Hello All ,
My name is Rich and I am from York, PA Was wondering if there is anyone from the area. I just picked up a 1990 gs500e and I am doing some work on it. It has the airtech fairings on it ( but they are totally rashed). Also who ever own this bike musta did alot of racing , there are safety wires everywhere and its been jetted bored and revalved. For a 500 this thing has some kicki to it. I am presently sanding down the frame, painting the tank and seat cowlings. Also the handlebars were removed and clips installed. The starter clutch kept slipping ( crank bolt would not stay tight) that prob is gone but the crankcase cover is cracked and neds replaced. Overall this bike has its death and I am going to try to bring it back to life. i plan on having it done before spring , so if there are any riders from the area like tomeet ya and hook up for riding in the spring

Well come back! :icon_mrgreen: Every year I post about this rally and every year none of you come :dunno_white:
This is one of the largest rallys on the east coast! COME! I will even provide some beer and food at my place one evening :thumb:
That sounds interesting. If I'm still in NY then I'll head down. I can pick up some foodz if you have a grill. :cheers:
Is my EX250 riding neighbor welcome? :icon_mrgreen: :icon_razz:
Everyone is welcome :thumb: Its well worth the trip :cheers:
Seems like a lot of PA Riders here.. (myself included - Pittsburgh), would it be alright if I advertised the address of a forum I'm tryin to start up targeting Western PA Riders? I just started it last week, and am trying to populate it. It's not my goal to take members away from here, but to try and localize some riders. Who would I talk to about that?
Thunder in the Valley looks sweet! Lookin' into it!
With 225,000 bikes in town, where does one stay for less than $1,000 a night? :o
They have campgrounds set up EVERYWHERE! The Cambria County fairgrounds are converted into a campround for thousands of people.
If you are interested in comming I can check into hotels/campgrounds for ya :thumb:
Yeah, I'll come down and drag at least one guy with me, schedules permitting. If you know of a good area without lots of drunkeness/rowdiness that would be great. :laugh:
Geep did you check out the website? I think that the Cambria County fairgrounds would be a good place if you want to camp. Its a bit out away from all the madness :icon_mrgreen:
Hello from the Coal Regions of PA :)

What's going on in July?
I'm Pittsburgh sadly.. I just read this thread today.. sorry I missed your rally Scott, but um.. I had to wash my hair.. O0 Anyway Hello
Another riding season is upon us. :woohoo:
Just letting you know I'm here. I'm up in Buffalo, but I'm totally up for a jaunt to PA for some riding. PA is a GREAT place to ride! (in the summertime!) Gimme a holler if you don't mind an old guy hanging around. I don't mind riding in a group, as long as we keep a safe distance and not ride like we're in a parade. Not my thing, know what I mean?
DuBois, PA here
