This wheel has been on three bikes, and through a house fire so I treated it to some fresh rattlecan:

and then bolted it to the new test bike! 06 tw200, custom fork brace, sm fender, 17″ front, taller gearing etc:

2007 Yamaha tw200 trailway. These bikes are famous for being easy to ride, and virtually bulletproof. Details:

- All original, except some plastics converted to black. Will throw in round headlight and mounts if you prefer the japanese style tw/scrambler style
- Fresh tuneup: cleaned carbs, valve adjustment, oil change, lubed cables, etc…
- Only 1500 miles on wheels/tires
- 8000 miles
- Some scratches but mechanically sound.
- See full size images here: http://socalsupermoto.smugmug.com/Motorcycles/2007-tw200/12336159_yejge#881128663_4bRZ3

Heres her 69′ triumph trophy! It sat for a year so I went to her place, cleaned the carb, kicked it for a hour, and tada! Man it felt good cruising around the neighborhood on that thing.

Shot of the Week

We had an absolute blast at the track this weekend. On top of the usual crew, we were joined by pro ama supersport riders Josh Hayes, and his wfie Melissa Paris, as well as ama supermoto pro Gary Trachy.

If you havn’t tried the track, or supermoto, do yourself a favor and get out there. I promise I’d be endorsing the trackdays even if it wasn’t my gig. We’ve still got a few open slots on the calendar for 5/12 and 5/19, as well as for next month.

motolove…aaahhhhh

Rate Change

After 6 years we’re changing the dmv test bike price a whopping $5 more to $50. Which means with inflation we’re probably still cheaper then when we started. That extra 5 bucks will go towards much needed love for the test bike (tires, clutch, oil, activity that resembles some sort of maintenance), and pills to help me deal with hanging around the dmv for 7-8 at a time.

Our lessons + license skillspack is still $199, and our all inclusive trackdays are still $199. A value at twice the price…

dumb circle is that way…

Women’s Sprotbike Meetup group

I med Lillian through the San Diego Sportbike meetup group. She’s also the grande fromage of the San Diego Women’s Sportbike Meetup group. The members are very friendly and looking for more female riders so drop em a line. Here’s what Lillian has to say:

Finally!! Female Sportbiking just got more exciting!

San Diego Female Sportbikers Meetup Group

Meet local Female’s that share their passion for Sporbike riding! It’s primarily sportbikes however, cruisers are welcomed! Most of our rides are less aggressive, so we encourage beginner’s to join. We have a variety of short to long rides that include: Julian, Borrego Springs/Montezuma, Idyllwild, Ortega Hwy, Palomar, DeLuz, Cursor/Rice Canyon, Coast rides, event rides, etc… In order to improve our riding we organize/participate in riding skill clinic’s, track clinic’s & bike maintenance clinics. In addition to our own meetups, we mainly organize joint rides with our brother group San Diego Sportbike. We have built some long term friendships here and just made riding more fun!
