Rode with some friends to Quaker Steak bike night in Vallew View, Ohio last night. One guy we were riding with has always complimented my 05 12R.There was a giveaway for an 08 Lightning that night. We all registered, and when the first name was pulled it was none of us. The guy had fifteen minutes to respond and claim his bike. He isn't there anymore and his time runs out. they draw the next name and sure enough it is the guy I rode up there with who was asking all the questions and complimenting my bike. Needless to say we were all pretty stoked. |

Yes it was packed and an unusually high number of absolutely hot women. I saw one red Firebolt and a translucent orange lightning up there. We usually cruise up there and then go play for a little while later on. I live in Parma. As for the posting names I was clearly here first. J/K But yeah they are pretty close. |

Yup, you were here first! When they switched web sites a few years back I was working in New Orleans and didn't have the internet. I was surprised that the name was still here. I have to admit that it was cool to see someone that lived so close had the same handle! I have only been up to bike night at Quaker steak a couple of times this year. I work down town and stop in after about 4 pm My plate is (XB 12)Black 04 firebolt. I should have my bike back from MPH by next Wednesday and might see you up there. |

What were you getting done at MPH? The metric guys that I run with have nothing but good things to say about them. I guess they are pretty good guys for chassis set up. |

I normally do everything that I can my self but I am swamped at work so, Paint the rims Black, put new tires on the bike, install a techlusion TFI system, Wave style rotor w/brebo, MPH is also checking the stator, head set and bearings. This winter I would like to look at a 1450 big bore kit, but I need to do some research first and see if anyone has already done it and what problems they may have had. MPH is a little slow but I would rather have it correctly done! I ran into some uncooperative Harley dealerships and well I won't go there! |
