indiana peeps UNITE

anyone still around from central/ south central indiana?

Yep, I'm still here. You still riding that slow 'Busa :)

i'm still here. i was the fella with the purple mohawk on the ride from nashville to shoals last fall.

Im still in my livingroom

Poor slutty...and yes I'm still here too

Still in Naptown and ITCHIN to ride. Some off-season gearing changes will hopefully help me keep with the liters! Slutty..., we gotta tip back some soda pops again sometime soon.

so when's the first big ride of the year guys?

I'm going out tomorrow...not a big ride..but i'm going out.

I here and ready to go!!!! Starting to get a little stir crazy:scared

starting? you always were

:lol

something like the ride from little nashville last fall. that was pretty cool having about 20 or so crotch rockets hauling balls through the turns.

it would be a bit of a ride for you guys up in indy. but they'll be a bunch of guys from this area heading down to the little sturges bike rally on april 23rd. any body up for a day long ride?

We'll see....and personally I hate the reference "crotch rockets"....it's a sport bike man.

yeah, whatever. sport rocket. how's that?

damn you.....:)

where is little sturges?

South of big sturges....next to medium sturges....and to the left of oversized struges.... :dunno

Still here ;) getting ready to get another bike :D I'm thinking along the lines of a 929 or something. Crazy girl:p I'm not sure yet though. I've been riding a 929 and really like it. No probs handling it at all.... i may kill myself if i get one though. Anyways, anyone sees a good deal on just about anything, let me know... I've not decided what i want, so just keep your ears opened for me. Ready to get back on the street!! :riding I definately think a good Brown County trip should hold off for a little while... until we get a few good showers to rinse the sand and shit off the roads. But I can't wait!!! Hope to see you guys soon.

Hey SG, Dave and I were out today...you missed out hun. BTW, have you looked at that 02 red R1 for sale in Martinsville? Brand new on the show room floor...depending on your price range you could have that for close to the price of a 929 I'd think. Just a thought.

Hey Zach... I know you guys were out today. I asked Dave to take me for a ride, but he never called back :( Nope, I havent seen that r1... havent really looked at anything yet, still deciding on my price range. I'm not trying to put too much into a bike, looking at my poor GS :no Where is it? I'm sure its worth checking out! Plus, the new riding jacket Joe Rocket gave me is red :D Mike.... I am still planning on going to the track day. It sucks because its on the same day this lady wants me to model some of her female riding clothes and gear :( Oh well, I'm sure I'll be going to the track day instead. I'll take some pics for you guys. I'm sure I wont be taking a bike. It will be cool to check it out and hang out anyways. I am off work.

Being St. Patty's Day n' all, I really wasn't game for being on the roads after dark. Don't worry, sometime I'll show you the wrath of the R6..., because it's red, and we all know that's the fast one :yesnod !!!!

We might be out saturday afternoon if it's not crappy out. Dave may have some woman friend of his in town, I can put my rear pegs back on if you want to ride a bit. We can go to Martinsville to look at that R1 if you want. I'll PM ya.

[/B][/QUOTE] cool. should be a good day. i'm looking forward to it anyway. as long as it doesn't rain. i'm setting a 929 up for a track bike. i would have sold it about a month ago for cheap too. you'll have to get on the ball woman. see ya there saturday. sturges is south of henderson, ky. i'm about 2 1/2 hours south of indy and sturges is about 2 hours south of me. it would be a long ride. but it's a bike expo and kind of a rally. you're sure to get some shots of some fat harley chicks with there tits and guts hanging out. if nothing else it's all good for a laugh. we've got about 25 or 30 riders from here going down so far. most of them on cruisers but a hand full on crotch rockets... ur...uhhhhh... sorry sabn. crotch sports??? or was it sport crotches??? you know? the fast shiney things that you ride between you're legs. no, not the chrome dil... oops:finger

CJ: :2bitchsla

Maaaan..... I was looking for a new 02 red before I got the 04. Oh well! I am happy with what I have :yesnod I plan on getting out on Sunday with a couple other guys. Anyone else going to be out?

Originally posted by 2001FZ1 Yep, I'm still here. You still riding that slow 'Busa :) just sold it (:dollar ) . got a new 05 gsxr on order but will have a new R1 if it is not here by the first week of april. i need turbo power.

