Why are you here so late?
Doing the work at home thing because I need to help my wife bring the dog to the vet and I'll be bringing the new (to me) bike home today.

Ning Peeps. The alarm went off, I hit it, and jumped out of bed like a firecracker had gone off!

Must have been dreaming. Lots of  [coffee] here. I will save a cup for Bick.

Thanks M! [thumbsup]

More Ning, all.

It's all in the grind, Sizemore. Can't be too fine, can't be too coarse. This, my friend, is a science. I mean you're looking at the guy that believed all the commercials. You know, about the "be all you can be." I made coffee through Desert Storm. I made coffee through Panama while everyone else got to fight, got to be a Ranger.

i love coming into work and being bombarded before i even take off my jacket.


in other news. i realized i have been riding quite assholishly lately. some might call me a bit of a hoolie.

i wheelie at random times, i go way too fast, i'm not happy with a turn unless i have at least doubled the suggested speed.
and i'm laughing the whole time.

all on a sport touring bike with the hard bags on while wearing good gear.  ;D

That is completly unacceptable.  If you are going to ride assholishly, do it in shorts and t-shirt, teva's.  No helmet so all can see your face, so they know wiho it is that is so cool! [evil] 8) ;D

The KTM is home, I'll go back out and take pics once it stops pouring out.
Thing did 90 without me even realizing I was going that fast.
The "gauges" are funny, it really isn't much more fancy than those little digital speedometers you can get for a bicycle. The display doesn't even come up until the bike is moved.  [laugh]

I've been wanting to for quite awhile. Don't worry, you know if you eventually get one again, I'll still be into it.  [thumbsup]

If the 999 sells I'm looking hard at a Husaberg FS-570 to replace it with (with spare set of dirt wheels)

Is the speedo setup as minimal on your KTM?

Yep, just a MPH readout and some idiot lights.

You can add a tach pretty easily if you want, but I just learned to shift by ear/feel.

If you hit the limiter, shift ;D
