Author Topic: Any Bikers in Texas Chris Medley Expert Film Handler Posts: 180 From: McKinney, TX, USA Registered: Jan 2004 posted 03-09-2004 02:51 PM                        I have been tossing aroung the idea of joining a local chapter for a while, but as you know our schedules are not the same as many others. I wanted to know if any of you in the North Texas area were into motorcycles and if so did you know of any chapters that fit our schedules. Some friends and I were tossing around the idea of just starting our own informal group that fit our hectic theater schedueles and I wanted to know if anyone else was interested.  |  IP: Logged Chris Hipp Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1462 From: Mesquite, Tx (east of Dallas) Registered: Jul 2003 posted 03-09-2004 04:25 PM                     Check out this thread There are a few on here.

No not really. Actually I have the lates Film-Tech prototype, Anal Guard! So, that isnt a problem for me.  |  IP: Logged Phil Hill I love my cootie bug Posts: 7595 From: Hollywood, CA USA Registered: Mar 2000 posted 03-09-2004 11:11 PM                  Ummmm... so Chris, are you saying that film-guard is a good lube for "other" things than film?

Stop it! Must go skiin' or sleddin'... snow is good.  |  IP: Logged Phil Hill I love my cootie bug Posts: 7595 From: Hollywood, CA USA Registered: Mar 2000 posted 03-10-2004 03:10 AM                  45? Holy sh!t! It was 95 here today! Many cute guys and gals riding around in convertibles and on bikes (motor hertz)! My tongue got hard just "looking" at the scenery... Hubba Hubba! Josh: Ya REALLY gotta move to somewhere where ya can ride ALL the time! Daryl: I'm starting to agree with you, Chris, Josh, and Jason... me thinks I need to get another bike. Hmmm...what should I get?

Posts: 4247 From: Bloomington, IN, USA Registered: Feb 2002 posted 03-10-2004 08:39 AM                     I am not a Texas Biker. I saw this really cool-looking bike on the weekend. It looked like a Harley and a Vespa had fallen in love and had a child. It wasn't a Vespa but it was Italian. The thing looked like it belonged in the next "Batman" movie. Gorgeous!  |  IP: Logged Jason Black Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1723 From: Myrtle Beach, SC, USA Registered: Nov 2000 posted 03-10-2004 08:43 AM                        Chris, I'm not into 'Zuki's that much.. but I thought the new 750's were FI? Phil... For someone getting back into bikes.. I'd look at the Honda 919.. or possibly a Yamaha Road Star Warrior. I think you'd be more comfortable lugging all teh 'stuff' from your 'dungeon' around on a cruier/sporttourer type bike, rather than a 'crotch rocket'. If that's what you want.. look no further than Honda's CBR 954RR or Yamaha's R1. BTW, I think these guys are from Texas... Texas club  |  IP: Logged Chris Medley Expert Film Handler Posts: 180 From: McKinney, TX, USA Registered: Jan 2004 posted 03-10-2004 09:40 AM                        Phil...I think you should try this one  |  IP: Logged Chris Hipp Phenomenal Film Handler Posts: 1462 From: Mesquite, Tx (east of Dallas) Registered: Jul 2003 posted 03-10-2004 10:49 AM                     Jason, I was talking about my cb750. You are correct the new GSXRs are fuel injected.  |  IP: Logged Josh Jones Redhat Posts: 1207 From: Plano, TX Registered: Apr 2000 posted 03-10-2004 09:41 PM                        for that most of the new supersport bikes are FI. most if not all in the AMA supersport catagory are. Daryl, I didnt know you had a bike Josh PS it did snow today. Someone should tell those bastards up there to quit sending this shit our way  |  IP: Logged Daryl C. W.

For the whole four months a year of suitable riding weather, in Midland, I had a hard time justifying the $1000 / year insurance.  |  IP: Logged
