I don't need the extra pressure that comes with knowing that you can't afford anything on display other than some helmet cleaner.

I think that my mind is made up for my next bike if i should ever get one though .

Riding up PCH and through Bel Mont Shore to get there from southern OC is the ****... during summer.

WTF is a motorcycle convention in southern California doing in winter? I know new stuff for next year comes out for previews around this time of year but even in Cali its cold right now. You're not gonna see hot chics on bikes cruisin PCH this time of year. Boo!

But I'll probably be there. Live like 15 minutes away.

Whos going Friday? I might not go this year since Im working all weekend. But could someone check how much the vendors are selling Sidi Vertigo boots? I might go there after work on Saturday just to pick up some boots if the price is right.

i can't believe you are complaining about the weather. i spend at least a couple hours a day just riding around; thats how nice it is out.

unrelated, but anyone from San Diego want to go to this? I thought about maybe going Saturday.

there is cheap gear, but quantity is limited, they had the arai rx7 corsair hayden wired for 375, but they ran out of my size, only sizes left were xl and s, i ended up getting an arai quantum nakano for 350, an ok price. they had alpinestars smx plus boots for 159.95, and really cheap joe rocket and alpinestars textile jackets under 50 bucks

thats what i thought to myself also, it felt the smallest out of all the 600's, honda said its pretty much the same as the 04's. im not all that big either 5'11-6'0 with boots and 170lbs
