new from Troy IL
05/12/13 10:48 PM

Just picked up 2013Black SE w ABS from JMP in Woodriver IL. Special order out of Chicago. These folks are okay, good deal. Working way through 4000rpm break in, what a pain. Anyway fun ride. Other bike is 07 HD Roadking Black of course. Live in Troy IL, 58, sport touring only, did the fast thing in the early 80's, 82 GPZ1100. ZX14R, what a bike , love it. Named it Dr. Banner after the Hulk. Maybe. First mod, license plate. Yikes, then Pipes, what were they thinking, then sliders, then double bubble shield. I'm a happy boy.

I live over in Alton IL.

We have a St Louis Area ZX14 facegroup page, but its pretty slow right now. Only about 10 of use on there.

Also, there is a group of us, mainly cruisers and kneedraggers, very fun adult group on www.Stlryderz.com. We meet up for bike night(hang out and have dinner) every thursday night. But location varies.

Welcome and enjoy that new member of your family.

I'd like to maybe join the St Louis area riders a time or two as time allows......, but if its in St Louis, that is about 135 miles from me. You guys ever meet over on the IL side?

They do meet on the IL side, but it wouldnt help much, it would probably be like edwardsville or Fairview Heights. Wouldnt really take much time off the trip. Oh, Im Kevin on Stlryderz.
