Bring yourself, your special someone (including your bike) and whatever you're in the mood to drink. If there is anything special you would like to tempt us with on the grill (or you have special diets) please feel free to bring that along and throw it on the grill, etc. Of course bikes are not required...especially if you and/or your special someone choose to have a libation or two.

When: September 18th @ 3 PM
Where: Reseda (will PM address to those attending)
Why: Hang out with friends and make new ones ]]> Ride Outs and Events Lifeon2Whls http://www.socalsvriders.org/forums/showthread.php?t=30868 Random bike stuff FS http://www.socalsvriders.org/forums/showthread.php?t=30867&goto=newpost Mon, 06 Sep 2010 21:33:11 GMT Cleaning out the rest of the bike stuff from the garage, don't want to throw it away in case someone has use for it.:flag:

I would like to set up a ride on the HW 33 some time this week or weekend. Thurs, Fri, Sat work for me i would like to avoid Sunday, it can be any of those days depending on if it works out better for others. I would like to start the ride before 10:00 and we can meet in Ventura, the chevron at Seward off the 101 or at a gas station in Ojai at the bottom of the 33. General I go 40-50 miles up rest and ride back down, we can grab a bit to eat at the end or just head home. I like to travel at a fast pace but nothing ridiculous. Let me know bellow if you are interested, it would be nice to ride with others instead of going into the canyons by just myself.
Thanks ]]> Ride Outs and Events common101 http://www.socalsvriders.org/forums/showthread.php?t=30866 FS: Stock 2005 sv650s Exhaust (not complete?) http://www.socalsvriders.org/forums/showthread.php?t=30865&goto=newpost Mon, 06 Sep 2010 19:59:08 GMT Hello all,

I've had this sitting in my garage for 2yrs now and it hasn't moved, time to get rid of it. It's in pretty good shape and came off the bike when it had 2-3k miles. It looks like it has some scratches on it, but whatever. Some of the screws and whatnot were re-used for my current exhaust.

How about $20 obo? No offer is insulting. What you see in the pics is what you get. You pick up, I'm in Pacific Beach. I figured I'd try here before Craigslist, thanks!

I'd like to get a ride going on ANY Sunday, up to Newcombs for eats, and back down. I'd like to get an idea of what date is the best for other SVers:

Obviously, the DATES ON THE POLL ARE WRONG. SORRY. RIDE WILL STILL BE ON A SUNDAY, NOT SATURDAY.


9/12/10
9/19/10
9/26/10
10/3/10



If people are spread out we can meet in 2 places and meet @ the base of the hill.

West L.A. people
8:00am-Meet
8:15~KSU
La Cienega/10 freeway Mobil Station



View Larger Map


We'll ride and meet up with anyone else at the Foothill shell station:

9:30-Meet
9:50-KSU
8404 Foothill Boulevard
Sunland, CA 91040-2812


View Larger Map


I think an hour is plenty of time for the first group to get to the shell station
@ the base of the mountain. From there we head up to Newcombs.

It's yellow and is in great shape, except on the left side where it got really friendly with a handle bar. I paid about $100 for it a couple years ago, so I'm looking for about $80? let me know, email me at afielder85@aol.com

I was the only SV, but I was happy to keep up with some of the 600's by the end of the day. That really is a high speed track.

Anyhow, I have a lot of rubber "marbles" stuck to my tire. I must of picked them up from other riders because I wasn't pushing it hard enough and my tires are street tires not track tires.

Do you guys just pick the marbles off with your fingers?

Danielle Hebert is down from Vancouver on her open-ended moto-journey after wrapping her last CD in Nashville. Sold everything she owns except her guitars, her recording and sculpture gear, loaded it all in storage and headed out on her GS750 Suzuki... 13,000 miles ago.

She is an amazing talent - composer, arranger, musician, sculptor, artist - and she was offered the Backstage at the Coffee Gallery in Altadena next Sunday so she can raise some more funds and keep rolling. http://funkylittlecoffeehouse.com

If you really want to get a sense of who she is on this ride - you MUST read her blog. http://daniellehebert.wordpress.com/

She's staying in town until she finishes reviewing the audio mix on her CD at a local studio and then she heads out again.

Bring friends!

Her website has links to some audio samples

This time, I'd like to switch up the meeting spot to the valley side of Topanga at the corner with Mulholland Drive. I figure it'd avoid the po's for most of the ride on PCH and Sunset.
