yup..that's the one..HID, blacked out cowl and all.

she was wearing all sorts of black and pink...and not really payin attention.

ungluck · July 31st, 2011, 07:43 PM

we need a group ride

gonna pay the ninja off next week and keep her..and make her much more custom...color..bars, rearsets..suspension overhaul brakes..etc

anyway...we need a ride!

dkstariob · August 1st, 2011, 01:41 PM

Sounds good. Hit me up at 714-402-6212 anytime. Sorry about the last time flake out, family medical emergency.

And can someone explain more in detail about the Cycle City arrests and embezzlement? Sounds very interesting. Anyways Cycle City IS a huge ripoff with some of the worst customer service I have ever seen. No one approached me while I was looking at the bikes. Of course, I wasn't going to buy anything but COME ON now. The only thing I would buy from there are the Vespas since they are the only Vespa dealer in town.

ungluck · August 1st, 2011, 11:57 PM

it was a higher up firing of mutiple JN employees(they own cycle city) for numerous embezzlement and fraud charges and such...

it is all true..

Gorilla25 · August 2nd, 2011, 12:33 AM

im avail. this sunday afternoon if u guys wanna do a cruise...

Sound Wave · August 2nd, 2011, 02:56 AM

i was planning on going to the range to try out my new rifle. if i can't get my target frame built in time, i may be up for a ride on sunday.

Sound Wave · August 2nd, 2011, 03:54 AM

by the way, any of you guys got rifles that you shoot at the range?

Gorilla25 · August 2nd, 2011, 01:11 PM

sorry...dont got 1 yet....thinkin of gettin the PWS in the future tho

ungluck · August 7th, 2011, 06:34 PM

i do..but i don't go to kokohead..though i know people there....

plus..blasting full auto and using the round si use..would draw suspicion lol

pics of rifles/machine guns/carbines/bolt actions/pistols!!!!!

ungluck · August 13th, 2011, 11:51 AM

early morning ride tomorrow anyone?

Gorilla25 · August 13th, 2011, 11:52 AM

i would, but i have church in the morning

Mountain Dew · August 13th, 2011, 12:24 PM

I might be up for it, but I'm taking my bike in for some service today, not sure if I'll have it back by tomorrow.

@Sound Wave: I have a couple bolt-action .223s and a 9mm pistol. I haven't been to kokohead in a couple months though, so I'm probably really rusty. The last time I shot a pistol though was over a year ago :/

Powerlogix · August 13th, 2011, 12:27 PM

Hey guys,

I'm getting married in a couple weeks and going to be in Oahu for 8 days in September. Never been to Hawaii so should be fun. I wanted to rent a motorcycle for 2-3 days of it. Any suggestions?

Mountain Dew · August 13th, 2011, 12:33 PM

I know Cycle City rents Harleys, but I don't know of any other renters/bike types. You might also want to check craigslist if you're comfortable with that (just make sure the ad you're checking is Oahu, not a different island).

Sound Wave · August 13th, 2011, 03:24 PM

binh, what kind of a bike were you looking to rent?

i dropped off my bike to get serviced a couple days ago and realized that i am very rusty. i don't think i would be able to keep up with you guys.

Powerlogix · August 13th, 2011, 03:47 PM

I'm thinking a cruiser since we would be riding 2 up. I haven't book my hotel yet but will soon. I'll let you guys know what area I'm in. Maybe you have some suggestions for me.

Thanks

Sound Wave · August 13th, 2011, 03:52 PM

my friend found one in waikiki when he was visiting. i don't know how much it was though. he rented a harley sportster 883.

this is the one he went to: http://www.max-rental.cc/ hmm..... it is in japanese. then again, he was visiting from japan. i haven't dealt with any of the other ones.

about the ride, i will be able to pick up my bike from the dealership tomorrow. they don't open until 10 am. so if it is an early ride, i wouldn't be able to go anyways.

ungluck · August 13th, 2011, 04:22 PM

some ninjetters from newfound land rented bikes for a few days...you can rent almost anything but a supersport

i have band practice and bbq/drinkydrink tonite..sooo, lemme know so i can only drink a little, hate riding dehydrated

Mountain Dew · August 13th, 2011, 09:09 PM

Gorilla, was that you I was riding next to on Nimitz going towards honolulu?

