Was cool to see Eric up there. Was a decent sized group. Although the little bit of seperation by traffic getting onto the freeway sucked. Everyone was long gone as we went passed the construction on 94. With a passenger I'm not willing to risk flying at 110mph through that crap to catch up :)

But... Like I said, was a good group of people out there. LOTS of bikes. 15% off for the bike guys inside if you needed anything. I bought yet another helmet, haha. Bought an extra jacket/helmet/gloves earlier in the day.

Carter in there is good shit. Will be buying more very soon for the bike through them.

I broke off early myself, nice meeting you up there and the bike looks fantastic in person.

Whatkind of helmet did you pick up? I just bought a Scorpion last fall and the anti-fog shields that come with those helmets are awesome.

I bought my Icon last wednesday. I bought a cheap HJC for the girl to have something last night for the ride since the Skorpion "Black Dahlia" i bought for the girl earlier in the day they didn't have in her size, and i'm going back friday to pick up that black Arai that has the samurai on the sides of it. that one's like $580, so I don't know if I really want it, but it's too badass, haha. I do want the black Skorpion "Crack Addict" one with the skeleton head on the side of it too. For half the price, I might just do that one, but Carter is too good of a sales guy, haha.

And thanks for the compliments. We'll have to get together for the black powdercoating as I'm pretty sure I'm wanting to do that when I do the tire change.

Still love the 1000 though, and I think Breecher should have pushed harder for me to pick one up, haha. J/K

Carter will work a deal with you on an Arai, one of the best brand helmets money can buy. But imo, Scorpion is the BEST helmet in its price range. You can pick up an EXO 400 for as little as 130, and an EXO 1000 for 300 and they all come with the best visor technology in the market.

I have the top of the line whatever its called Scorpion Exo yada yada. It survived a few crashes racing at the track and saved my head so i give it 2 thumbs up! Also not bad for the price either, even though they aren't a SHOEI~ :rockwoot:

What size are they Chris?

HJC is a small since it was for the woman.

the ICON i believe is a large. it might actually be a medium, but it fits the same as all the other larges i've tried on. the ARAI i want will be sized large

I didn't know these were going on already. Damnit, I was out on a boring ride with my friends. They all had passengers and we went down to Pewaukee lake and it was GHEY.

Chris, bike is hot in person!

is it Karter with the "K"? I feel bad for saying it wrong now.

Thanks Tyler. I'm really liking the attention it gets. It's kinda funny. Probably a little weird to see a tall skinny white dude hop off of it, but oh well, haha.