Originally posted by slutty What Who When Where How much :boobies + :beer = :epimp GodDamn was that night a good time even though Dave's girl never showed....Dave tell the guys what you remember about that night. Oh wait..that's right, I had to drive your drunk, passed out ass to the northside of Indy and take a cab back to downtown to get my car so I could go to bed at 6am so I could drive to Greenwood to get up at 9am.... Alas, it was a great night past that.... What: Night on the town, ladies, music, lots of beer.... Who: Me/Dave When: Last Sat Night Where: Indy How Much: Bout 300 out of my pocket...same for him....good times

Originally posted by Yamahamer where is he moving to? What's up Garrett..., yeah, I'm south bound, down to Montgomery, AL. Last day in Naptown is 4/1. I'll have to trade in Putnam for Road Atlanta, Barber, and Jennings..., oh, and 12 months of riding! :boobies New job, more money, couldn't pass it up. And yes, the R6 is back to new..., with some new bells and whistles, too. How's the ZX???

Sabian :2bitchsla DirtyDave

Congrats on the new gixer madcow. You decided to get something that stops:lol I look foward to checking it out next time I'm down south or maybe back out at IRP :thumbup

Dave Good luck with the new job. Enjoy the warm weather :hellobye

Originally posted by pbfaster Congrats on the new gixer madcow. You decided to get something that stops:lol I look foward to checking it out next time I'm down south or maybe back out at IRP :thumbup no kidding.. that is what was bugging me the most. i loved the bike but something lighter has to come. for sure at the track and for sure down south.

Originally posted by 2001FZ1 So are you going to get a turbo put on the new bike then? depends on what kits are out there for them and how strong the motors are. may go with a little spray but turbo is the way to go. so far the numbers are looking good for the gsxr so we will see. but if it is not here in the next 2-3 weeks i am picking up a new r1.

We should definately do something before u go! I'm going to miss u!!

Hey Mad what color did you order on your K5? I ordered black/silver and they told me 2-3 weeks still, but I got a call Fri and my dealer said it actually got bumped up to this Tues:rock so I will be getting mine Tues so if thats the color you went with you might get lucky and receive yours earlier :thumbup Will be the first black/silver owner out of Flatout, I cant sleep or anything because of being so hyped on getting it in so soon.

YOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO. Hey all, just saw this thread. I am for sure going to Putnam on Sat. Anyone else heading out there from somewhere near Fishers that has a spot for me on their trailer??? I have one on order, but not hear for another few weeks. Looking forward to hopefullly seeing everyone on Sat. morning. Cheers, Ryan

Just wanted to let you all know there is going to be group ride happening this weekend. Not sure of the details yet but if you check this site, they will all be there soon. http://www.yamahafz1oa.com/forum/showthread.php?s=&threadid=26901&perpage=50&pagenumber=9 If that doesn't work go to FZ1OA Message Board > FZ1 & Fazer Owners Association > Meetings, Events, Ride Reports & Photos > INDIANA RIDES home page of the forums: http://www.yamahafz1oa.com/forum/index.php?s= It is a long thread started last year, so you will have to start reading around page 9......look for today date in the posts......30 March. Once things are set, I will try to get back here and update this post. FYI, we normally meet in Nashville, IN or Bloomington and take off from there..........446, 135, 58, 45, 450, 150 and 43 are some of the roads we will most likely be on.

Thanks Joe, looking forward to meeting up again after the long winter. Track day for me at Putnam on Sat., but if the ride goes down on Sunday, I will be there.

cool...i will have to see what i'm doing sunday....

Looks like bad weather on Sat. and I dont want to drop another >$100 for Sunday so I will definitely see you all on Sunday. The rain may actually be good and clear off some of the road grime. Cheers,

you are still going to the track on sat though ryan?

Unless it is really nasty I will be there.

