Well, it was a beautiful day so we went up to the PA grand canyon.. its an amazing trip with smooth curvy roads.. i think our avg speed was about 80-90 on the sweepers.. my buddy just got some fancy pants (knee pucks) for his zx14...

Oh and as soon as I got there I noticed my back tire had cords showing.. I had just lubed the chain this morning and the tire was fine(aka no cords lol)..getting low but still looked ok.. this tire lasted about 3000 miles.. ill be getting the correct one next time (got the pilot POWER instead of the ROAD ct2). But we rode REALLY aggressive the whole way up.

Nice man, looks like an awesome trip.

It sometimes amazes me how far I can seperate myself from the rest of the world on a good ride like that.
 
Grenbean, how right you are man.. Its like you are in a different world.. just you and the bike... at one point on the ride up there you pass this beautiful pond....big as a lake.. just gorgeous.... its like... camping at 100mph!! And as you pass the people..they look and you know they are thinking.... "cool!"

Nick.. it does look better in pictures.. ill be honest. It has some scratches, but cleaned up it would look great. Im actually going to completely redo the bike over the winter. It will be amazing when im done!
 
ya know mabey we should plan a trip sometime..you come half way me and red come half way.. make a day of it
 
absolutely. I will round up some good folks and you can bring your cruiser buddies from the other day:laugh: just kidding. Yeah definitely man, I think we should get together. I didnt start to like pa until I bought this bike.

I just have to get a rear tire first.
 
lol so does red...hope he fixed that...and i need a new front...that project is for beginning of next week
 
truth is, im a moron. I impulse bought a new leather jacket today.. 200 bucks.. right before my tire showed bands lol... So im wearing my tire...
 
yea but if that shows threads...you would be thankfull it wasnt skin
 
well definitely..and i had a good cordura jacket... but black leather just does something to a man on a mission...:whistle:
 
lol yeah I got the rear tire, gotta order front soon. I'm gonna end up havin to sell my Kimber i'm sure....just gotta get some debt off my back
