Hi, I'm a newbie :wave

Name is Leon, live in Irving(Las Colinas) Texas and am planning on taking a class then getting a R6.


Its only recently I've thought about getting a bike, never accrued to me before, but 2 of my best friends ride. One has a 03 R6 and the other a 03 R1(that got stolen :'( ) but anyways on a trip down to Austin one weekend there were 10 guys on bikes and me in the car carrying the luggage and I now I have this huge passionate urge to join the crew.

Anyone here from Dallas or Irving?

 

[RSixxr]

what up??? GET ONE!!! I was in your shoes for a while. All my boys rode and I was still in a car. You'll have that itch forever until you give in and scratch it. And the R6 is the only way to go.

 

[yoda]

Welcome!
I am in Plano, so basically, yeah, we are in the same town! LOL

You can't beat the R6. I have alot of buddies that do the bike nights around here, and tons that rode all the time. I thought I was doing good in my big jeep, with the top off, BUT...they proved me soooo wrong! Nothing beats the feel of raw power, the looks, the chicks and let me tell ya...DFW is a good place to be on a bike!!! That is, if you are liking the "attention" and social scene...

whats up Leon! I say go for it. Take the course, repsect the bike and its ability and have a frickin blast! And pick up some chics for me and when you hit it, donkey punch her and tell her Penfold said it was ok to do!

 

[cdemon]

welcome!

i keep hearing about bikes being stolen. how? does the lock on the handle bar not doing anything? you would really have to yank that shit apart to make it driveable.

 

[penfold]

you just pick it up with a buddy and throw it in the back of your truck. steering lock defeated. disc lock defeated. parted out and sold on fleabay. done deal.

 

[cdemon]

i guess... damn ebay!

man u are a mean bastard.

WELCOME leon, i live in tyler but plan on headin that direction ever so often to ride with quite a few guys. i think theres like 10 or so people on this forum from the DFW area. :cheers

 

[Sexualwasabi]

cool cool thx all for the welcome well I'm sure it will be a bit before I ride with any of yall or my friends in the streets, definatly will take my time with it

yeah I gotta make a budget now for gear etc etc... then the question will be Blue or Silver leaning on Silver right now

 

[bravo6]

wassup, im a newbie to the forum too! blue all the way :cheers

 

[drhodes]

Welcome, yeah get the blue. It will make mine and others Silvers just that more special! :hump

Listen to most of these guys, they have good advise. Another tip, easy on the throttle, its touchy if you buy new!

 

[vtlion]

Yeah, get blue. They put some kind of pheramone addative in the blue paint it to make it attract more chicks

:cheers :hump

Well been calling around lately and come to find out the Sliver with the Flames was a limited edition color and Yamaha only gives to the dealers a certian amount a year :'(

But my 2nd choice Blue is still sexy

just faxed over my app..... ^_^ going over to Central Yamaha in Plano saturday with a buddy of mine that has been riding for 10+ years(currently has the blue 03) to ride it back for me. (Ain't getting on no damn Highway just yet

ooooo damn it I wish it was friday already!

 

[Ed]

they only give a certain number of silvers to dealers? man, all the dealerships I went to had nothing but silvers. It took me a while to get the blue...

there's a place up in LA that specializes in customizing bikes -- chroming everything, painting it a different color, etc.

it's too bad you live in texas...

well at least it's not as bad as NY or CT where you can't ride all year round...

 

[asuh]

Hey Ed,

Where is this place in LA that does all the customizing. I'm from Calabasas, about a 30 min drive to the city. Thanks.

 

[dj1298]

Welcome to the site! Glad you like it. :boob

Asuh, if you live in calabasas, then you're really close to the place.

The place is called Ryde or Die (formerly Ruff Ryders).

6734 Reseda Blvd, Unit 6&7
Reseda, CA 91335

818 345-0685

If you want to take a look at some of their work, take a look at the latest issue of Super streetbike magazine. I think they also customized some of the bikes for that god-awful movie, Biker Boyz.

Hey now, I live in CT.........

oh, who am I fooling? it does suck.........
