Hooknswoop 19 #26 July 19, 2005 The seat hasn't gotten warm from the exhaust, but I can feel the heat coming out of the fairings from the radiator. It is hard to go slow. Derek Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hooknswoop 19 #27 July 19, 2005 QuoteGood. Knowing you I figured you were really doing your homework on the training side of things. That's a good book as well. Ya, he's given me some tips (pre-loading isn't just an RW term), and some things to work on. QuoteHell no! What are you some sort of pussy? It's going to be flat black with chrome maltesse crosses. LOL! What, no skulls with flashing red eyes? QuoteWanna weld up a halo so you can start stunting? No way, not me, not this bike. Those guys ar enotz and fall a lot.

I know some riders about your size that ride similar bikes, a lot of them have really played with their preload to keep the front end on the ground when hammering on it (unless they want to pull the front end up with a shift of their weight). Too bad about you and TX, there are some NICE rides through the hill country that you'd really dig. Its not the mountains, but its very very cool.--"When I die, may I be surrounded by scattered chrome and burning gasoline." Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
