Met a guy on a silver C14 with yellow LEDs on his front intake vents (turn signal lights?) on Emmerson Rd heading out towards Wickham Rd in Palm Bay, FL this morning. I was on my Red Honda CRF heading the same direction. If you're on this site, you had some nice mods on your C14! Perhaps we could ride the coast some time or meet up for lunch in the area.  8)

I was riding on U.S. 50 East heading to Tahoe vicinity of Echo Summit and spotted a '10 blue C14 headed in the opposite direction.  Passenger on the back and a top case.

By the way, thank you for riding with your brights on during the day and blinding me.

Monday morning the 15th of August around 0715 I saw a blue or black C14 in the HOV lane on I-95 or 395 just south of DC.  I wasn't smart enough to use the HOV lane until you went by, then I gave chase but you had already exited.  I was surprised that this was my only C14 sighting in the 2300 miles of my trip.

Spotted a 2008 Neutron Silver C14 yesterday, he was eastbound riding with a cruiser on I-84 near NY/CT border. I was on a blue 2010 going westbound.

Hmmm, we were riding in that area at that time but not on Rte 6

It might be you I've been seeing on occasion when I feel like testing the I-5 traffic. White '08.

White, eh?    Who did the paint, that is my second choice when it's time to freshen things up.  I'll be on the lookout, I am usually South bound from hiway16 to Ft Lewis from 7-730ish and North bound from 1630ish.  I also saw a black '09 headed south on the 5 about 1635, thanks for the wave :)  I'm starting to think the 14 is gaining in popularity in the Pacific Northwet, although this heat (low 80s) is killing me 8)  Where's the rain?  I miss you ???

That's the way to suck it up buddy! It was a miserable 63 this morn when I rode in, it's 77 now with a heat index of 79. I hope I can make it home ok.   ;)

Not surprisingly, I spotted quite a few Connies at IMS yesterday for MotoGP practice. Likely even more today when I get there for qualifying around noon.

Yesterday (Saturday) I was in OKC and saw a black or blue Connie on NW Expressway at May Avenue. Bags were off so I didn't realize it was a C14 til I passed going the other way. Who was it?

I saw tons of C14's on Wednesday and Thursday at the Dragon.  Three 2008's, one red 2009, two blue 2010's.  One of the guys was a member on the old forum and hasn't made the jump to this one.

Saw a silver '08 on 49 in Millville yesterday heading east.  Looked like he was headed back from the races at NJMP.  I was on mine headed west.

That might have been me! Red and black Helmet? No top case on mine. I live in Silverdale and head down to Oly to see family quite often. I am a religious waver...
