Got some new boots today. Now dad can have his Tech 8's back.:mrgreen: Still need to get a truck that's legal to drive though.

 

[OTHGbronco82]

She runs! As soon as the truck is registered I'm going riding.:mrgreen:

Congrats man, and I missed the boots. Nothing touches Sidis for comfort IMHO, and I've had Astars and Gaerne, etc.

I tried on the Gaerne SG12's but they had a real bad pressure point above my ankle and the tech 10's were just a tad to stiff out of the box. With the crossfire's they were already really comfortable and they aren't even broken in yet.

I,m on my 2nd pair of Forma Predator boots now , and i must say i,m loving em
I like the Sidi,s but the price of em in Australia is ridiculous were as i,m getting the Formas for much much cheaper .

Just fired up my old ZXR and took it for a run ( 1st time in about 3 months )
I was a good boy for about 20 minutes then the front wheel started leaving the ground:roll:
I,m gonna put it back in the rumpus room now before my licence highsides itself to death

I got 10% off my total. So, Crossfire 2 SRS's, a lens, and some tearoff's was just over $600 after tax. The boots themselves were like $525- ish.

Finally got out to do some riding. Forgive my crappy riding. It's been about a year since I last rode. Now have a legal truck too so I can go riding and not have to rent a truck.:roll:

HA. You should see the video of me and my quad on the track, i even stall the damm thing half way thru :lmao:
I guess thats the price for beeing stuck in #3 gear
#3 was all i had the stamina for, #3 gear and 2 laps was all i was able to do before my tounge got too close to the chain and my face turned purple, and not forgetting the lack of guts )

Found out i was better at stunting the thing, nice and easy in #1 gear for the most.

Maybe 40 was too old to turn dirteating petrolhead

I'd love to go ride that track, very little penalty for coming up short for us old guys. :mrgreen:

 

[OTHGbronco82]

I came up short on the triple in the middle of the track and it wasn't to bad. Still kinda hurt though.

The human body seems to lose its ability to bounce as it gets old

Gotta love the sound of a 125 two stroke"thumbsup"

Doesn,t matter what pipe and muffler you put on them , the little YZ,s are just a great bike to ride on the pipe "thumbsup"

But, aftermarket pipes sound better than the stock. So it goes from awesome to holy crap I need new undies.

 

[hpiguy]

Agreed on the 304 shorties, they just sound soooo right!

Got a new bike today. 2016 Yamaha FZ-07. :mrgreen:

Yeah, I just got back from my first ride. It was short since I don't have my licence or insurance yet, but I can definitely tell it's going to be fun. It has so much engine braking and torque though.:shock:
