My stay in the Bay was short. I will be moving to Florida where there are lots of hot spots for bikes too, so don’t worry guys I’ll still be around.

Some of the great motorcycle meets are down in South Beach, and as for great rides you’ll mostly find only scenic routes in South Florida. If you want to hit the twisties you gotta go far to the Gulf Coast side of Florida or find a good track. Currently the closest one that I live near is Moroso. Currently they are undergoing renovations to fit it for motorcycles. So soon there will be one about 20 minutes away. As for weekly track days the next closest thing is in Georgia.  I’ll miss California for its diverse roads and scenery and I don’t think anywhere else can compare.

Since Lex Racing is based in California, that means my beloved R6 is going back into their stables. Thanks for letting me borrow it though. You guys rock! Does this leave me without wheels? Heck no!

I will be establishing the second satellite IPM branch in Florida this fall! I don’t know what I’ll be rolling on yet, but you can bet it’s gonna be a hot sport 600!

Also some events that you can head out too are motorcycle rallies for great causes like breast cancer, or muscular dystrophy. There’s also Biketoberfest in Daytona Beach which is a real big bike show with all the stops.

So if your ever in Florida maybe I’ll see you around! Until then, peace! Here are some unused photos (seems like all I do are these!):

Hey guys! So, I haven’t been able to ride for about a week, and it was making me real anxious. I needed to get my tires on the asphalt to feed my addiction. Since I needed to get my fix, I called up Alex and Justin to go out riding with me. We hit CA HWY 101 and messed around the hills of Brisbane.

Overall, I had a fun, easy ride around where I live. I just had to to give my bike a little wear and tear. No real big twisties around my area. This ride was more for the scenery, wind in your hair kinda thing. So here are some pictures before our ride.

P.S. I just realized the bikes look like a jelly sandwich…if you don’t get it, look real hard.

P.P.S. I know I look angry but its really just sun in my face.

Hi guys! I managed to save the flushmount turn signals from my 2005 R6, hoping that it will fit this bike, and guess what? It does! Justin and I rode to Goody’s house to do the installation, but it took us so long to get the fairings off, that it got dark before we finished shooting the video. Here’s what we managed to get. Don’t worry though, you can see the final product at the end of the post!

Sorry for the unfinished video guys. Here’s is what the finished product looks like.

From the beginning, I was having a really tough time touching even the toe of one foot on The 2007 R6. This is due to the fact that the seat height, 33.5 inches from the ground, is taller when compared to the 2005 version which was 32.5 inches. Even though its only an inch taller, when your 5’4″, like me, it’s makes a big difference especially with the new wider seat.

So here it is guys. The very first modification on my 2007 Red Yamaha R6. Vortex Racing was kind enough to send a lowering link for my baby. I’m putting a lowering link on it because of my tiny stature. Yes, I know all about how messing with the geometry of the bike will ruin it’s handling and all, but here is my reasoning: I will only be able to ride to the best of my ability when I am comfortable on the bike. And having it too high for me, is not comfortable!

The bike was originally about five and a half inches above the ground, as shown in the picture below.

Now with the lowering link installed, it is now three and a half inches off the ground.

It makes the back end of the bike look really low compared to the front. We will need to adjust the front suspension now so that the bike is balanced. After putting on the lowering link for this bike I found that I can’t lean the bike on the kickstand as much as I could before, so it stays almost upright. So, the next thing that I’m probably going to have to do is get a shorten the kickstand. Until then, (peace sign)!

Hi guys! The folks at Lex Racing were cool enough to let me use their R6 as my Longtermer here at IPM! Thanks guys! You rock! So, without further adieu, here’s my official R6 introduction video!

Stay tuned!
