  1. Yes 5000 miles on my Q2 rear. Best guesstimates; I've run about 1000 miles on the sides, and 4000 on the center. Theres about 1000 miles of commuting left, and about 1000 miles of sides left. I have a 70 mile round trip highway commute to school six times a week, hence high miles without a lot of wear. Also its about 30 miles to hit the KY backwoods, so each trip down there is still a lot of miles! They rack up when you ride everyday
  2. Pirelli Angel STs are great for twisties for being a sport-touring tire. Excellent in the rain and you can expect well over 7000 miles on the rear. Best in the rain from my experiences. BT-016s don't last a damn compared to anything else I've used. Q2s are IMO the stickiest tire to price ratio. I've got a little over 5000 miles on the rear, guessing about 1000 more. Front is half used. I'll be getting these again.
  3. That bodywork would look pretty awesome with some paint.
  4. Oh man I'm so stoked to go ride in Rhode Is---*fack* we're in Massachusetts already. On topic: I've found roads I enjoy in every state I've rode in thus far.
  5. Sorry to hear about your bike mang! You just got that thing!
  6. Yea the wave rotors definitely help if its kept intact.
  7. Take a left kidney? Listening to one of these blip and growl into a corner, eager to be unleashed and thunder down the straight at Mid-Ohio was enough to put one of these on my 'Will own someday' list. I was left yearning for more soundly reverberations to be felt in my chest! GLWS!
  8. I stayed at Tail of the Dragon Vacation Rental's Ridge house, it was fantastic. Enough space with couches and beds for 18 people! HUGE garage, plenty of space. You do need reservations pretty far in advance, but well worth it, not enough praise. I'll most definitely be heading back down to NC this summer, more than once if I can do it!
  9. See you guys on Killboy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
  10. Heading out in the morning!! Come visit us and stay for a night or two! I'm so excited!
  11. Gahhhhh going down on monday!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I am so excited!
  12. Wow man! Glad you had on all your gear! Sorry about the bike mate! They can be fixed!
  13. Man that satin silver/grey looks great with everything blacked out. Theres a wheel under that fender? Damn that thing is slammed to the wheel!
  14. Congrats mate! Riders Discount has a PIMP ASS Daytona 675 they track. And Michigan is pretty sweet too! My family had a house near Traverse City for almost 50 years. Just sold it a few months ago.
  15. This was in Turn 7 end of the back straight wasn't it? Best wishes mate.
  16. Do you have a number anywhere on your bike? I caught a guy all black/grey Joe Rockets with black/white/little bit of red shoei, on an all black bike. Huuuuge silver muffler. Don't think I got you. We did have a camera running almost every Intermediate session with the exception of session 4 or 5. I'll eventually get the videos up!
  17. I got quite a few pictures of Intermediate starting about session 3 or 4. Let me know what you were riding/wearing I can look through em all.
  18. It is now. Bow-chicka
  19. Some guys and I are renting a house down near the Gap (off NC143 near lake Santeetlah) from June 13-17th. Couple of the guys are no longer able to go, so its opened up some beds! The house has the necessities; full kitchen, bathroom, bedrooms and living room. It also has a massive pole barn with pool, ping-pong, hot tub etc etc. We've got 4 (one cruiser and three sportbikes) currently. Ride on down if you're interested! We'll be grilling out almost every night!
  20. Light the gas and I bet your finger won't hurt anymore. Maybe the whole hand, but not your finger!
  21. Was worth a shot. The dates were close, I was thinking there might be some leeway. Thanks for the rep!
  22. I'll be at the dragon renting a house starting the 13th and heading back on friday the 17th. We've got plenty of open beds if you are able to stop by while we're there.
