Thanks for the heads up, but I'm broke as hell....paying for the pending dooms day...errrr...I mean wedding...LOL....plus I trashed my buddy's Corvette and I have to pay for his burnt clutch...all I gotta say is this...never try to do a burn-out in a Corvette in first gear from a stand still...get it rolling in second and then power brake and ease out the clutch....this would have never happened with a Japanese or European sports car.

Ali, Corvettes came with independant rear suspension that hooks  up really well. I am supprised that all you broke. I remember teaching my wife how to drive a stick in my 85 celica convertible. She cooked my clutch too! 

I didnt see our pictures posted up from this weekend ride. Bummer!

Jarid, thanks for the post but I just came back from Hawaii and like Ali, am also broke as hell too!

All I know is that I dropped the clutch and the car wasn't even moving...3 seconds later the infamous clutch smell filled the cabin...ooooppps...btw, I checked flickr.com and our pix are not posted yet...I did see him snap couple of fotos of us...will keep you posted.

Kich,

our pix are up....bro...your headers hang dangerously low...you 'otta follow with your plans you described....either way the bike looks super rad...I knew you were a show off after all...LOL

 Hello, Kichi

Hawaii seems to have mostly harley riders. Oh well though. The only thing that is good is you can ride all year long in decent weather, but there are no long rides. 4 hours to ride around the island depending on traffic. Hope there are more from Hawaii.

I agree, I did see more harley riders on the island. Here is one that I saw in Haleiwa. The guy built it using a Buell motor.

Thanks Ali for posting the pictures up. That looks awsome! And if you were wondering, I wasnt giving the camera guy the finger!!!!  I was pointing number one!!   I agree, I would have done better slicing the canyons if I didnt have to worry so much about my dragging exhaust.  No worries, I will come up with a creative solution.

Hyung, the pictures were taken just west of the Rock Store on the same road.

As for the Harley in Hawaii, the bike was indeed a chain drive.  I seen them both with a chain and belt driven. I have even some warriors owners who have changed to a chain drive. I think it is to allow the use of a wider tire or for drag purposes. Personally, I hate lubing chains.

I can see i'll have to get your autograghs he he looked like you had a great time. RX on the clutch thingy you have to learn to do a burn out in a car, with your foot on the clutch not your hand,  sorry I had too.

Yup!!! foot not hand...LOL...I get it mixed up.....Kich is quite a celebrity now....they call him "Hangs LOW" because of his headers dragging in the turns....too bad I was in the front, I bet there was some sparkies...LOL...

Hangs low, he he that would be a good screen name kich... just kidding

On my way home from Las Vegas yesterday, I ran into a guy in Baker California named Joshua with his blue and silver warrior. I think it was an 07. He just recently pick it up with only 400 miles on it. As expected, his rear end was hurting from the long ride. He said that he was not a forum member yet and was from the Culver City area! Hey, thats Hyung and my neck of the woods. Anyways, thought I post up a picture of him and his bike in case he checks the SoCal North Club.

Johshua, post up or give me a shout if you need info to Bar Enterprises to reshape your seat ok.

cool.  with 3 here, we may have to do a bike night more local now!  will the santa clarita folks drive down? 

 I know I'm a ghost a lot of the time, but don't foget about me ;) I'm just down the street too. 

Me too! I'm up for a local bike night.
