Have you ever ridden Lookout Mountain?
No, never have. If it is in Colorado that is. I haven't been here that long, and I have been only riding for 3/4 months now.
I am looking forward to what MO has to offer. I was told there are some pretty good rides down there. I suppose I will see soon.
Sorry....HELLO!!!! Hope you enjoy it here.

Sorry, I mean't riding with guys vs girls. I mostly ride with males here and one other female. I don't know any female riders. I don't do the whole reckless and squid thing.

what about bicyclist?
I've got a couple buds that ride all over in that area. if you are on the CO. riders forum one is Daemon. he had a hell of a route set up for us when we visited out there.
I'd rather be young and single than the creepy old guy. However, no homo.
if she thought you were gay she would think she was safe with you. ;)
Welcome to Springfield, hope you have a good time here.

Just got into town tonight. I am having sticking problems with my throttle, anyone know what the causing can be? If I get it fixed I can ride for a little tomorrow, maybe.
Concabar
07-20-2009, 11:01 PM
Cable lube?
I don't know, I hauled it down here on a trailer (open). Once I took it off, the throttle start sticking. I did get caught in a down pour in kansas, I don't know if that had something to do with it

:) So you like riding in the rain? I never have, only do it when required. But I am going to be out riding Wed AM if you wish to tag along.
Oh, no. I didn't ride it down. It was on a trailer. I can't wednesday, first day on the job.

Any suggestions. I looked at the cables they aren't kinked. I think it is loose, but I really don't know what I am looking for. I wont lie I don't know nothing about a bike when it comes to the mechanical aspects. Should I, yes I probably should. Do I, thats another story.

Throttle assembly in a bind maybe........tie down strap secured around the throttle housing?

If you had the tie-down strapped onto the bar, make sure the grip isn't bound against the bar end.

I've sometimes had a similar problem but it's sparatic. It seems as if it winds into a moderate RPM (9000) it won't "coast" and the trottle is jumpy. Don't know if this is the same thing.

I haven't ridden it yet. It doesn't spring back. I am going to check it out today.
