Any M50 owners in the Atlanta area? - Motorcycle-Journal Forums

that1mexguy · 02-27-2006, 10:32 PM

Hey guys, I'm a new M50 owner and a complete nooooooooob when it comes to everything there is about riding and bikes in general. This is my 1st bike and sadly I'll admit I don't even know how to change the oil or do any maintenance on it. Anyway, I was wondering if there were any Atlanta people that will be interested in getting together in the future (once the weather improves) for cruising around, and perhaps as mentors to noooooobs like me

hehe. I'd like to personalize it but I am so afraid of messing something up. Anyway, hope there are plenty of you out here and talk to you soon!

That1mexguy. I'm on the other corner of the continent from you so I'm no help as a riding companion, but welcome all the same. If you take the time to explore the forum, many basic and more involved aspects of maintenance and mods have been detailed in steps with support of pictures. Your manual can provide detailed steps for many other mechanical issues. Over time, you may be pleasantly surprised with what you're willing to take on with your bike. Great choice for a first bike, best choice in colour

. Enjoy the forum!

Hey that1mexguy. Congratulations. I've had my m50 blk for about a year now. I love it. I don't live in Atlanta, but I work in Alpharetta every week. Since I rent cages instead of bikes, I'm not much help for a ride. But I'd love to come out and see it sometime.

I'm not too far from you guys. I'm about 30 miles east of Birmingham. If any of you ever come over this way, let me know.

I live right down the road from "29 Dreams Motorcycle Resort";

I'm also only a couple of miles from the Barber Raceway. This is worth the trip over. This place is unbelievable; http://www.barbermotorsports.com/

PM me if any of you ever plan to head over this way.
