  1. My idea of playing in the dirt involves sideways at speed. I am helping an Ohio rider, there are plenty of flat track races in Ohio. Here is the first schedule out for the 2019;season. There are like 30 races on the schedule as of now:
  2. The S model has wheelie control in the electronics package. How awesome is that!
  3. Welcome. You named a few of my favorite local roads. Head down Tappan way and try 646 to Wintersville. You can thank me later.
  4. Finally gave up trying to adapt to the bars on the Tiger 800. Put bars from a Tiger Explorer on. Just a bit higher and more sweep. So that was the project for yesterday. Felt better on the shoulders and elbows after a brief test.
  5. If you get interested in dirt track.......got a couple of Bultaco Astro's that are begging for attention. And I likely could get a 750 Triumph out of retirement from someone local.
  6. The Heritage Arms guns are bottom feeders. You get what you pay for. As far as teaching a kid to use a revolver as a first gun.....I am all for that plan. A revolver forces them to learn to shoot. Once they learn to handle a revolver, if they want to move on to a semi, great. Yes you will pay more for a better brand revolver in 22 than the Heritage Arms guns, but in the long run, it is worth the money
  7. No key, no problem.....jumper wire will work i used a jumper wire on the 441 I rode in the U.K. and IoM for about half of the 10 days I was there. Key was still there, the internal contacts, not so much

    hey folks

    Yikes Kevin......a stone crush in' Norton. I had one similar, even color. Handled great, but I just could never could come to terms with it. You ride the Buelll to lunch......I will ride the Tiger.....only fair. And here I was planning to ride the Gold Star. we need to toast Ben.

    hey folks

    Hello kevin. You killed the Trident? Guess those parts you shed last fall was a warning. we need to plan a fall ride/lunch again.

    2.1 miles.

    Brings a new meaning to "reach out and touch someone"
  11. I plan on tearing up a few roads around Stone Creek shortly.........on one of my vintage rides.....
  12. Sherrodsville? There goes the 'hood. Definitely plenty of deer and trucks around there to have unnatural interaction with them. Welcome.
  13. Today - New Tires.....yea! And new front brake pads.
  14. Since .45 is more than just ACP........here is a counter view. Go for a wheel gun in .45 Colt. Ruger offers the RedHawks in 45ACP/45 Colt convertible, Blackhawks as well. S&W offers wheel guns in 45 Colt. 45 Colt can range from mild "cowboy" loads to some serious heavy hunting loads. Just make sure you have a wheel gun made for the heavy loads. IME 45 Colt is an accurate hard hitting round even with factory loads. If you have a convertible like the RedHawks, you can shoot 2 different calibers. Try it, you may be surprised......
  15. Another one from Friday. The horses were not all that impressed
  16. I have been traveling for work WAY too much, my bike time has suffered. Was in Dallas all week, got home around 3 on Friday. It was just too nice of a day not to get a ride in. So spent some time on assorted roads of T-County. Even found time for a picture or 2. Damn what a nice ride
  17. Nice, another Tiger rider. Sweet engine and trans. Check CJ Designs for a rear rack. Most anything can be put on that rack.
  18. May be venturing that way today on one of the vintage rides. Friend from Athens is here, we are invited to cook out from the Norton Owners Club.....so this an excuse to enjoy local roads again.
  19. Hmmmm, could it be us locals keep it quiet to keep traffic down? Once you have ridden to Stillwater on 258, work your way over to Tappan Lake ( preferably using Moravian Trail Road off 800) and try 646 from Tappn Lake to Wintersville. You can thank me later
  20. Only if you hate everyone equally. Works for me.....
  21. Try Brew Kettle White Rajah....it smells great, it is a flavor explosion when you drink it. I don't find it bitter at all. White Rajah is easily my favorite IPA and maybe one of my favorite beers. And I usually go for porters, stouts and just plain pale ales. Buy a six pack, if you don't like it, send me the rest of the six pack for proper and safe disposal
