    SEAT WORK IN SAN DIEGO

    Wow! Great input everyone, I really appreciate it. Time to work the phone and see who can do a quick turnaround.....I am 'meeting' my wife in San Francisco the weekend of the 19th and I really want to take the bike...just planning the trip I am salivating! One of her brothers is having his 45th b-day party that weekend, so, not wanting to waste a (rare these days) free weekend......I made a deal.....all I have to do is 'stop by for a few hours.' Oh yeah! Gonna come to work Friday ready to roll, and head out ASAP...gonna be a blast! Thanks again. Oh, got the orange one. It was orange or white, so I asked my 7 year old daughter which one.....BTW, hopefully not breaking any board rules, but I gotta say SD BMW was really cool through the whole thing. I walked in just knowing I was going to get.....well, not get a good deal. Given the circumstances, I really felt like my salesman (Alan) did everything he could to ease the burden of my upside down situation. There is no comparison between the 650 and the 800.....I would not have believed it if someone tried to explain it to me. My Harley is really getting lonely.......

    SEAT WORK IN SAN DIEGO

    I thought about it, and read a great thread from a guy that did it, but I figured I would see what it would cost to get a pro to do it and go from there. Besides, I can just see me screwing it up and trying to explain that one to the wife..... Thanks though!

    SEAT WORK IN SAN DIEGO

    Thanks man, I do intend to do that, kinda why I am looking for a good upholsterer...someone willing to work with me and do what I want.
  4. Got rid of the two month old G650GS and got a F800GS(I 'needed' more power for that 100 mile daily commute). Love the new bike, but the seat is horrible. I've read hundreds of posts about seats on ADVRider, and some people were successful at having the stock seat tweaked, thereby saving a lot of money. Given that this is more of a 'local' forum, I thought somebody might know a good upholsterer in the area. I appreciate the help. Hope to get on another ride soon.....if I ever get a weekend free! That whole 'work' thing is really starting to interfere!!

    Another adventurer from ramona

    Wow! Ramona sure is being well represented! I am sure the owner of the KTM shop is happy! If any of you commute from town/Pt. Loma/anywhere near and want to take an 'interesting' ride home one day, let me know. My schedule (when in town) is VERY flexible.

    valentines day

    Yeah, Had to kill my dog. He bit my daughter on the face last night (not permanent damage, not too serious), but. I had that dog for 8 years. Got him from the pound when my wife was pregnant with our daughter. Obviously I had no choice, but it sucks no matter how you look at it. Damn dog slept on her bed every night and sat/layed at the front door from when she left until she came home from school.......no idea why he lost his mind, but it was a no-brainer to me. Hurt my daughter, die. Still, it sucks. Pretty much killed our Valentine's Day! I am bummed...as is my wife and daughter. Pretty jacked up that a bro sent me a text, "Let's head to Ocotillo." and I had to tell him what I had going on.......talk about killing the mood for everyone!
  7. Unbelievable, but yesterday I went out to leave work and there was a damn oil puddle underneath my 2009 (1966 miles on it) BMW!! I about had a damn heart attack! So, right now my bike is at that shop and I am delayed departing work until I get word that I can pick up my bike. I have a loaner (logistics of drop off/pick up from Ramona are a pain otherwise), but the loaner is a R1200R.....probably would not be good to take that off-road. I am hoping it is just something loose..... As soon as the bike is fixed I am heading out.....no idea where. Read a good report about a dirt road on Palomar, but I am open to anything. If you are interested in heading out around noonish (shop's best estimate), shoot me an email (Mikegesualdo@live.com). It goes to my BlackBerry so I will monitor throughout the morning.

    Guy next to you

    That is hilarious! I just flew back from the Middle East.....man I coulda had fun with that one!
  9. Truly a ride only for the brave! Unless of course, the 'other half' also rides.....
  10. I don't plan to spend much time at work. In fact, I don't even plan to take off my riding gear much less put on my uniform. Some bs meeting at 8, and then I am out of there. Inlaws in town Thursday night.....needless to say, I am going riding all day Friday. If anyone is interested, I can meet anywhere.....I'll be leaving Point Loma by 9 at the latest.

    New guy from Ramona

    Will do. Actually, I was just kicking around a quick ride before the game.....hhhmmmm...workout or go ride......
  12. Maybe I am a little slow tonight, but I don't have 'access' to the Members Only part, so......where is the Paypal thing or a mailing address for a check? Makes no difference to me and you expressed a preference for check. Please enlighten those of us who would appear to laugh last. Thanks, Mike

    Duffyland Track day

    Super cool, both that you have your own track, and that you have invited others to use it......just another reminder that I've got to get a dirtbike!

    New guy from Ramona

    Also a Ramonan here. I will be riding the cedar creek/boulder oaks area friday if interested. When? I have to 'work' but I can probably bail early.....or just blow it off.
