We were at Southern California Motorcycles in Brea last weekend for their annual open house. Anytime you mix in a bunch of riders with free food, demo rides, bike show, and raffle drawings you know it's going to be fun, and it was.
We had a great turn out, had a bunch of people stopping by to check us out, and I had a great time. I even got away for a bit to demo ride a Triumph Speed Triple!
Thanks to all the guys at So Cal Motorcycles for the fun filled day!
We've got a new install video up on YouTube, this time, it's on a 2006 Ducati Monster 620. I picked up the bike earlier this year and, man, what a great bike it is! Super fun to ride and manueverable. Looking forward to spending lot of time on it!
The editors at Super Streetbike Magazine came to us at the Indy Show last month and said that they wanted to get the TPX installed on their brand new Ducati 848. They probably figured that they'll have a hard time going slow on that bike and wanted something to cover their butt. So last Friday, I rode over to their office to help them install the TPX on the 848.
The install was fairly straight forward on the 848. We removed the panels on the left side of the bike to access the battery and hid the excess wiring within the fairing.
The bike looked great with the TPX on it, and we'll see what Super Streetbike has to say about the TPX soon!
We were at Daytona Bike Week a couple of weeks ago for some sun, fun, and a lot of bike racing. The place was packed all week and it kept us busy.
Fortunately, I was able to sneak away to demo ride a few bikes. I rode the Spyder, which initially didn't think that I would like much, but I was wrong. I didn't think a three wheeler could be as fun as a two wheeler, but it came close. The next bike that I rode was a Buell Lightening. The Lightening was probably one of the most comfortable bikes that I've ever been on, and now I will seriously consider it for my next bike. The last bike that I demoed was Kawasaki's ZX-6... wow! What a great bike! The bike's got ample power, super maneuverable, and fun! It was, by far, the funnest bike that I've been on since the R6 that I had back in the day.
All and all, it was a tiring but exciting week. Looking forward to the next bike week!
