Theres a new movie coming out with Nicholas Cage called Ghost rider. Looks like its going to be pretty good. But theres another guy who has been Ghost Rider for several years. No one really knows who the guy is, but he has been making motorcycle videos for years in France. He dresses in all black riding a black motorcycle. Every day at the same time on the same road in France, he goes out and tries to get the Police to chase him. Coarse he films the whole thing. There was rumore one time that the original Ghost rider had been killed in an accident and a friend of his took the saddle in his place to keep his legacey alive. Here are some vids of the Ghost rider. and a photo. The original Ghost Rider and the new have never been caught. The Final Ride video is rumored to be a tribute to the original Ghost Rider with a compilation of his video clips. But still, his death is a rumor.

Hey Jerry, is that a "jinxer" in that photo? I think it looks like the '05 1000 GSXR but I could be wrong.

Tail section, dead give away. The 05 and 06 GSXR 1000s have a new design (link below). The picture above is an 03 or 04 GSXR 1000

Hey Jerry. Are you going to answer the other thread where I invited you to go to Jazz Fest. We're thinking of riding bikes. My little brother has a GSXR 1000 and I'll use his other Susuki TL1000. The comment on the GSXR reminded me. My brother spins yarn about that bike every time I call him. Is it really that awesome. He says it is.

Ok I'll add another ticket on my order for you. they are 30 dollars. I'll cover you if your low on funds. My little brother wants to ride bikes to it. Do you have yours ready. He has a GSXR1000 and I'll use his other Susuki TL1000. I'm coming with a guy who has a bike as well. not sure what type but its a supersport crotch rocket as well. what do you think.

Didn't you say you had another bike. Rather than try to get my brothers (a 4 and half hour drive) I could use your second hand bike. You and my brother have the same bike. Is it as bad as he says. He goes on and on about how kick ass the 06 GSXR 1000 is.

Yeah that bike is all that. I can get in 3rd gear run it up to 90mph pump the throttle and stand the bike straight up. No clutch, just throttle pump. Thats with stock sprockets. I'm going down one tooth on the front sprocket friday. That will give me even more jerk to it. I got the motor for the flooded bike, but I haven't got it mounted yet. I have to buy new wheel bearing, neck, and swingarm seals. I got to change all the electronics in it. Salt water turned everything to powder. That bike is months from being finished. Thats why I was just going to set that one up for the track. That way I could bypass a lot of electronics and requirements to make it street leagal again.
