I'm keeping it a surprise. It's a bike people know on these forums, I'll leave it at that. 

 

Thought you'd start those bike reveal threads and then get off scot free eh? 

if i was "what" what would i do, what thats.. a cbr with ohlins..... sounds delicious i guess and already sprung for similar weight :) 

i wish more and more peeps would do "GMNB" threads so they forget the first asshat one forever hahaha

Part of ride through 536 

Maybe I'm just not familiar with the sound of your bike but it sounds like your running at a fairly low RPM range. Is it just me that rings my bikes neck on roads like this? I'm usually running between 5k and 8k on a bike the red lines at 10.5k. Even though the big girl has the power to pull from down low i like to keep my rev up, just feels like I have better control that way.

yea this is still low for this bike, around 6-7. To get more boost i should be up in the 8-10 range. The sound on this recording doesnt do justice to the bike. The "whine" of this triple is both futuristic-sonic speed kinda awesome and annoying at the same time. I really need to get used to that and also go one gear down and get over it and forget the sound. (or put in a ridiculously low offer on an exhaust on ebay and see if it bites lol )  Completely different from my previous bike. every time i learn one bike and get used to it i end up jumping ships. :(

Been there. I had a friend lowside his Buell on 556 and he had the stones to blame me for it. I was easily a few corners ahead of him. Said it was my fault because I was going too fast.

Fuck that guy. We aren't friends no more.  

You and his right hand had such a connection he couldn't change speed.

This is why I don't like to lead and why I tell anyone I ride with, new or old, " If I ride too fast for you, I'll meet you at the next turn. If I ride too slow, wait for me at the next turn." I ain't got nuthin to prove except that I can make it to the end of a ride to go back home in 1 piece.
