Around 44,000 miles. Doesn't run. Blown head gasket so coolant is in the oil reservoir. It's due a Desmo too but many owners have done it themselves as far as valves, plugs and belts. If anyone wants a project and likes to wrench send me a PM. I'm thinking $250O? As is.

Hi I've been lurking here for awhile always wanted to do my first track day at Thunderhill and meet some new people who may enjoy touring.  Used to be lots of good info here with seemed like a good following.  Hope you guys can get a meetup going this spring and maybe some planned rides.  I used to ride a Ducati 848 but have gone more comfortable with an Aprilia Tuono V4 RR as started doing 2500 mile trips each year.  At 52 have quite a few miles in but don't have the skills to be a track demon.  Maybe facebook is a better way to get the momentum going again?

Seems web based forums are loosing interest over other mobile aps.  There is a lot of good info in these posts over the years, but with lack of new participation little keep the community ongoing.  I've been doing more cycling miles than riding lately.  I did install new tires on the VFR recently so will give it some attention this summer.  Did a VC lunch run to test the tires, the pirelli diablo rosso are best turning tire I've had yet, hopefully that will help spark my interest in a few rides this year.

Poor SSA forum.  It's been a while since I've given it any TLC.  There's been a good reason for that, but I'll wait until I've made more changes before saying much more.

Yes, this is the Sierra Sportbike Association.  And yes, the site looks very different.  This is about as close to the Mystic Jade theme we had before as I can find.  It's not perfect, but you should have seen the other  :|) themes I went through before finding this one. 

You should find that all historic posts are still here going back to forum inception, so hopefully little else has changed in ease of use.

More changes to come.  Stay tuned and feel free to post what you've been up to before we get into the 2023 riding season. 

A Forum's lifeblood is user interaction, because it's contagious.  The more people post, the more other people will feel encouraged to post.

Welcome to 2023, SSA!

That's an awesome Idea G-Money.   maybe you could actually eat a decent meal on your ride other than a dry ass oat bar.    :pieface

General Discussion / Bike mechanic for TMCC
Last post by Vegasrider - July 06, 2022, 10:20:05 AM
If anyone is interested in a small part time gig fixing and maintaining training bikes for the college let me know. About 18 bikes, mostly Suzuki TU 250s and a few Honda 300 Rebels. Primarily fixing or replacing leaking fork seals, changing tires and batteries. Some cosmetic replacements if the bike experiences a major crash. Could be a couple of weeks without repairs or might have to fix a bike or 2 every week. Just depends, fix on your own schedule as long it's fixed before the next class.

There was a lot of interest this Spring, but then after a couple of accidents at the track, we're down two of our main riders.

But it's good to see enthusiasm for group riding, dmh.  After I get done with my IBA ride on Sunday, I'll have time to dedicate to putting together an abbreviated schedule.
