Yeah!!!!!

Iiinteresting, I'd be scared to death of flipping it as it stands right now. Has potential though.

My mom always said I was handsome

Re Bike $ = check out all this sick stuff I got. Girl $ = broke and can't figure out why

lol that's the ugliest thing I've ever seen . . . today

Gotcha, $10 is worth the piece of mind not waiting for it

Wait, did you factor in sales tax?

Wait a second, who started this thread again? This smack talk fails.

Congrats Mr. Anderson, sounds like you're making up ground fast. Hate to say it, but learning how to do the twisties without lots of motor is the right way to go. You won't regret starting out on that 250. Heck, if you lived closer to those roads you probably could keep it another year.

Just playin since they're a new sponsor. I'm debating on what to do with the Shinkos on my R6, didn't let me down this weekend but still considering a replacement for next season. As often as I drive by Iron Pony that would be awfully convenient to get tires there.

plug plug plug

Do it! But you can't have my bike now, I needz it

BWAHAHA! That is one of the best Chuck jokes, can't give you rep right now unfortunately

I see your nunchucks and raise you lightsabers

Glad to have you back MJ, wondered what happened to ya! +100 to boy shorts

I always just take my jacket with me. Sometimes I drive to the mall and wear my jacket anyway, that's right ladies I know what you're thinkin and you're right "I may or may not own a motorcycle."

Love the paint, I even like the Kanji on the side (don't know what it says though). Have to say it. . . if you're worried about sitting flat footed on the bike you might want to look at another style. If you can tiptoe on even one foot then you're good. Lowering a bike messes with the handling A LOT. You might not notice it if you're just starting out, and that's usually when people worry about touching flat footed. Anyway, my $.02. /end rant.

Lolz, you gave me 1 rep. That tickled Srsly though, if he tries to pass you hit his kill switch and whoolie past him! Yutt UgghhH!

Forgot to include another highlight. There were two other orange shirts out there early on. One on a KTM and the other on an R1. They were both being pulled around by 1 instructor. I think they went out before us. My instructor and I FLEW around them. That felt pretty good. Got to meet the R1 guy later, cool dude. Couldn't get his butt off the seat though.

My money's on the Yamahahaha

Finally had my first trackday Friday, still coming down Missed the riders meeting first of all. I asked the guy at the tech shed what was going on, I don't think he really knew much about it (wasn't his fault). So about 20 minutes later I started asking around, yeah I missed it, got an instructor anyway. I'm getting on the bike, went through the flags really quick and we were off lol. First 3 laps were really nerve wracking, overthinking and not looking far enough ahead. Right after that we pulled in, rider down and oil on the track. That took at least 30min to clean up. In the downtime I calmed down a bit. Went back out, took the advice, when I thought I was looking far ahead I went farther ahead. Kept upping the pace and told him I want to lead. Keep in mind this was a practice day, so despite the few orange shirts out there we were still in traffic. Yikes! So I lead and immediately felt right at home. Didn't worry about the bumpiness (not as bad as I thought it would be), felt completely comfortable, and totally annihilated my chicken strips. I even got to follow PrettyEye for (almost) a whole lap until she went in. By the end of the day (keep in mind this was evening only, short day) I wasn't getting passed on the corners much (of course I was on the racing line lol) and I would just pick a guy that looked close to my pace and just follow him for a couple laps. Instructors were very helpful. I felt a little pride (had to swallow that quickly, shiny side up and all) when they sounded impressed after following me. Said I didn't really need to work on my form and the only corner I wasn't really getting right was 4, which was a toughie. Funny thing, my first instructor told me I could benefit from just going a little slower around the track. Then I went out with the other instructor, gave him the thumbs up and we went faster. Oops. Awesome day. I have to admit I had thoughts of going back to a Sport Tourer . . . can't do it now. I'm gonna need a second bike because that was way too much fun. Next mod will be a shorter turn throttle, my wrist got really tired of going aaaaaall the way around the handlebar. Pics: Arriving Trying to find the riders meeting Blurry, setting up for sharp right (edit: on second thought, pretty sure this is coming onto the big straightaway) Traffic on the backstraight My buddy couldn't get a good vantage point. These are the best pictures I got. I wish he had gotten me mid corner, definitely felt like I was hanging way off in 3 & 4. Which probably means I was only barely doing it. A special thanks to PrettyEye! Your help was a highlight for the day, it would have been so much rougher without your help. Fin

Isle of Mann riders are men among men, he probably just looked at it funny and it hopped into place out of pure fear

44 in waist? If I ever ride with you I'm bringin harpoons (just playin man haahahaa)
