Ive tried setting up bike via the "by the book" method and it never works. Ive set sag and made adjustment do what the so called experts say and always end up hating it. In the end you have to set it up by what feels good to you and the type of riding and roads your on. I know this is a track thread and i'll probably get flamed for this post but you can't always go by the book. I like my set up stiff and harsh and most would say its garbage, but those same folks might have issue hanging with me on the same tarmac. And vise versa, some have bike set up that feel like shit to me but they might ride circles around me. You want the fastest set up and want to knock off lap times. Take that shit to the track. On the street set that bitch up for real world riding.

I was happy with it. That was our trip out west tire. Wasn't railing on them as hard as usual though. 4000 is average fro my rear tire. The least I ever got was 1600 in June while running 2up in the deals gap area dragging hard parts with the Mrs. That was an old date code T30

Damn RS3 was the highest miles I ever got on the Connie. About 6000

Verizon's been pissing me off for two decades. But still the best service no matter where I go.

There is a guy on a Indian Forum the drag races a Scout with one of these and says it grabs hard and never lets go.

Meh, i'm relaxed ...now. I've worked 156 hours in the last 15 days. I'm back to 8 hours days now. Hopefully it stays that way for a little bit.

How is that "triggered" more of a "here we go" thought.

Seriously. Can we not bring up the track vs street thing again? There are things I do and want to do(an see)on the street that you can never do or see on the track. There are things you can do on the track you probably shouldn't do on the street. Lets just leave it at that. There are fast guys on the track and fast guys on the street think some track guys need reminded of that every now and then. What we do isn't wrong, what you do isn't wrong. Blas, bla bla...it goes on and on.

This is incorrect. We gits alls the s skillz on da streets... Werd

This is correct

You and my wife are cut from the same cloth.

FTFY

I'm probably in the extreme minority here but I honestly think I look better in the buff than I do with cloths on In the bathroom mirror with nothing my thoughts are " i don't look so bad" soon as i put some shorts on even a shirt my thoughts go the other way. Not sure why I perceive it that way but I have for some time. Hasn't always been the case only in the last couple years.

II track EVERYTHING I eat using my fitness pall app. It keeps me honest to myself. Usually pack about 800-900cal low fat, low to no carb and high protien lunch and snacks for work. That save me the other 600-700 cal for my dinner at home. I take a 32oz gatorade zero with me to work every day and once its gone try to fill it at least 2 or 3 times with water, then grab another gator-zero when i get home. My current daily Macro goals are.. 1500 calories 120g (or more) protein 90g (or less) carbs 75g (or less) fat try to keep fiber up too but don't have a set number for that.

Diet is 95% of what I do to lose. But I have a very active job and I'm on my feet all day long.

Yup, I weigh myself the exact same time once a week. Usually Sunday morning right when I get up after I piss and before I eat or drink anything. Being consistent on this helps me track things more accurately.

Most of my britches are 36" they were getting really tight. Went back to some old 38"s i kept around(from my really fat day)s as throw away pants if I had some really dirty job to do. Now, my 36"s are falling off my ass without my belt clinched tight. But I'm too cheap to go buy all new 34"s.

Dropped 2 belt holes in less than 2 months. Making progress. Back to the lowest one that I was at over a year ago.

Its not Fall yet still have 4 days of summer left

Just send him the price @RidersDiscount

Ummmmmmm...What?

Oh yeah! Welcome to the shit show!!!
