What red key?


« on: June 10, 2008, 05:36:49 PM »

 . . . .  looks kinda odd to me.  There's a rear cowl and belly pan, but no front fairing (or ferring as they called on CL) or front fender.  It's weird because there's more visual weight on the back.  It reminds me of a dude who's bald, but still keeps that ring 'o hair on the sides and back.

lol  At least it isn't reminiscent of a comb-over.

I think it works. lot of neg space in the rear w/the low pipes, and the lower bit to the seat cowl make a nice visual line. and the absence of bright red up front helps lend to that line

Comb over . . . now that's funny laughingdp laughingdp laughingdp

I do like that negative space thing, though.  I think when i get those DP pipes, I'm going to get the lows; then put on the short CF tail that Teddy hasn't put on his bike yet.

Don't lose hope. He waffles. Make him an offer he can't refuse. We all know how good looking those Arrows are, especially on red bikes.

No modification goes unpunished. Memento mori.  Good people drink good beer.  Things happen pretty fast at high speeds.

It's all up to your will level, your thrill level and your skill level.  Everything else is just fluff.

True dat.  R-Lo, you must buy Teddy's Arrows!  If not, I will put a DMPI on your house.   Evil

A DMPI?  I am totally ignorant. Whatever it is don't be putting one on my house.

You know, I never quite thought about it from that angle...  But what do you think the insurance company would say to a claim like that?  "my house was damaged due to high order of detonation..."

If you could get it to burn you could get it covered under the fire insurance.  Merely blowing it up likely would not be covered. Make sure to order the napalm in the strike.  Grin  Ah, napalm in the morning. Smells like victory.
