Sex
 
Yup... I'm name'n my blog SEX... because like sex... this is gonna be a long build up... a short month of riding bliss... then back to sleep in storage till I come back home...

since I'm not as eloquent as many of my fellow members... I'll be sure to have a lot of pictures and hopefully Video...

so it begins... the count down till my Mid-tour Leave.

So I ordered a camera/GPS mount that got here yesterday. should be pretty cool

basicly it's gonna look like this (not my bike or the GPS I have but close)

Mr Lefty 04-09-2008 06:42 PM

well my over zealousness has paid off twice now... I put the wrong billing address on my order for the luggage, delaying it a week... and now just found that because I paid with a credit card through Paypal... they used my default address... in California... the one I used to set up the account... the one I haven't lived at for almost 5 years :lol: so I contacted Fed Ex and sent the package back... contacted Xenonexpert.com and gave them my new address... probably delaying a week also

I'd have been pissed if I'd waited till the last minute to order these then had the same issue.


Oh... I've also ordered new maps for my GPS... as soon as I get it I'll be drawing up some tentative trip routes.


I've been doing a lot of research into helmet cams... think I've found what I want... just gonna hold off a little longer.

Mr Lefty 04-10-2008 05:01 PM

So got conformation that my luggage, minus the tank bag which is on order, shipped... along with my HID conversion.

I got my frame sliders last night... they require me to cut but I'm fine with it... they look solid as hell in person... so I'm pleased...

http://www.rg-racing.com/images/prod...e/img161_4.jpg


yeah the clutch side requires a new overflow bottle which came with the kit...


I also ordered a Air Hawk seat... I've heard great things bout these... and figure since I can't build up my stamina the proper way by riding... I can invest in this and it'll help my trip go more smooth. I'm actually sending it to drewpy for him to try out on the trip to Cali...

http://therohostore.com/images/produ...lion_small.jpg

http://therohostore.com/images/produ...er_pillion.jpg

I went with the small as it's 9"x11"... though they didn't list MY bike they did list the ZX9r and said it needed the medium... which is 18"x18"!!! that's fucking HUGE!

I think the 9''x11'' will be fine... after all it's almost exactly the size of a sheet of paper (8.5''x11'') and I what ever little bladders your not sitting on... is where the air rushes too when you sit... so it'd be useless that large

Mr Lefty 04-15-2008 05:36 AM

My stuff should start rolling in here this week... I got my sliders and my Delay for the HID lights... expecting my luggage and shit to get here this week as well... HID kit probably not for another week or so as I still haven't gotten an e-mail from the guy (he said he'd e-mail me when the package was returned and it was on it's way back out)



130 Days

Mr Lefty 04-20-2008 09:38 AM

So I got my luggage in minus the tank bag as it was back ordered but it'll be coming in this week. These things look awesome... but the only thing I'm disappointed with is the lack of reflective material. there's very little facing the rear... and even less on the sides. Originally I was going to cut up a reflective belt that all us AF members get to wear :lol: and have it sewn to the side. but I may have found something better. I put it there just to give you an idea of what a little more reflective tape would do... (the stuff I have is stick on... so I gotta find some cloth)




here's some pics

looks like it sitting outside... though the opening is fucking small!

AND IT DOES! just fucking barely! if my laptop was even .1" bigger either way it wouldn't fit in the opening. AWESOME!

So not too much to update... I got my tank bag a couple days ago... actually it's been over a week. It's fuck'n pimp... lots smaller than my old Held one... but it looks to be better made and came with both a extra shield pouch and a little nylon bag which I assume is for gloves or something :idk:

I contacted Xenonexpress.com about my lights again... took 3 fuck'n e-mails in a week to get a reply and this is what I got... kinda anoying

Quote:

Hi Brandon,


Apexcone has your kit, not us. They handle the returns and haven't contacted me about your package I'll contact them and see what's going on.

If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact me.

