| Training Wheels Joined: Oct 2008 From: Winston, Oregon | Hey, all. First, I can't believe there's only 1 post to this thread. Yea, there HAS to be lots of riders in Pasadena...I mean Roseburg (just LOOKS like Pasadena to me). I'm one of those old farts that has more bikes than $$$. I ride a '04 GSXR 1000, a '01 R6, a '01 DR650, a '07 CFR450R (new to me), a 1983 Honda 650 Nighthawk on holidays & parade night and am turning a Ninja 650 into Streetfighter style. Also Vintage '75 Honda 250 Elsinore that I bought new, a '68 Honda 90 and a '70 Hodaka Ace 100 which needs resto. Love the twisties, Douglas Co. has some GREAT riding street & dirt. I have 16 acres in Winston and love the country. Sure beats the So. Cal. city life!! So, YEA, where are all you riders??? Ponderosacycles@hughes.net Patrick |

| Training Wheels Joined: Oct 2008 From: Winston, Oregon | Hey, Cascaderider. Yeah, we should do a ride. I'm up for Sunday 10-12 anytime. Cold, but I can layer up. Last year at SBNW in Stevens WA., I rode an Aprilia RSV Mile' 1000. HOLY S--T!! Going through a set of turns at 5 mph faster than on my GSXR1000, and that was the first time I had ever even seen the bike. Rode a Falco in Monterey at the Superbikes race in 2004 & was very impressed with the ergos. I WANT A MILE !!! |

I have not ridden a Mille but would like to. The ergos are great on the Falco; even more comfortable with risers like I have, though I may stick the factory clip-ons back on this winter just to see how they feel. There's a nice Mille for sale in Grants Pass, on consignment. See AutoManiaGP.com. | |

| Training Wheels Joined: Oct 2008 From: Winston, Oregon | Hey, all. I took a ride last Sunday to Shady Cove out Tiller-Trail Hwy. Sunny, but chilly. I'm willing to meet anywhere nearby with cascaderider & the good Drmedak and any others for a ride IF it don't rain. Coast or inland. I'll check this tread more often. Funny how most riders my age are on cruisers and just how few miles they put on. I went 162 miles Sunday and stopped at Johny's after to find 4 cruiserbikes with a total of 22 miles between them. Who rides and who poses???? |

 I'm all in as well. Tell your friends to hit RoseburgRiders.com-- it jumps you to this sub-forum. Tiller Trail Hwy is a beautiful run! I rode it for the first time (coming back from Medford) this summer! Shady Cove was a great-looking place. Were you on your Gixxer? | |

| Training Wheels Joined: Oct 2008 From: Winston, Oregon | Yeah, I was on my '04 GSXR 1000, black/silver. Only mods are the Marchesini forged mag wheels, Gold to match forks & calipers. I ride that road several times a year, lots of fun curves. SC is a cool town, BUT be cool. The cops are watching. I run the river on my Tahiti every year, too. FUN!!! |

| Newbie Joined: Oct 2008 From: Roseburg, OR | PDCycles... it is awesome. 60+ HP at the wheel, 245lbs wet 220's without fluids... it is quick up until about 100... best dual sport/enduro/supermotard on the market PERIOD. and for $4100 someone will enjoy it... I am looking for something to do some sport touring. I have looked at everything from the Ducati's to Gsxr's to Aprilia's... mostly looking for trade until it sells... I am looking for a literbike, or like a 900ss, etc... the DR is great for mostly long dirt rides, and may actually be as good as the XR in that category, but for anything under 100 miles on Dirt or street I would go for another Husaberg.... I am looking for a 200 plus mile a day bike otherwise I would be keeping it. |

At least it didn't get flagged!I'm riding to work tomorrow... does that count? And I did ride to Jacksonville yesterday to pick up my iPhone. I saw a SuperDuke in Medford yesterday on my way back through. I hit rain on the way back too. Not enough to make it worth my while... maybe next time.. |

| Training Wheels Joined: Oct 2008 From: Winston, Oregon | Hey, Russ, that PC does look very comfortable. Thats why I like my Bandit 1200 for longer rides and passengers. Nice seat, upright position, knees not in knots (not that I mind that on the GSXR). Can't help move this wknd, but I almost envy your folks. In a m-home, you can go where & when you like, follow the sun. But you NEED a bike on the back of it! Have fun. |

my dad just dosn't feel comfortable on the bike (he's always had cruisers) and the seat on this is a little tall, handlebars don't feel right for him, ect... hopefully he will pick up another bike before too long. I will probably ride it for commuting this winter, and use it to teach my girlfriend how to ride (unless I sell it/trade it for something for her) | |

| Newbie Joined: Oct 2008 From: Roseburg, Oregon | Just picked up your post on craigslist, I'm riding a '99 Honda Shadow 600 because the wife wanted to ride with...but my heart really lusts for a sport bike! Sold my project '84 Honda Interceptor to my brother who got it running in a week, whatever. Had my endorsement for almost 10 years before finally getting my bike so I'm pretty stoked. Mostly ride to work because that's when I get the chance to, what with kids soccer practices and wife working and all that other nonsense. But I would like to get out more for sure. |
