Great find, Clinton! That is one sick 919. There is an article in the current Cycle World (I think it is) about it - a bunch of trick bits not esily discerned from the casual glance. Roland, an ex 250 AMA racer, is an out of the box designer for sure. Not the same old recycled custom chopper stuff. And for a good cause too!!!

I will be putting up another thread about what we have cooking for the end of April to raise awareness about the Ride July 22 - Mark that date down!!!

My only street legal bike right now is the DRZ. It would be great to see a big DS contingent from rideforum come down en masse for the event. :P

Holy crap, I would have to pack a lunch to get there. :lol:

Sounds like fun though, I wouldn't mind doing it, may tag along with you if you plan on riding also.

I always like to do a bit of "due diligence" before donating or volunteering for a charity. So many "charities" line the pockets of the staff / founders. This one (Pediatric Brain Tumor Foundation) gives 85% of the money collected toward research, etc. That is an extremely large precentage.

:D

I hope I can make it.

Here is the info I found:
