What do u ride?

now - a 2004 SVS.. >_< it's such a slow bike on the road. i'm hoping it feels faster in the mountains. I haven't been to any canyon runs in like 6 years.

Haha dude I've been riding or going across Ortega since before I could even drive. Does not scare me. GMR is fun and so is Palomar.

I used to like GMR, but there's just nothing like palomar. I still remember every turn on that mountain.

that was me following some of my buds down at palomar .. the R1 and the GSXR1ks were NEW then.. >_<

and yeah, i was recording it on a actual dig camcorder, mounted to the top of my tank.. no go-pros back then..

ortega's .. sketchy. i started riding there and hated the road. the surface isn't very grippy.. >_< it's like GMR, but with more traffic.

let's do Palomar sometime..

palomar is awesome but its a all day thing

i used to go down to palomar saturday, ride from 7-noon, come back up to HB, and then do it again on sunday.. >_<

gas was cheap back then though.

After not riding for a few years, I feel like I'm starting all over again. I used to live in carbon canyon, and would ride my bike daily. So every day was a canyon ride. I used to get real low.

My new bike has a "commuter" tire on the rear so I'm kinda sketch about trying to hit the corners hard. I used to run the Bridgestone Battlax BT016, which I liked a lot. They were real sticky. My bike now has a Battlax BT022 or something like that. Supposed to be harder rubber in the center, and softer on the sides. I just put a new chain and sprockets on the bike, and went up 2 teeth in the rear. Super fun to ride.

I got the sv as a commute bike from long beach to Santa Monica. I'm ashamed whenever I look at my tires.

When I had my gsxr and the r1, the chicken stripes on the side would be completely gone, and the center would still have them after 1k miles...

Easy fix. Don't go down. Lol

[oredith]

Yeah. The few times I wheelie on accident have been on the track, and they almost always result in a tank slapper. No thanks.

[SchnitzelReef]

The company's name is chem-tainer industries. They're located in Compton. I talked to the guy, and he said to call and talk to the salesmen. And that they will usually let u order direct from them. He said containers like mine are normally in stock. Or they will build it within a few days. He said to check prices with plastic-mart.com and tank depot.com because sometimes they might have cheaper prices. And like on my 65g tank, I didn't have to pay taxes because I ordered it through platicmart. Any just. Just thought I would pass on that info
