · January 10th, 2013, 05:43 AM

Cant ride out to the gap, I have kids and trip like that requires planning!

BlueJeepYJ · January 10th, 2013, 06:27 AM

I would prefer a more local ride as well. That would be a lot of commuting to get up to the dragon especially with it getting dark so early.

Jeff

That and we have at least two very new riders joining.

vman1313 · January 10th, 2013, 07:10 AM

I am in for a local Buford ride. What time Saturday? Where we meeting?

BlueJeepYJ · January 10th, 2013, 07:38 AM

The area we rode last time around Dahlonega and Helen was fun.

fleemos · January 10th, 2013, 08:20 AM

I'd be in for a local Buford ride too, think it is more beginner friendly and we have some people with low mileage coming along. People have stuff to do in the afternoon (watching football for me) so I'd say we meet at 9:30 somewhere. Winston knows that area better than me so he could pick somewhere to meet. We should be able to get in a solid 4-5 hours and be home in time to watch some football.

For those of you that wouldn't mind watching it somewhere and have to pass by Roswell Rd 285 on the way home we can go to Taco Mac Prado to hang out and watch some football.

Do you have winter gear? I'll ride that route with you another weekend as long as it is over 40.

btw if anyone needs winter gear I have a suit from Cycle Gear that works really well and it's on closeout now so it can be had for cheap.

SEDICI Napoli Jacket
SEDICI Veneto Pants

SEDICI Umbria Pants look the same without the external knee protection

TacoMac @ mall of GA may also be an option afterwards.

How about Mall of GA Burger king at 9:30-10am, I promise Mimi and I will be running late! LOL

fleemos · January 10th, 2013, 11:38 AM

Okay that meet up place works for me, anyone can't make that time and place?

DeviantTurtle · January 10th, 2013, 01:07 PM

Lets make it QT off of 20 right off hwy85 the Mall of GA exit. Do you yall know where that is?

Xz1atl · January 10th, 2013, 01:20 PM

Right across from BRandsmart USa? Thats sound great. then we can all fuel up.

Xz1atl · January 10th, 2013, 01:22 PM

But to be honest I think I want to do a quick ride RIGHT NOW.... you know---- just to make sure the bike feels good after its mini hibernation

DeviantTurtle · January 10th, 2013, 01:38 PM

Yep, right next the Brandsmart USA

DeviantTurtle · January 10th, 2013, 01:46 PM

2900 Buford Drive
Buford, GA 30519

Dont forget to bring your Gopros or what ever camera you use

BlueJeepYJ · January 10th, 2013, 02:00 PM

Aghh.. I want a gopro 3!

If you aren't totally against it then Amazon had the Contour Roam2 on for 169.99 last time I checked, pretty decent specs. Only thing I really don't like about it is built in battery. Considering I have the same point and shoot for four years now and the battery is still going I guess it's not as big a deal breaker as it used to be. i already have a Gopro HD Hero1 that I bought before I knew they had a competitor but a few people have started to show up at autocross with the Contour.

I would rather buy the HD Hero3 White Edition for the same price.

Sipper' · January 10th, 2013, 07:11 PM

I see the Buford address, is this where we are meeting, or the QT, or where?

Where ever it is, I am in.

That should be the address to QT Mall of GA.

In other news my clutch is def starting to slip so it will def be more cruise pace this round for me

fleemos · January 10th, 2013, 10:02 PM

I challenge you to a 60ft drag race

vman1313 · January 11th, 2013, 06:55 AM

If I didnt know any better Id say fleemos is trying to kick a man when he is down!!

HAHAHAHA!! I wish I could have made it out to the drag night. Well not DRAG night but drag racing night!!

I am not posting my halloween pics! LMAO

The thing is, the clutch is slipping in 6th gear when hitting the bike peak power range...So gears 1,2,3,4,5 and sort of 6 still pull just fine

From what I read it might be because of the oil I am using!!! I switched to Mobil 1 full synthetic and apparently that will cause the ER650F clutch to start slipping because of the minerals used in the oil...So I am switching back to my normal Castrol oil in hopes that will fix the issue, if not a new clutch will be going into the bike next Saturday

vman1313 · January 11th, 2013, 07:39 AM

So you can change the clutch yourself? I am getting better at doing my own things to my bike. I was always scared to open up the BUSA and do anything more then oil and oil filter BUT with the Ninja - I aint scauured!!

Of course nothing has gone wrong with the Ninja (knock on wood) for me to have to pull her apart yet. See yall at 930 at QT weather pending.

That was then, we need a now result.

vman1313 · January 11th, 2013, 08:41 AM

DeviantTurtle · January 11th, 2013, 09:17 AM

I do wonder what is the best known 60ft time on a Ninja 250? Not to brag but I am pretty damn fast out of the hole!

You can have your chance tomorrow
