Rafael seems like a good mechanic , and knows a lot. Helped me out few times . But I think coleman is expensive , but could be because of the location.

I'm in the building next door to that (Madrigal Lofts).  Our rooftop is pretty nice, but their rooftop is definitely better.

Spoke to Rafael this morning. Nice guy. Hopefully he can get the work done today and I can work on the other shit this weekend

Across Mass from Buddha. The building you're talking about has a great rooftop deck, but you pay through the nose for it. Mine isn't quite as big and doesn't have art hanging all over it, but gets the job done with plenty of seating, BBQ grills, a sun deck and pool.

No, but I think he goes by my building on his route home and I can usually hear his exhaust while I'm sitting on the couch.......ON THE 12th FLOOR!   Damn hooligans and their motorcycles!!
I don't know what you're talking about. Neither of my exhausts is loud...they're VERY loud. [laugh] I try to be quiet...really I don't! [evil] Sometimes I can't help myself. It's such a great concrete canyon on 4th between Mass and I...almost as good as ripping through the 395 tunnel. ;D

Being faster than you thought possible…it feels good. No, screw thatâ€"it feels like shotgunning a gallon of adrenaline and chasing it with an all-night orgy aboard a burning Viking boat.

At one point, I sort of made it a game for myself - We'll call it the See If You Can Hear Jim Going By game.  It went a little something like this:
(Me watching tv on the couch)
Jim's bike: "VRRRRooooooooooommmmmmm".
Me: "I think that sounds like a Ducati."
(Peers out window down toward the stop light)
Me: "Yup, that's him."
(Thinking to myself that my bike hopefully sounds that good too)

For some reason I don't think I have ever spotted you on your Daytona though.

I'm pretty certain you've never heard the Daytona because you pass out from the exhaust-induced concussion! [laugh] [laugh]

Do you look toward the I St corner stop light or the Mass Av corner stop light? (I need to know where to rev appropriately ;D)

I'm happy to do so as soon as it cools off...unless I get to come up for a drink every couple of laps or so. [beer]

I live on the 4th street side, closest to the I street stop light.

venomousr1993

around 4 or 5 pm is fine since the back will be shaded by that point.  I will probably have some pork and sausage burgers on the smoker.   Just bring whatever fluid you use and the battery...should be a cinch.  I'll pm you my #
