Not a bike guy but a customer asked me to tune this two:

That thing sounded mean! They were working on the exhaust, that Akaprovic thing is beautiful. It made 180rwhp on this dynojet.

180 to the tire on a bike is sick! That thing will be throttle happy for sure. The rush of power on a bike comes on different than a car... Oh how I love thee lol

Its actually a BMW 1000RR HP-4. And after seeing the reviews and riding one I want one bad. I believe I'm gonna get one. They handle like damn it. So comfortable and the launch/ traction control is just enough to get me in trouble lol.

I'll get another bike someday. I got tired of all the stupid drivers around here trying to kill me. Unfortunately i don't have any pictures of them. I've had a 99' R1, 2008 R1, and a 2008 ZX10. I would have to say the 99' had the best low end out of all of them. It was geared -2/+1 though

Got a hell of a deal on this 2012 Trek Superfly AL Elite frame and Fox shock, $400 for both! The rest I pieced together, raceface, answer, shimano XT stuff, Ritchey, Avid disc, WTB/Kenda

Only have about 40 miles on it, as I just finished it recently. But now that it's daylight longer after work, more ride sessions are about to begin! Anyone ride around the North/Central Florida area?

Got my 29er hardtail out on Sunday for a 22 mile ride with some friends. Trails are still a swampy mess here, so we hit the local paved trail. Was still fun, and felt good to get the legs back in action. Summer cannot get here fast enough. Can't wait for people to see me on the highway with this:

Had to order new tires for my motorcycle this morning. Back one has had a plug in it for over a year and no longer holding air. Was near the wear bar so wouldn't have passed inspection anyways. Went with Continental Conti Motion sport touring tires. Had been using the Shinko Ravens. Anyone have experience with the Continentals?

haven't tried with my 29er yet, but my 26" tire'd diamondback would fit in my trunk with the back seat behind the passenger folded down.

I'm not so sure this XL frame 29er will fit though.

Fit my hardtail 18" 29er in the trunk. Both seats down, front wheel off, seatpost UNTOUCHED. I couldn't believe it fit. The pedal kept getting caught so my friend helped me unload it. I am sure my 19" full suspension 26 would fit in there. I guess that means that officially I could carry two bikes. :)

2 bikes in/on a mustang, who needs a truck!?!

yea, my diamondback was a 18" front suspension 26. Front tire off, nothing else changed on bike, would only fold the passenger side back down. If I put the driver side rear down, I cant have my seat all the way back, stupid headrest.
