Hello LA riders.  I'm from Lafayette but now live in NOLA.  I do most of my riding on the northshore, WAY better roads and no traffic.  I ride an 08 S2R1000 and an 02 CBR600, whichever my mood chooses.

Hey Guys, live in Baton Rouge, ride an 08, 848. I am on the lookout to replace my S2R1K Monster that got totalled last year, just have to find a way for the SO to not flip out about it.

Hey welcome to the board BCDR board!

Do you plan on ridin up for any of the Mardi Gras craziness?


Title: Re: Introduce Yourself
Post by: kutter on February 13, 2009, 06:16:05 AM
Actually I have to bring my scooter to the shop in New Orleans on the 21st for the recall and I am not certain how long they will have it. For the most part I have not gone to Mardi Gras in New Orleans for many, many years. My days of getting falling down drunk are behind me and it is just too crazy down there, besides I am in school Monday-Friday so it sort of puts a damper on what is possible, unlike some of the state schools mine does not take off for Carnival. I got talked into walking in a parade this weekend here in Baton Rouge so that will likely be the extent of my Mardi Gras festivities.

I'm Dave. I live in Gretna. Usually ride an '06 S2r800, but she's been down since Dec. :'( Gearbox locked up tighter than a drum 2 blocks from getting onto I10 in Kenner. :o All this nice weather these last few weeks has been KILLING me! :(

Hey Dave! Welcome to the BCDR board. Sorry to hear about your bike problems  :( If you wan't to start tearin into the bike to see what the problem is just let me know  [thumbsup] I'm only about 10 minutes away from Gretna (5 min on my Monster [moto]  ;D)


Title: Re: Introduce Yourself
Post by: Dave328 on February 23, 2009, 06:02:40 PM
Thanks. I'm going to see if Duc of NO can pursuade Duc NA to goodwill a warranty repair. I'm kinda thinking a catastrophic gearbox failure should not be normal for 3000 miles!  [roll] ;D I haven't brought it in yet since my other Eyetalian POS is getting ready to come out of the shop after 4+ months and $7K  :o and fundage is a little tight. ;) I pulled the clutch cover and clutch basket out hoping something simple came loose, but not my luck. I'll debate whether I want to tackle r&ring the motor and splitting the case if Duc of NA isn't helpful. [bang]

Hey ya'll!  I'm glad to see the bayou presence picking up on the DMF, especially with a dealership in the area again.

I'm Jen, I grew up on the Best Bank, moved to West End, and commuted on a little Piaggio scooter until the storm.  Consequently, I've been working mostly in our newly added DC office (Hi Alan) and zipping around on an '03 620.  I was about to bring my bike down while I fix my condo there, but that has not yet worked out, plus I'll be switching jobs soon.  I miss crawfish most of all.

I hope to see you all in action, on the road [moto] or at regular meetups [beer].  Take care!


Title: Re: Introduce Yourself

What a small world jen!  hope you get down there sometime and meet my little brother. (he's not really, but Mindy and I treated him like one, plus his family treated me like it also.) great guy!!

Hi I'm Dave, I live in Nor Cal, The west coast is where Im from, but once upon a time I used to live in Algiers Point, and went to work most days in Belle Chase. Thought I would just have a look around here as I handn't noticed the BCDR before.

You all have a nice shrimp Po Boy for me.
I like the ones from Danny & Clydes...
Maybe put some bacon on it. [bacon]

Title: Hi from Denham Springs

Hello from Denham Springs, 

I'm looking forward to meeting some local folks when I can clear my plate a bit.  Look for me at south louisiana practical pistol competitions, or sitting in a tree, throwing arrows at food, when I'm not in the saddle.

Not even in the slightest bit! >:( [bang]

The board is kind of slow in general during winter. You might want to check it out in the general forum section or no moto content section. The racing & trackdays board should be picking up with racing season coming on.

Hey guys, I'm 13, I currently live in Prague CZ. but will be coming back to the US at the end of the month. I am thinking about moving down to New Orleans in late summer.
I hear it's good for year around riding.

Hope to meet and ride with you all soon.
