  1. I wonder if ABS side fairings, handlebar weights, and crash bungs would work?
  2. I'd give you rep for that, but I can't at the moment. Sorry.
  3. How far does a person need to go from applying the rear brake, to skidding, to transitioning to the ground, to sliding. At 55mph. 20 feet? And that still has a good amount of forward motion.
  4. I bit the bullet too. Novice on Saturday, and Intermediate on Sunday. New track, new bike, three years since my last non-wet track day. I'll have the race line worn into my head by the next day. Looking forward to it.
  5. Personally, I'm a fan of having the girlfriend with me, plus a coked up hot stripper trying to liberate a dollar from me by way of her boobs to my face.
  6. I know you don't have a working rear brake either... We're doomed to cartwheel!
  7. There's going to be a collective sigh of relief from all the sheep in the Coshocton area...
  8. Wasn't my question at all. Maybe I should have said, "How the hell do you flipping think that sliding a bike on it's side after slamming the rear brake is a good way to stop?":o
  9. I thought somebody was trying to rationalize a little ghey moment.
  10. Helibars. Even on my Falco I opted for an extra 1 1/2 rise. On the old RSVR the position was even more brutal. Helibar'd that too, and it was fine for a trip to the Dragon and back, plus a good number of passes to make the trip worthwhile.
  11. Just small talk at the bar last night. And that phrase was tossed about several times.
  12. I grew up on Harley's. My brother is even the head mechanic locally, so it's not a Harley bashing attempt. Just heard that many times. Knowing how well a bike slides, and how effective a brake is- just curious why I do keep hearing that.
  13. Honest question. How does a bike slow down quickly by dumping it on it's side?

    My fav restaurant

    Ligonberry Crepes!!! I have seriously gone on a road trip just for an IHOP.
  15. Bogarts! I saw Iggy Pop there, with some new band named Jane's Addiction opening. The good old days...
  16. Rode a tube framed Buell to 145. I don't see any problem taking the Curtiss out for a go...
  17. Get ready for some toasty taint! Should keep it comfortable riding up through December with the heat that bike generates. Enjoy!
  18. Just a guess, but a lot of cumin it too.
  19. That sounds sweet. I'll throw in a good chicken chili.
  20. The 27th is my Birthday, and after waking up around 4pm after eating too much on Thanksgiving- that'd do nicely.
  21. That's exactly the way I like my armadillo!
  22. But I still tore through The Devil Streets of Coshocton at warp Aprilia. I also had a beer or two afterwards. That's all.
  23. Now imagine what he could do on a bike that's designed to turn!
