Nuage, if I buy Pyrat's bolt then I'll sell my scg. Its a 08 with 1600miles on it and a ton of mods. I'm the original owner. I can't promise it won't hit 2k miles quickly though as I am going to be riding a lot when I get home. Send me a pm and we can discuss details. I'll be flying from Manas AFB to Ft. Dix so I maybe slow in responding for the next 48hrs.

 

[ArmyMP09]

Bolt yes a m4 is on my list of toys to buy this summer! I got so many parts left over from my deployment. Army just gives away issued parts like pistol grips, mags, lights, rail systems.. Lol I got a bag full of m4 parts.

 

[Nuage420b]

only 1600????? My 08S has 7000+ We'll wear down some more of that rubber in July.

 

[ArmyMP09]

Yeah, I bought it in nov 09, didn't ride it all winter, then rode like 20times in the spring, got deployed in april. So I haven't barely seen it. No lie I've barely been home when I've owned it. So july we will wear down some rubber and add some miles onto it. Since u'll be in town u can check it out also if I buy pyrats bolt.

 

[Nuage420b]

Sweet, I'm down for shorty rides throughout the week as well. If your work schedule allows. I'm getting pumped my clubmans will be installed when I get to ride again so it'll be a new experience again. You think I can get away without mirrors out there? I only have bar ends and don't really wanna buy new mirrors til i can afford the rizoma's that i want. I've never been hassled in TX about my mirrors and thats riding daily on and off post.

 

[ArmyMP09]

I'll have to see my work schedule. I have the crossroads and crg mirrors. I never use them, and I'm sure u can get away with new mirrors long as ur head is on swivel in the dmv area. Too many stupid drivers.

 

[Nuage420b]

lol, i know i can personally ride with out mirrors. I was referring to getting pulled over for lack there of. I grew up on the beltway so i'm very aware of the morons on the road out here.

 

[Nuage420b]

BUMP

 

[rideboarder589]

a cop pulled up next to me in baltimore one time and told me i needed a second mirror (only have a left side)...but other than that no problems

 

[ArmyMP09]

Yeah i dont most cops will care or atleast in VA. They dont pay any attention to Buells or not until they see it. Overall you should be good, but dont qoute me on that. well good new is I'M STATESIDE!

 

[Nuage420b]

Sweetness, enjoy your family! then recon those routes!

 

[flaya564]

I've been following this thread and would love to join you guys but work has been a bit unpredictable. I live near Ocean City so making the trip will most likely be last minute.

 

[oh9bolt]

Hope you can join. Armymp09 and I will be making an OC trip more than likely this year if not meet up then.

 

[Nuage420b]

I'll probably be in OC during my trip as well. wife wnats to take the kids to the beach. I gotta ask though, I haven't touched OC water for over a decade due to the filthyness. Has it gotten any bteer?

 

[ArmyMP09]

Idk nuage, haven't been in the water in a long time. I used to go evert summer as a kid, but that was in the mid 80s. Oh god did I just say that out loud. Haha. I'm def doing a OC ride this summer so we'll all meet up flaya. I'll be doing route recon tuesday and wensday next week so the route will be planned by next weekend. I'll try to place a map on this thread as well once I get it planned. I'm very excited to finally get some buellers together in the DMV area.

[Nuage420b]

Shit, I'm excited to finally ride my hometown. I grew up racing around in cagers all over the DMV. And i know how much I loved hugging turns and flying around then. I got my bike learned to ride it and olny got to runt he highways last tour on RnR. then I came abck and picked it up in january and it was snowing so i didn't ride then. I got to TX and have only been on 2 roads that come anywhere close to the types of twisty turny upy downy roads I'm used to traveling.

As far as your hand gun skills go, just apply the same basics you do for rifle man. i don't get to shoot pistol much either except the random free range days when they happen to issue us some 9mm rounds. but i've put at least 12,000 rounds through my M4 last year at all kinds of ranges. it's really all about the trigger pull for me. figure out if your pistol is a loli pop or if you need to put the dot on target and just apply the lessons the army taught you. I used a glock 19 at the last range i went to and at 25 meters I was only taking head shots, and i could choose forehead or mouth. at 50 meters i could get about 80% of my rounds on the silhouette. i took a few head shots but kept missing by a few inches. i think if i had the glock 17 i would of been able to bust that grape.

 

[ArmyMP09]

Yeah I carry for my civilian job as well so I'm always armed. Just need to put rounds down range right now before I've got requal again. I miss shooting, I really do. Nothing like a good week at the range everyday shooting. I own a glock 17 same as I carry everyday, love it compared to the M9.
Anyways I'll make sure that the route is nice and twisty through some of the best roads in the DMV area.

 

[zaxrex]

I'd be in on the meet, assuming that I can learn the basics of the bike in time
