GT...it's never too late! lol, hell, we still have a month or so to go, hopefully. I used to ride to Springfield all of the time to Comp. Acc's. Heard it burnt down though, and the owner's under investigation. Anyways, yeah, the more people that we can get togather, the better.

Everything that I heard about Comp Acc's, came from a Honda Reg Rep and from someone in the sales industry who always has the "inside info". From what they told me, their sales there weren't doing to well. Yeah, it's like Iron Pony, but with motorcycles, ATV's, and all kinds of other stuff, the place was huge, had everything you could possible want for your toy, BUT, in the last 5 years, sales dropped dramatically. Well, it was said that the owner paid someone off to start that fire, so, he could collect the insurance money, rebuild, and still pocket 6-7 figures. I could see where that'd be true. And coming from the people I heard it from, that made me believe it even more.

I heard the same as well, regarding Comnp Acc's. The owner is obviouslly going to make out from this incident: The place itself was not exactly "state of the art". Have you ever seen the Serv Dept? Shit lying everywhere...anyways, that being said, I'm sure he had insurance double what the place is actually worth, so, he collected that, plus he collected from all the bikes, records, equipment, office stuff, everything...say he got $10M from everything, well, he could build a state of the art facility for $3M contact the motorcycle manufac's they'll send him some bikes...I mean, all kinds of bs. And those figures aren't even 1/10 of the whole shabang. Not even close. ANYWAYS...as far as Iron Pony, no problem. I'm up for that. But once Comp Acc's gets rolling again, in MOO when it comes to actual performance parts, they offered more in stock than IP. IP has lots of accessories, and can order anything. I know a couple guys that work there. 1's a WERA racer, nothing big, he's still trying to climb the ladder, and he's doing a damn good job too! and the other 1's a stuna, lol. I'm not so big into the whole stunting thing, but, he's a great guy, so I look past that he's a stuna, lol. I go to the dealership here in town, AKA my 2nd family. I get all kinds of free s**t there as well as free service, etc...Okay, so I was going to post the following in the regional section under my other post, but being that there's more people under this post...I'm wanting to get some people togather for like food/grub. We could go to QS&L, wherever...I'd just like us all to get togather, have some fun, talk about riding this Summer and so on. Maybe next weekend, Saturday? I'd invite everyone over to my house, but I'm still going through a "engagement breakup" and I don't want to put you guys through her dumb bulls**t! So, start throwing out some ideas. If next weekend is cool, let me know. If not, let me know when would be a good time for you. Hope to hear back from you guys and gals soon, later!

Alright BUCKEYES, it's almost riding season here in Ohio, as soon as this f**king bs weather passes through. I'm still wanting to get togather sometime and ride...I was thinking about maybe hooking up, going to Brothers, QS&L, wherever having a few drinks or jet grab a bite to eat and talk about everyones ideas as far as doing a group ride, etc. Anyone interested?

what bike nights do you guys go to? I have some friends in columbus that go to Quaker Steak. i might go to a couple of those this year. I normally hit up Jackass Flats, Quaker Steak in beavercreek, and Lonestar in Springfield. I heard that hooters has one on Thursday nights on miller lane.

I go to QS&L every now and then, yeah, they have sportbikes, but like 90% of the bikes that are there for their bike nights are choppers, Harleys, etc...I was talking to my new neighbor and he said that the QS&L in Beavercreek has more sportbikes at the bike nights than Columbus does??? Oh, and Welcome to THE forum Balamien! I'd definately like to get togather for a ride! This weather here in Ohio is really pissing me off, lol. Today, so far, it has rained, hailed, sleeted, snowed, windy as hell...and it's almost May, WTF?! Anyways, you guys/gals want to set something up for June? If the weather starts getting better before then, we can set something up then, so I guess just figure out when you can take a day off, weekend, whatever, throw out some ideas and we'll set a date.
