Tiagra crankset installed. Just needs a slightly longer stem to be really comfortable. I am a little cramped in the hoods.
Overall... I really like this bike. The Mavics really livened it up. I need to put more seat time in on this beauty.
I had a deposit on it. It is in Milwaukee and I didn't have the motivation to fly out and bring it home. It is a nice bike and the 2015 I rode last month was fast and nimble. I just couldn't get excited about it enough to justify the purchase.
The more I slept on the Yamaha, the less in love with the idea I was. I already have a very nice touring bike. I needed to replace the FZ6 with something more suited for hooliganism. The Hyper was priced right, so I took it for a spin. I decided I had to have it. So.. no, it is not a Yamaha.
300 zoomy miles on the Hyper. I am going to get in serious trouble on that bike. It invites irresponsible behavior and then rewards the shit out of it.
I don't like ringing doorbells without being expected. It gives me anxiety, because not everyone is on my schedule. I do not want to cause stress for someone's home. Home should be free from anything you have not invited.
The Chipper Dipper is a 5 gallon pale filled half way with water, which has floating bird seed on top. Squirrel climbs ramp, falls into bucket, struggles for its poor little, pathetic life until it eventually tires and drowns.
