My thought progression was "Ok, I guess if you work on the bike a bunch and are tuning...how the gently caress are you supposed to get your hands in there....oh goddamnit!"

A few 70 degree days in a row mean the mountains are ice free. So I drove through a canyon and up a mountain to buy Mass Effect 3.

I saw a stock one last Saturday. It was an older guy riding it though which may explain it.

Linedance posted:the Type R Integra of motorcycles? No, that would be the 50th anniversary edition Yamaha R1 and R6. Amazingly beautiful but every single one I find on craigslist has either been downed or has a reconstructed title. Every once in a while you see a clean one but they get snapped up pretty quick.

It's just that it's a decent bike that looks interesting, and the platform allows for easy modifications in all sorts of directions. (Mine isn't stock either, but I haven't touched the paint and there's no chrome...)

Is this seriously the whole engine for that thing? And it carries three people, a big squishy driver's seat, and all that canopy stuff? Riding it must be...underwhelming.

Dellikose posted:High Pucker Factor It has always seemed to me that carving up a highly publicized and highly trafficked road where thousands of other people go every day to do the same thing is, well, lame. It's such a famous and popular stretch of road that there's at least one guy who makes his living doing nothing but taking photos of all the riders going by one after another. And some people apparently ride the same route every day, religiously. What's the appeal? Where's the adventure in all of that? Maybe I just like the exploration aspect of riding/driving -- going places that I've never been before and discovering new things. Mulholland Highway just seems to me like the Disneyworld of motorcycling.

It would be fun when the road is new to you, but I would think it would become increasingly aggravating the more you had to deal with it. Most people probably just love the attention from the onlookers.

Mulholland Highway just seems to me like the Disneyworld of motorcycling. Yeah, you have a way different perspective than at least I do when it comes to a road like that. Sure, exploring new roads and having an adventure-style ride is awesome, don't get me wrong, but the appeal of the Snake is that it's basically a race course on public roads. You get this twisty, technical bit of road that you can practice over and over to get really good at. The satisfaction comes from technical mastery of the road and your motorcycle, and there's plenty of excitement in nailing a set of twisties perfectly as there is in adventure style riding. I mean, it's kind of the same reason racing is addictive. You could apply your same logic to a racetrack - a predictable set of turns thousands of people have ridden on before. That's the kind of conditions you need to really ride on the limit on any given stretch of road or track. The Disney World of motorcycling is more like the street in front of a biker bar or Daytona Bike Week or something, where there's no skill involved and 100% about aesthetics and image.

In all seriousness I REALLY want to ride the midwest but getting time off right now isn't happening. I'm saving my off time for an Alaska ride. On that note is anyone interested in hearing about my stupidly simple storage solution for the DRZ? I managed to add 50+ liters of soft storage to my bike that can be removed in under 30 seconds and adds no mounting weight... It's a really stupidly simple set up.
