Naw, just pics of the party I went to. I don't do much stopping when I'm traveling. If it was me, gas, beef jerky, and some water. With the wives we did a lot of long lunches, etc. I don't really have an eye for what makes a good pic. Some places are obvious but must not so much. I often see others trip pics and think, wow who would have thought to stop there and take a picture.

lol, I'm the same way when I'm on the bike. I ride by and think 'that would make a great photo' but never stop. I'm usually just happy to be out riding and don't want to get bogged down looking for photo ops.

Amen, I pass by more cool stuff cause I'm not taking the time to stop. Of course that's usually cause I'm on my way to a destination and just want to get there. Maybe one of these days I just need to take a two month trip with no destination in mind and take the time to stop and see the worlds largest snot ball.

Nice looking bike, but not good for the style of riding I do. I can't imagine 200 miles on it much less 2,000 miles.

In the past you could have had it done. Now-a-daze...it might be worth buying new, unless you get someone local to do the work....hmmmm, I'll have to look.

Finally got impatient and called Corbin. They will recover one of my old seats for half the price of buying one of their seats. Three to four week turn around time!

I actually sold my Corbin because of that. I found the "boys" were uncomfortable on the Corbin. The front where they build it up was the cause for pain, not the solution too. I prefer the Mustang and/or Ultimates over the Corbin.

After 10 years of riding with no incidents, it all ended last night.
Sitting at a red light, minding my own business on my 9, when this 82 year old guy slams into the back of the bike, and pushes me approx 50 feet through a busy intersection before the bike finally dumps. How nobody hit me coming the other way I'll never know. I actually didn't know how the accident happenned at all. I was sitting there when suddenly, to me, the bike just took off like a bat out of hell, with me hanging on for dear life trying to keep it rubber side down and under control with the bike swinging wildly underneath me. Finally I lost it and down it went, smacking my head pretty hard off of the pavement. Plenty of witnesses who got me out of the middle of the road, and it was only then that I learned what happenned, the guy not only hit me, he was literally pushing me and the bike down the road in front of him. I I had gone down right away he would have just crushed me, just run right over the top of me. : I had my head gear on, or I'd be gone. I had a heavy leather motorcycle jacket on, and motorcycle pants which save me from some serious road rash. I had on heavy leather motorcycle boots, with steel toes. At some point my leg must have been trapped under the bike because on my right boot toe the leather is completely gone, and about half of the steel, just ground right away. If that had been my foot in sneakers, I probably wouldn't have a foot right now. End of the story, much confusion, police, ambulances, back boad, neck brace, clothes being cut off, iv. drips, x rays, yada yada yada. I'm banged up, my shoulder and left thumb are screwed up, but they've sent me home and it could have been so much worse. Guys, even if you don't have to wear it, wear your gear. |

Check out Mean City Cycles. I had my seat foam replaced with the memory foam/impact gel. I've since ridden it cross country with NO problems. I could barely last 30 minutes on the stock seat, now 8-10 hours is nothing. |