Gorilla25 · August 13th, 2011, 10:52 PM

if today, then no..i was at work all day

such a beautiful day for riding and beach

Mountain Dew · August 14th, 2011, 05:39 AM

Ah, okay. I was riding next to a black 250J with an aftermarket exhaust. Sounded badass. Stupid me I forgot to ask what it was

But like you, I had to spend most of my day down. I didn't have to work or anything, but I had a few issues with my bike that made it nearly unrideable. I finally got it all squared away by about 4pm, but by then, I had to head back home and get ready to go to the movies :/

If a ride is happening tomorrow, I'm still on the fence about it. Feel like I'm coming down with something -.-

ungluck · August 16th, 2011, 11:32 PM

dont rely on me to set somethin gup..i work 70 hour+ weeks now...better job than JN( left after 2 weeks) but hotdamn...i'm getting my arse kicked...nothing beats the smell of cardite@6am

Sound Wave · August 16th, 2011, 11:35 PM

it seems really hard to figure out a day and time that a bunch of people can make it out to. plus the fact that i don't even have a 250 anymore.

ungluck · August 18th, 2011, 12:42 AM

you dont need a 250..someone setup a ride..i jus got home...i went to work at 430am... i dont have time lol

ungluck · August 27th, 2011, 03:33 PM

been seeing more new 250 riders out and about..bmmed a lot of them have tshirt and shoes on...

squaregamer476 · August 28th, 2011, 01:29 PM

im looking forward for a ninjette cruise. Its rare for me to see any 250s on the road.

ungluck · August 28th, 2011, 01:47 PM

i think me and kenji have seen you several times...on ft.weaver..i mean..in Ewa alone there is about 6/7 250R's lol

9709809872 text me..we'll go ride maybe later today? or tomorrow

the ones i have seen around recently are so loud even with the stock exhaust.. i don't remember my 250 being as loud as those.

went for an early morning ride today. it was fun until it started raining.

ungluck · August 28th, 2011, 01:56 PM

i wanna get some stuff and do a stock exhaust mod for now..maybe even shorten it a bit..but eventually full exhaust.

my contract ended this week so i have free time now..gonna be doin a lot fo packing and cleaning, which i wanna do midday when it's gnarly out..so morning or evening rides are cool..but i am game for midday rides since there is less traffic.

i agree soundwave..saw a new 250..brand effin new..louder than mine. crazy. interested to know why/how

Sound Wave · August 28th, 2011, 02:01 PM

i wonder if this is what they are doing? http://vimeo.com/9613554

i mean, i removed my intake silencer, but still, it wasn't as loud as a couple of the 250s i saw.

ungluck · August 28th, 2011, 02:05 PM

exactly what i am talking about..remove the cat and the stock baffles..glass pack it..reweld..good to go. shim the carbs and such. bling maybe a couple hp uptop and better sound

i was thinking of getting an exhaust for my bike, but since i wear earplugs anyways, i wouldn't be able to enjoy the sound.

talking about it raining earlier, of course now the sky is clearing up.

i am planning on driving over to the range today to see how the range is run and operated. FINALLY planning on trying to go shooting next weekend. still kind of chicken about it.

ungluck · August 28th, 2011, 02:10 PM

there is a large saety glass today..def go check it out dude. you can have questions answered and probably shoot a few rounds on some peoples weapons.

nothin to be scared of, if you do somethign wrong, good people will give you pointers and such.

ever since i got out of the army reserves.... ages ago. i have only been to an indoor gun range 3 or 4 times and that gun fair thing they had a few months ago.

yeah, i will check it out. maybe bring my rifle along too, but i don't intend of shooting today.

Mountain Dew · August 28th, 2011, 05:29 PM

I was going to head out for a ride at like 6am this morning, but I ended up hanging out with my friend and didn't get to bed until 5am. Now I've got homework and junk and won't be able to ride until next weekend :/

On a related note, Rise of the Planet of the Apes was excellent.

squaregamer476 · August 28th, 2011, 05:46 PM

I was looking at the area P quiet core type. those didn't sound too loud on youtube.

ungluck · August 28th, 2011, 11:39 PM

anyone need a brandnew in the packaging intuitive frame sliders? $115..dont need em...someone buy these..their collecting dust and taking up space

my arsenal stays a secret..robbing my house would be a bad idea...you'd look like swiss cheese if you stayed together..and running doesnt help either...lol

i am thinking of the custom route cos after buyin a house..we just dont have the $$ to mod the ninja anymore..though i do want rear sets, clipons and a new seat..oh and an undertail kit...and maybe a rear sprocket as well..better cruising rpm's..and speed...
