Ready For A Day At The Track

September 30, 2009 at 9:40 am · Filed under 2006 Yamaha R1, Motorcycles

I’ll be taking the R1 to the track tomorrow.

I gave her fresh oil, flushed the radiator, and replaced the antifreeze with Water Wetter, checked the brake pads, brake fluid, adjusted and lubed the chain, safety wired the oil drain plug and oil filter, pulled the fuses for the lights, removed the mirrors, taped over the light lenses, and cleaned her up a little .
I may ride like crap, but at least she looks nice!

Thanksgiving Weekend Ride

December 2, 2008 at 10:21 pm · Filed under 2006 Yamaha R1, Bill, Family, Hobbies, Motorcycles

I had the weekend off, so I spent most of the day Sunday riding SouthEastern San Diego.
It was a beautiful day: temperatures in the upper 70s; clear skies; clean air; beautiful scenery.

I only took a handful of pictures.
I saw some cool old vintage bikes at Mother’s Kitchen.
And, of course, I took a self-indulgent shot of my R1 atop Mt Palomar.

A photographer was there, and jumped out on my way down the mountain to snap a picture.
It wasn’t a great shot of superior riding ability…but it was me and my bike 🙂

A ride through the mountains

October 6, 2008 at 7:58 am · Filed under 2004 Yamaha FZ1, Bill, Hobbies, Motorcycles

Today I joined a few friends (members of the FZ1OA) on an all-day ride around Southern California mountains. We met at the Cajon Pass and rode to Big bear, down the mountain and up to Idyllwild, then headed home.

I didn’t take many pictures (sorry! I was busy riding), but I thought I’d post these:

A few of the guys met at my house in the morning.