Best Regards,

Olivier Gibeault
www.xenonexpert.com
I understand that he didn't have them but 1, this was my 3rd e-mail in a week the other two received no reply... and 2 He TOLD me that he'd let me know when they got the lights back and shipped them back... how the fuck am I supposed to know that it has to go to Apexcone first :idk:

I'm damn glad I'd decided to order all this shit several months in advance... but I can't be too pissed... the original fuck up was mine... had I put the correct shipping address I'd have received my lights a month ago.


in other news... I got a call from the Indy Ticket office... scare'n the shit out of me... :lol: (the pessimist in me) but turns out they just wanted to verify my change of address for the mailing of my tickets.

Also... I've got a couple extracurricular activities planned for Indy... or my trip rather... I'd like to 1 get my tattoo fixed... and maybe get another. and two... I'm planning on going skydiving in Indy... or around there. Rae's on board... I'll start a thread seeing if anyone else is interested. it's something I've always wanted to do but every time the chance came up something pulled me away, weather, work, ect... but I'm hope'n weather corporates and we can do it either one of the week day mornings or Monday... :idk:

back to motorcycle shit...

I had been looking at new helmets because my Arai though an awesome helmet doesn't fit like it should... not sure if I just didn't get the fit right in the first place or it just broke in a lot... but after trying on my brother's Scorpion I couldn't stand wearing my helmet as it felt WAY fucking loose.

I happened to be on Motorcyclesuperstore.com and found Arai Profile cheek pads... for like $35 or something... so I ordered a set of 35mm... 25mm is what came in mine... got them and had my parents ship me my helmet.

PERFECT! fucking awesome! they make the helmet exactly the right fit. no more play from side to side!

if anyone wants a pair of 25mm cheek pads for an Arai Profile helmet... let me know... pay shipping and their yours.

111 Days

Mr Lefty 05-19-2008 05:00 PM

I originally ordered the lights on the 9th of April... canceled the shipment with fed ex on the 11th due to my error with the shipping address. the order was returned to Apexcone on the 15th... finally got a reply from Xenonexpert.com on the 19th of April saying he was gonna contact Apexcone and get back to me... I sent an e-mail everyday starting the 5th... and didnt' get anything until yesterday when I brought up the Better Business Bureau. then I get this...

on a side note... it says he CC'd Jim Powell... there was no CC... :skep:

Quote:

Hi,

Apexcone, not us, has your kit. As you can see below, I've sent an email last week and still didn't get a reply on it as of today. I'm copying Jim Powell who's the owner of Apexcone so maybe he can ask his employees to look into this issue as they seem to ignore even my last emails to them about it. You will have to pay for the shipping again though.

I suggest you call them at :858-565-1742

Your order number is: XXXXXX

If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact me.

this was after my 29th e-mail to them... yes 2-9! needless to say I was fucking pissed... so I called up Apexcone... first call answer... 15mins later... my lights are shipped... :rockout:

FUCK XENONEXPERT.COM!


if you want HID lights... go through Apexcone... they're the ones that actually ship, build and warranty the kits for Xenonexpert.com and over 15 different HID online retailers anyways.

so my lights are on their way to my parents house in ND...




95 DAYS!

Mr Lefty 07-28-2008 03:23 AM

Update... it's been what... 70 days? :lol: anywhoo...

Just started doing my paperwork to get my ticket home... and I find out my orders from my last base were done wrong... and more than likely... the error had to be caught with in 90 days of me getting to Osan for it to be fixed... so I may be fucked out of my ticket home... which... looking now is $2500! FUCK!!!!

so needless to say I'm out for skydiving in Indy... but at least I'll make the trip and be able to meet a lot of ya'll

in other news,
I got my jacket and pants zippers matched up so they zip together, decided to say fuck the fairings... I'll rock the broken ones... and started finalizing my route in my GPS... as it turns out... I'll only spend a night in Eureka Springs AR and a couple in Biloxi MS camping... the rest... ya'll have offered up a couch, floor, or bed for me to crash on... THANKS... :twfix:


oh... and

29 Days!!

Mr Lefty 08-26-2008 04:36 PM

Well... I've got 4.5 hours till I'm officially off work... and 10.5 till I'm in the air! this will likely be the last access I have until I'm stuck in SF for 3hrs and Denver for 4hrs.

So anyways... later



10hrs left!!!

Mr Lefty 09-02-2008 09:58 PM

Well... after a long as wait... the day is finally here... well... ok really it's still 3.5hrs away... but I'm gonna head to bed after I finish this.

