Once I found out how much wheel weights are ($40 for 6 sticks) and it costs the shops $2.50 ish to get rid of used tires or that is what they charge me.

If a Bike isn't comfortable to me in stock form I am not spending money to make it as comfortable as older busa would be.. do the same thing to a 06-07 busa and I would be even more comfortable. Plus I like the look of the older busas a bit better, mainly the tail.

I can change them in Cincy.. If you can bring them to me. I can do them in about an hour for $25. I need to get some more weights from Quentin..

I would say it is a good inch farther.. My back hurts just sitting on it.. Every magazine article says the same thing too. But a 06-07 Busa with heli bars some soft luggage, tail bag, and a tank bag and I got me a tourer.. Easily log 700-1000 a day on one of them. throw some Brick tires and slab all over.

Why aint you coming down to Nashville with Marydeth?

Not me. I would find a used 2006-2007 Red busa. can't remeber which one had a the dark maroon paint (like the 06 750). I can't ride the new 08 Busa. Way to long of a reach to the bars.

Good luck. If I could get that out of mine I might sell mine to get a Busa.

Change the oil on a RM 250 :lol That is funny...

We knew it was you... Girls can't ride that slow.

The only 3 crashes I have been remotely hurt on was 2nd day on my first bike (clipped brake light of a ranger parked on the street trying to make a U-Turn after seeing the neighborhood road wasn't finished) Hit my outside knee on the engine so hard I jarred the knee cap loose (never went to the hospital) 2nd and 3rd are same crash situation. Left lane of traffice backs up, me in the right lane has clear shot, so as I continue someone coming other direction makes left turn through backed up traffic without creeping out to look. T-bone time.. First one I hit a mini van and the bike never pivoted so i ramed my hip into the tank then continued over just landing on the other side of the car. 3rd was a Malibu I think and bike pivoted and I was launched about 30-40 ft from impact, and lost conciousness on this one.

Wasn't bleeding (don't think even internally luckily) but all I could see was the dang roof. I remeber saying to meyself looking at the roof "First ride and I can't even see out the window :mad:" Though I was shocked how fast we got to the Hospital... 5 minutes for a 35 minute drive.. I remember all the nurses in the ER acting stunned. When they got the call a Motorcycle accident was coming in they started getting towels, sheets ready.... When I showed up still dressed in my Ballistic Mesh jacket and dress slacks they were thanking me up one side and down the other for having gear.

Just stoopid i guess. Even an air care flight didn't phase me.. I was like Ooh finally get a ride in a Chopper.

Don't bet on it... MY KX250F is plenty. Hell it does 30 mph at least in first gear. It is all I would ever want in a dirt bike. Yes i go 200+

I was like I am now. Wrecks don't phase me.

1 2001 1 2003 2 2006 currently Betwen the 2003 and 2006 I had another 98 CBR 900 that was all custom (160 rwhp), Carbon Fiber body,

I was expecting $2.00 get me a coffee and some doughnuts...

I was curious when I got the Cannot be displayed errror this morning.

First bike was a 93 Yamaha Seca II 600 red. Rode it 2k miles wrecked twice, once 2nd day I had it, and 2nd time was clutch stuck a bit and (using a lot revs to keep from stalling) flipped it. After 2k miles moved up to a 97 TL-1000S Had that for a year then got my favorite bike ever 98 CBR 900rr Black w/ red tiger stripe. Then moved on to CBR 929 then to the GSXR 1000s.

See ya tonight...

Just the attitude she had I knew it was going to happen....Just started getting knee down, and when the group of bikers went by as we were regrouping at the end of the road. She turned around and took off after them. I had to catch up twice as the corner I caught up I had the rear spin up on me mid corner and had just caught back up again before she went down. 3rd wreck in 4 months too.

I made the ride in... Threw a pair of wind breaker pants over the slacks and was good... Will get to do a practice launch on the bike in work lot... So far I guess I am right at a 2.0 high 1.9 60 ft.

It isn't just men... I know I had to watch a friend slide in a ditch then Dodge HER GSXR 1000 as it dug in and came head high at me on the exit of a corner in NKY... Luckily I saw what was going on and saw no cars coming and had already moved into the other lane for more space. Could I be just as happy on a 250 maybe, but I can guarantee that I would have that 250 begging mercy after a day on it...

That and in any set of twisties I can leave it in 3rd or 4th dang near any cornere except the sub 30 mph corners and still have all the power I need on the street. That and riding on the highway in 6th gear and need to get out quick I can still leave it in 6th and out acclerate most cars. I look at my 1000 as an easy street bike since I don't have to work it hard to have my fun... But I do race a 1000 and jeesh what beast on the track (yes I still get passed by guys on 600s and always will).

We thought you were used to it by now...

Well most of these guys are using the rear brake so they use the same method left or right leg to get their inside foot exactly where they want it for each corner. At the lean angles they are doing this move at, their bike will not lose the front. They will more then like flip over. The GP guys are braking harder then most street riders do straight up and down at 20-30 degrees of lean angle.
