Who in SoCal has a bike (motorcycle)? Lets go cruising!!!!!

For those of you who are "REALLY ****" about people posting topics in the EXACT categories, please forgive me. The only reason i'm posting in this again in this specific section is because i don't really know anyone else from other sections of the forum. so anyways...


I'm so bored at home. My only buddy that i grew up with and just started riding with left for the army. Therefore none of my other boys have bikes nor their licenses. so i just wanted to see who in here owns a bike or can get their hands on one? Lets cruise around somewhere.... anywhere... i'm just bored right now!!!!


As you can see, based on my handle (user name), it clearly says GsxR. i USED TO own one til some unfortunate financial bull came along a few years back. so anyways, i'm here with my boy's Yamaha R6 and i have NO ONE to roll around with.

Hit me up or something. I live in Long Beach so if you live within a reasonable distance.... let's get this going.


For those who do own bikes. what kind do you guys own? how long have you been riding?

if you're down to go cruise around, we'll show each other some spots and where the locals usually go and hang out. I got a couple of my buddies agree and rent out a Can-Am Spyder for an entire day (since they don't have their M1's. in order to rent these you just need your basic Class-C license and some $$$). these stupid things are not cheap.

do you cruise for fun just to relax, or is it a route that you take to get to a certain place?

my buddy and i are planning to check out "Black Star Canyon". i haven't been there since high school (over 7 years ago) because of a KKK incident. yes... i repeat... a KKK incident. we were young and ignorant so we went through some "private property / no trespassing" areas right before some kind of camp site. and we hit a dead end with cars parked all around. we noticed that ALL CARS had shotguns and rifles in the driver seat. we left and took another wrong turn and some KKK guy jumped in his huge old pickup truck and chased us til we hit the city streets. why do i say it was a "KKK" place? Simple.... they had those KKK flags on top of their homes at that dead end.

Yeah. the previous owner modded the bike that way. they're those type of spikes that you see on some rider's helmets. it's "okay". it definitely gets a lot of attention every time i pull up near other riders or at motorcycle dealers i'm thinking to paint them black cause they're getting rust dots on 'em.

Why don't you set up a bike ride date on Sat or Sun and maybe a few of us can show up and have a blast. You pick the venue as long as it's not more than 100 miles from me.

Yeah, i can definitely do that. It's gonna be a few weeks from now though. where do you reside? what bike do you currently use? any suggestions on where to go riding? i'm pretty much up for whatever. i'll need to invest in a leather jacket and some tires before hand. my buddy's jacket is a little too wide and my front tires aren't looking too good. would you happen to know of any places for EXTREMELY GOOD PRICES on tires?