I got all my stuff packed... got everything I wanted done to the bike thanks to Cutty for the help mostly finding the bolts after I stepped on the bin containing them and reminding me where I left each tool... yeah.. ADD big time. :lol:

did a bit of riding... only a couple hundred miles in the last few days... but I'll surpass that tomorrow alone.

Weather looks good for tomorrow... should be mid 60's to 70's... but more importantly DRY! god knows I'm gonna see my share of rain in a few days when I hit Arkansas and on my way down to Florida.

well here's some Pictures of my bike all packed up....

Mile 0

Mr Lefty 09-03-2008 11:23 PM

Mile 0-458

Set out at 0800 from my parents in Fargo... fucking cold... 42* with a slight wind... so I wore my jeans under my A* Air Flow pants.... and put the liner back in my jacket.

The trip went very smooth... I can say my Air Hawk Seat pad is worth it's weight in gold... I need to tighten up the Vista Cruise as it doesn't work under 75... and over 75 it will hold... but on a bump it'll slowly slip. But it worked enough to give my right wrist a break.

ND and SD are fucking boring... at least the eastern portion. Flat in ND... little rolling hills in SD... and fucking construction EVERY FUCKING WHERE!

Iowa was better... and so is Nebraska... it's fucking sad when NEBRASKA is a more interesting ride than your state! :lol:

anyways... here's some pics.... since not much to look at there... I took pics of my bike... yeah... fuck off

Miles 458-2204

The ride from Omaha to Eureka Springs AR went well... the only mishap was my GPS's fondness for Kansas City... as it created a loop and let me through it again just as my bike started sputtering and I had to switch to reserve. then rode up and down the streets trying to find a gas station... 20 blocks and 1 gas station.. my tank is 4.7 gal... I took 4.658 when I filled up... :panic:

Met up with T-Rock in Springfield. Good guy... defiantly chose the right college.. fuck'n hot college chicks everywhere. wished he could have come down to AR and rode with me and Smilieman.

Ahh... Smilieman... yeah... about him... this "dude" is actually a woman... "healthy" as she put it... names Shamone.. but damn... bitch can RIDE... :lol:

we logged about 350 miles on Saturday... my first introduction to proper twistys... :drool: almost got rid of my chickenstrips... but not quite...

set my alarm for 0500 to make the 900 mile trip to Florida and Rae's. woke up at 430 and fought with myself for 10 mins... realize my tent polls had snapped... and the tent had collapsed on the foot end of me... finally got up... went to take a shower... and yup... no water... so now... a 900 mile trip and I haven't showered for 3 days... 3 hot days of 12+hrs of riding... let's hope Rae likes the au-natural smell of men... :rofl:

so I head back to the tent... and BOOM a huge bolt of lightening strikes and thunder simultaneously... GREAT! grab my flashlight... pit... pat... pit pat... fuck... even better rain... then 20 seconds later... the skys open up! FUCK!

so I pull my tent up stakes and all and carry it under the covered walk way they had up by the cabins... and pack and take the the tent down there.

realize that I hadn't put my rain covers on my bags yet and it's raining so hard that shit's already soaked through into my clothes.

I got everything packed... threw on my FrogTogs... and rode off... the frog togs work AWESOME! but don't breathe worth shit... so when it warmed up I had to pull off and take them off as I was burning up. It rained for an hour or so... some of the hardest rain i've ever seen... tires worked well... not a single pucker moment. the new HID lights worked awesome as well... fuckers are bright as all hell.

passed a few bikes on my way to Rae's... mostly cruisers... a few sport bikes.... but only in Memphis, and Jackson areas... and once I hit FL. had one dude towing a 1000rr with a chrome stretched swingarm look at me and laugh as I passed him... apparently he thought it odd to actually see someone RIDING a bike.:shrug:

got to Rae's at about 830 or so.... fuck'n WORN the hell out, and smelling quite ripe. gotta say she's twice as hot in person... and only 1/2 as tall. :lol:

but she took good care of me... though I passed out early :sorry: I'll make it up to ya tonight :wink:

gonna ship my tent, sleeping bag, and sleeping pad to my parents... so I can rid myself of that... note if your camping on a motorcycle... spring for the 2man tent. it's worth it!

pics... to come... need to connect my cam.

