I plan to list the Federal Gov't. as a dependent on my next 1040 tax filing!

I have flying honey badgers and I'm not afraid to use them!

The fact that flame throwers exist is proof that someone somewhere said "I'd sure like to set those people over there on fire but I'm just not close enough to get the job done."

CONFIDENCE: the feeling you have right before you understand the situation.

Almost every day, I get someone asking me how fast it goes. I say, "Well I haven't really gone over 90 but I think it can do about 120." I just shrug it off because for me it isn't about how fast the bike gets but rather the technical excellence which makes riding it a dream.

I used to get that question all the time when I first got the bike. My canned response was "I have not idea. Haven't been able to hit the top speed yet."

I've had people ask the same thing about my old Monster, and now the 999.

I usually shrug and say "I haven't been past 147... But she'll do more!"  [evil]

I love the drop-jaw looks!   ;D

I find it disturbing that you're imagining me in a sauna, never mind the teletubbie aspect of it

Had a mid 40's (my best guess) quite attractive blonde woman stop and just keep repeating "that such a beautiful bike" as I parked in Old Town last night, she then went on to tell me she has a 2005 Katana.  After dinner another middle aged couple had a similar reaction as I was gearing back up.
