Smash together? No way. Not even close. In fact, I've never been more spread out than on the N Run I did with these guys. And theres ALWAYS someone crashing on those stupid TSB rides. We hear about the bleedover all the time over here. Really, just about every ride someone goes down with you people.

 

back on topic.

like what ??? said. replace the clutch cable and make sure its adjusted right.
and start lubing the ends of it to keep rust away.
what do you guys use for lubing the clutch cable? wd40? dab of motor oil?

would it be ok to use gun oil ( rem-oil, weapon shield?)

 

no response to this because you know i'm right..


everyone buys a bike and is like yay i'm going to go hang out with other bike guys and be cool doing bike things. after a few years of owning and riding bikes, that shit is gay. i don't need more friends, i don't need gay new bike guys headaches in my life. so keep your squidy fag rides with random other people from the internet if you need it to feel cool.


i do not.

 

and you did the right thing by coming back here.

replace the cable and it will save you the headache, trust me.

 

i have chain and cable lube that has molloy(sp) like shit in it, plus it foams up to help it get into places.



i'd use that, if i ever did mine lol. but my bike doesn't sit outside, and i only have like 12k miles on it, so i've never had to touch the clutch cable adjustment other than when i first got it. and it feels smooth, so i havent done it yet.

prob should some time thou,

 

thats the tool

 

I swear you act like you don't even know the meaning of a squid. you insert it into any place you can and think "oh i'm cool cuz I don't ride with other people so that make everyone who rides in a group a squid". You make no sense, the only reason i come on here is to blow off steam by arguing with abunch of retards. Of course there will be riders down on a website that has over 4,000 members, and you can't act like you haven't gone down. It's a fact of riding a motorcycle. lol at all you fuckheads, keep entertaining me with your post

 

Over 4000 squids. And you wonder why they say motorcycling is so dangerous.

 

might be 4000 members, but how many go on the northrun rides at a time. 20? 1 crash out of 20 people almost every time = some fail ass shit i want nothing to do with. our north run is so god damn fucking weak that most people here can't even stand to do it. if you're crashing up there, the chances are high you're new to riding. i'm not saying shit doesn't happen on a bike, but you know what i mean. the skill level needed is not very high.

if you're riding around the city doing meet and eats, the chances you're a squid is pretty damn high too. you might need to learn the meaning of the word squid if you think we use it to much. or you're one of them and don't want to admit it.

and i said i don't ride with a bunch if noob ass, my shit is cool cause i got a bike and meet up with other fucking noob ass riders and am doing this super cool north run, cause i'm a badass sport bike rider, group rides.


i always ride with a group of friends when i ride, i guess i'm just someone that has friends in real life to ride with, that i don't need group web site meets to not be riding around alone.


since you seem to, enjoy tsb. i'd say you should enjoy it so much that you never leave it.

 

You said it right there.

But the fact of the matter, is learning when you go down to avoid it from happening again.

Its different to have a small group of people riding, compared to 20-something people tagging along, and everyone doing different paces, and some people fucking around and running the risk of fucking someone elses day up. Most of us if not all of us have been on TSB, and wont go back, because we are the riders that dont like riding with huge groups of people for the simple fact, that is how people go down unecissarily. Theres different types of people in all walks of life. The same rule applies for riding. We ride the way we do, to keep ourselves safe. Its doesn't make us better than the next group of riders who like to ride 40 deep. But on paper and statistics, we LOOK like the better riders due to the fact that we don't have people crashing weekly, and we damn sure dont have people dying. At the playground a month ago, there was 20 something TSB squids out there and 2 of them ended up wiping out. One dumbass on a Busa at about 50, trying to wheelie and the other guy who highsided and damn near hit a jungle gym.

You wanna go over there, fine. No one here is arguing with you. Go ahead and stroll right on over there. We have a very tight knit group of people here, were all friends, we hang out. Hell, some of us are even neighbors.
We are the way we are for a reason. Its the type of people we are, and you're either gonna fit it and get along, or you're not. The hazing process kind of weeds out the people we know we wouldn't get along with, which I dont see whats wrong with that. And you really cant compare TSB to here, because of the sheer volume of people on here and there. You can say they welcome you with open arms, and that people like us are the ones who give riders a bad name, because we're assholes. In my opinion, its the arrogant fucks, dumbasses riding on tanks and the crash happy squids who kill themselves and other people that give riders a bad name. Exactly the types of riders that flock to TSB and thrive.

No one is forcing you to be here. Take your bike, and your account, and continue your meet and eats at Tijuana Flatts. kthanx.