Mr Lefty 09-26-2008 05:34 PM

Ok... I'm LONG over due for an update... but I tried one yesterday only to have my browser crash because of Photobucket and I lost everything I typed... so here goes Update part deux

I chilled at Rae's place for two days... first day just trying to get my bearings as I was recovering from the ride down... and the fright that as nasty as Mississippi is... it's my future home for 4 years... :panic: but that's another story...

anyways... the first day I slept most of.. woke up to have lunch with Rae... look'n like a fuck'n bum... with my half ass goatee and wearing my only dry set of clothes. (everythign else got soaked before I could put my rain covers on...apparently cortec's bags are made of sponge). after lunch she dropped me off at home and I crashed again :lol:... woke up to hang out with her and Heath as they swapped over her tires for some for the trip.

Heath's a cool mother fucker... too bad he doesn't post here more... he's got alot of knowledge... just not much of a forum person as he put it. look forward to hitting up some track days with him.

the next day I rode to the beach as Rae had a bunch of errands to run so I wasn't gonna catch up with her... I rode all the way down to Panama Beach... but didn't take many pics... just really was enjoying how insane some of the houses were and being lost in thought.

I did stop at a beach just south of Rae... took some pics of Chewy...

http://i170.photobucket.com/albums/u...ndy/-063-2.jpg



Saw a dolphin… actually a few but only got one decent shot
http://i170.photobucket.com/albums/u...0Indy/-067.jpg



the next day we got up early... err I got up early... Rae's not a morning person... but we got our stuff ready and set out... around 9 I think.
http://i170.photobucket.com/albums/u...ndy/-03737.jpg
http://i170.photobucket.com/albums/u...ndy/-03738.jpg

The ride was... AWESOME... it was my first time riding on a road trip with someone else... so thanks Rae... you were gentle and made it easy :wink:

naw seriously though... I don't know if I ever want to ride a long trip alone again... after this trip up and the trip with Ryan, Nick, Kat, and Rae... from Nicks... I felt so alone riding... kept check'n my mirrors for my friends... :panic:

anyways... we rode up stopped alot... and took our time.. turned a 9hr ride into a 12 hr one... but I wouldn't have changed it at all... weather was AWESOME save the 30 mins of rain we saw... and 20 of that we were trying to find cover and changing into our rain gear...
http://i170.photobucket.com/albums/u...ndy/-03749.jpg
http://i170.photobucket.com/albums/u...ndy/-03750.jpg


but the rain only lasted about 10 mins after we did that so next stop we stripped down to leathers again. We saw some very interesting religious signs in AL... but unfortunately we didn't stop... Next time... next time

http://i170.photobucket.com/albums/u...ndy/-03752.jpg

Mr Lefty 09-26-2008 05:52 PM

We made it to Trip's about 9ish... it was good to finally meet our fearless leader... shit we've been filling a version of TWF with our bs post whoring for what... 3.5 years now... crazy.

we sat and talked and waited for Katherine. she was due in at 10... at about 1030 she called and apparently decided to go to Indy first to "scout" and was north of Knoxville. Trip gave her directions and said she'd be here around 12ish... around 1230 we got a call from another cell as Kat's had died... and Rae and I set out squid'd up to help lead her the last... .5 miles to trips.

FUCK and I though Rae was short... Kat showed up riding a pocket bike version of Trip's bike... loaded down with midget luggage. but wearing normal human rain gear... we all sat up and bs'd for a while then Nick crashed... and the girls felt picture time was at hand... and tricked me into being topless...

http://i253.photobucket.com/albums/h...d/DSC03756.jpg

http://i253.photobucket.com/albums/h...d/CIMG1915.jpg

we woke up early... ok.. not THAT early... and headed out for the Gap... but seeing as I'm the only one who's got a penis in the group... and so inherently the only one on time... we weren't even finished with our breakfast when Trip was off work.

Trip met us at the restaurant and we headed for The gap.

http://i253.photobucket.com/albums/h...s/CIMG1928.jpg


WOW... those roads were AWESOME... and those are just the roads LEADING to the gap... but as we neared... it started to rain... :idk: oh well life goes on... so we stopped and got some gas... and I took some pics
