Whoa, got stormed by KTM's tonight. WTF. First started out with Juan wanting to come over and do his first service. Then Cliff and Bob showed up. I gave them wrong directions thinking wouldn't find it but drat, they got here. I said right, but meant left. Whoops.  Whoa, workin motorcycles, pres butan it go.  Wheres this cuppy thing go? FYI, if you use repsol you don't need that cuppy thing, you're just lucky I had one.  WHERE DA WHEELS GO??? WTF.  Who cares about the wheels. WE FOUND WHERE THE CUPPY THING GOES!!!  Gary shows up on his KTM we all stand around and watch Juan work on his bike while laughing.  Here's the KTM guys all hanging out and me going "Whoa, lot's of KTM's let's hope they don't drop parts everywhere".  KTM'S EVERYWHERE!!!!!  Now they are gearing up to leave, Juan is washing his stuff. They're like "later dude". No parts were left, but Cliff had to lock tight some stuff before leaving at Bob's request.  It's a very clean KTM.  Ok this. THIS. See how he's not looking at backing up but at the yard?? Yeah.  Here they are leaving in a blur.   BECAUSE THIS IS MY YARD!!!!! THANKS CLIFF!!!  Good times :up :up Thanks for stopping by guys, always fun rapping and hanging out with you all.

Simulated Motocyclist Hitting Highway Guardrail At 60 km/h Motorist Swerves To Hit Motorcycle  Upon further review it looks as if the car is trying to overtake the vehicle ahead. The buy in the bike seems to be at fault. bung fucked around with this message at 20:59 on Aug 24, 2008 |

He might have others. Does a lot of his own work on bikes, such as putting on the exhaust on his KTM. He's also loving hilarious/awesome guy all around. He's just made it work. I guess there was a group ride some time ago and Bob was on it, some newer guys were talking to an older veteran rider and asking the same question, "How is he going to ride... will he be able to keep up?" the veteran replied "Guys, don't worry about him keeping up, you just try to keep up with him". By the end of the ride they were like "Respect." hehe. Bob's loving awesome.

I meant no disrespect, I just did a double take looking through the photos and was like "aw hell naw dat boy ain't putting on a jacket on and going out 12 o'clocking his essemm" Does he have raised bars on his bikes? or does he maintain a full tuck always?

Oh yeah I didn't figure any disrespect intended. Mostly leans forward a lot, I think the only thing he's really done is a throttle thing. He's only got 2 fingers on each arm, so it's to make it easier for to grip/twist. Trips that he's done so far have been Laguna Seca for MotoGP/Pac 1 on the R6 with a couple of friends. He actually has a DR650 too I forgot to add that one. On that he went down to Copper Canyon in Mexico(one of my dream trips fyi) with some buddies of ours. Bob's the man.

Hey guys, I recently got a bunch of scans of old photos from my dad and there are a few of his old bikes pictured but he can't remember what they are. Can anyone ID these? The first looks like a 2 cylinder Honda but the second I have no clue.

I've never been able to equate the sound of the Triumph RocketIII with an aftermarket pipe to any other combustion engined vehicle. Now I can. It sounds very similar to the CBX in the first video below. Honda CBX1000 Supersport. Pipemaster Exhaust. Triumph Rocket III and Zard Exhaust More >4 cylinder goodness.

Z3n, why not think about an Aprilia Falco? It's pretty much an early RSV with a half fairing and a cheaper swingarm - everyone I've met who's riden one raves about it.
