Calling all MC riders.

[scotchNstogie]

Hey BOTL,
First I was wondering how many MC riders are on here? Is there a separate thread for that?
Second I am looking for some suggestions, or interest in some spare MC parts.
In June of this year when I got my new Crossbones, I upgraded the pipes, intake, rider pegs, floorboards etc. When the dealer asked if I wanted the parts, I said yes... Now 6 months later I still have the parts...
Any suggestions on what best to do with them would be great. Thanks.

Dave

I did the same thing Dave and ended up keeping the OEM parts....I always just figured I might need them someday. If I ever decide to sell and upgrade to a newer bike the new owner might want to put it back in it's original condition.

 

[Mr.Erskine]

+1 on keeping the OEM. If something happens, at worst, you have the OEM to fall back on.

Thanks guys. I guess I will hang on to the stuff for now.

Happy New Year. Just saw your post. Yes there are several MC riders on this site.
I go through VA at times. If you ever get to PA give me a holla

I traded in my 05 Yami R6 for a 07 Nightster last summer. Trying the laid back cruising thing. Good so far. Gonna start the customizing this winter.

"As for a thread for bikers - sounds cool! You PM Eric on the idea?"


There already is a "social group" here on BOTL for mc riders....

Hehe - that's the slope!

Step 1. Dirt Bike (5-18)
Step 2. Rocket (18-24)
Step 3. Cruiser (24-55)
Step 4. Chopper (30-55)
Step 5. Touring (55-dead)

:grin:

Ha, Nice age breakdown, and pretty acurate. I had my 08 Nightster up until this year (actually I still have it, I just don't ride it much anymore) when I got into the crossbones...

Happy New Year! next time I am in PA I'll hit you up, How far are you from Philly? For sure anytime you are down VA way let me know. A MC and Cigar HERF... Now thats an Idea!

Sounds good. I will make a point at riding down your way next riding season. My sister lives in Williamsburg, Mom is in New Port News:cbig:

Got a 1995 Goldwing SE 25th Ann. Edition. It's bone stock, I love it....Would like to replace the speakers on it. The originals are great but i'm an audiophile.

1998 Road King Classic, love the bike, don't smoke while I ride. Seriously considering making a change this year but will stick with a touring model.

I would love an Electra Glide those are sexy looking machines! I love my Goldwing, it's great for touring....But it's just too quite...I miss the big nasty thump of a V-Twin!

Dang, that's pretty scarily accurate for my life so far anyway.

I ride an 04 Suzuki GS500F. I started on it and still ride it to work when the weather is nice. 55MPG ain't bad either

Even though I'm well into the "cruiser" age bracket, I think my next ride will be either an SV650 or a GSXR600.

I try and ride as much as I can, however, once it dips below freezing, I have to think twice. My last ride was New Years Day, and since then it has been too cold... Plus I am a little nervous about the potential of black ice.

I love this sexy bitch, but I'm nearing the end of my sportbike days...looking into getting a cruiser either this year or next.