Well guys she finally got here: http://img59.exs.cx/img59/5760/gixxer053ne.th.jpg Sorry about the small shitty camera phone pic but best I had atm, I will get better this weekend but this bike is soooo F'n bad. The bike is so unbelievable, I mean I havent really got too crazy with it but the bike is a beast and yet soooo nimble. You get it in a corner and its begging you to get her down. I never rode on any other tires except the Dunlops that came on my 600 but these Bridgestones on it are killer. I did make a few quick bursts with it but nothing above 6500 rpms and Im telling you now this bike will pick the front end up in 3rd no problem or atleast it felt that way with the :butt dyno. This thing pulls and pulls and pulls no matter what gear you are in. Pro's: Shifting is flawless I mean u just slightly lift your boot and its in the next gear. You dont feel no click or anything half the time I have to check the gear indicator to even make sure I shifted its that nice. As was stated above power delivery and handling is a dream. Gear indicator is great as well havent tested the slipper clutch yet as Im in break in but soon enough I can tell you all about it. Con's: Welds on it as people have stated could be a little bit cleaner but they arent that bad. Windscreen and mirrors are garbage. I have no wind protection but I guess thats my fault at being 6'3 a new windscreen is on the way. Mirrors vibrate and are difficult to see out of they will be coming off this weekend. Last thing which isnt really a bad thing but is just taking some time to get used to is the tall first gear its like Im starting a WSBK race I have to rev the thing sort of high to get it going I will adjust the clutch lever like I did on my 600 so its a little tighter. All in all Im not dissappointed at all in this purchase, even though the R1 was first in line to this but went ahead with the Gixx. 2 days with it 200 miles down. Hopefully soon I can meet up with some of you for some :riding Be Safe!!!

You boys coming down to "The Ville" for Derby week riding? Hide

i go to IU here

[QUOTE]Originally posted by 2001FZ1 [B]Just wanted to let you all know there is going to be group ride happening this weekend. if you guys can post your route you'll be running, i may be able to make it. i'll try like hell anyway. i want to build a house in the next few years and i have a ton of stuff to do to this one to get it good to sell and make some :dollar. so i should really spend the day working on the hizzle. but hey, why do today what you can put off till later. right? if you guys are going to be running down 450 and in that area then i'll make it up there to ride and then cut off to the house and be able to get some work done that night. hook us up with the info. RYAN: this time tomorrow the 929 will be covered in Two Wheel Philanthropy stickers. : :rock :thumbup :rock :thumbup :rock :thumbup

Ok guys, how does this sound? Meet at the BP in NASHVILLE at 10:30am on Sunday 3rd. This shouldn't be too early for the Indy riders and it should be a little warmer by then too. Normal wait rules apply......wait 15min and leave. I thought we could stick to familar roads since its still early in the year and some of use might be a little rusty yet. How does this route look? Its 85 miles.

Looks great, thanks Joe! See you then. Looking forward to it. Ryan

yes the Kentucky Derby. Happens to draw a few thousand bikers too. The McCoys have came before Shane has told me but sometimes it interferes with their racing schedules. We have some interested rides along with the gawking at the girls downtown, parties, etc. We usually street race to the tune of a few thousand bikes and people BUT the usual coarse was blocked off a couple months after last year's derby thanks to some A-Hole ricer car drivers. Not sure were we will set them off this year. The 1/8m drag track has a real event on sunday, the day after those weaker horses run. Hide

sounds like the derby could be pretty cool. when is it. i'm game if i can make it.

mine is here as well. :riding

looks kick ass madcow!!!!!!!!!!!!!! who from Indy is going on the Sunday ride. I would like to go. Anyone interested in meeting up. i was actually down on those roads Wed

Hey argibson, where were you???? You guys missed out on nice day for some good riding. pbfaster, You should lead the group next time.....maybe I can learn a thing or two by watching. I know I was holding you up most of the time.

Joe, Sorry I couldnt make it, I am sure you all had a great day of riding. I ended up doing another day at Putnam...I am hooked. I improved so much, and was actually getting my knees down by the end of the weekend. I will for sure be on the next ride. Cheers, Ryan

congrats on the knees :beer

For those interested, derby is May 7 this year. The week leading up will be fun here especially if mother nature cooperates. The weekend of derby is usually bikes from all over. We used to street race but our primary location is closed so not sure what we'll do now. The track is an 1/8M event the day after the derby, rented by a bike club. They rent the whole thing so tons of venders set up and sell and cook. ya dont have to pay $4 for a crapburger. That'll get ya a slab of ribs instead. If mother nature holds out it'll be awesome. hide
