Illinois Red.I don't ride a lot these days,maybe 50 to 100 miles on a Sat. or Sun. morning(but I can do it year 'round so there's never any pressure).Just went out on my frontage road a bit ago to try out the GoPro external mic(in the Videos section),it's 64 degrees now(11:30AM)so I gotta go get out of this sweatshirt...

Sorry - I'll try to remember IL. I knew it was a state near me.

Just curious - Is there anything you don't like about CA? I'll assume Sales tax as I don't think there is anyone that enjoys paying upwards of 9%+ more for anything non-grocery, right?
So is there any other trouble in paradise? Or is that paradise's only problem?

Other than the politicians and the illegals I guess I really don't have much to ***** about out here Red,been here for 20 years now and guess maybe I've gotten a bit spoiled.

I'm just down the road from Jeff in Riverside, California. I've lived all over the US and I can't really find too much bad to say about California - good weather, good roads, good work, diverse riding opportunities. Some negatives - wacky libs (mostly coastal birds - not too many inland), lots of traffic, expensive real estate (but not so bad anymore...). And I think its getting better here, in spite of the population and the politics. Its one of the few places in this country where you can ride from the beach to the desert to the mountains all in one day and most of the year. And, in spite of the image most people have about smog, most days you can ride north on the I15 (past Jeff's place) and as you're riding down the freeway you can see a 10,000 foot mountain peak looming straight ahead. Cool.

It works great and is exceedingly accurate. I got this off of a group buy on Extreme Busa a couple years ago. They seem hard to find though. A quick google search and all I can come up with the Tiger Racing version.

Yup Brenden was making them, But he is Banned here, as well as he fell off the face of the earth!

Rhinomoto has a tool similar to that.

Nothing like a new pair of shoes.

Never have gotten around to getting the new pair put on yet Tank,keep telling myself I'll do it every weekend but the 190/50 rear is still going(5200+ miles now ).Have a friend with an R1 that is a hardcore canyon rider at least 2 days a week and he swears by them,switched from Q3's to the Super Powersports and in his opinion the Powersports hold better.
