Donnie at DucPond demanded that I demo the Hyper on Saturday.  Fun bike for sure, even on cold tires and cold pavement.  That is all.

I don't believe that's really you on the Hyper:

Only because I haven't chimed in.  I have a huge c*ck.  I have boomtubes.  I ride with flip-flops, shorts, wife beater and a steel bucket for a helmet.  I shift late and rev often particularly in front of cafes and old folks homes.

You should see me on the monster!  6'4" 270 pounds (and dropping).

My junk is hidden in the shadow and Donnie made me leave my steel bucket, flip-flops, and shorts in my truck.

OK now it makes sense...    ;D  For a minute, I thought I was competely off on the Hyper because it seemed larger when I saw it and you made it look like a jr dirtbike...

Rode a Hyper S the other day and now I hate my bike. I wish I hadn't done it.

Dangler: I want to see picture of you on the Monster  ;D

Not the greatest pic - out with my niece's flat stanley.



And for Somegirl, I do have on all my gear.....

I'm 6'4" too, and I usually stick with the "Circus Bear on a Tricycle" analogy.

I think I'm going to start a poll to see if it's worthy to start a poll,  [laugh]  for "people here under 6'+  200lb+". 

I'm guessing: 7 (me being 1). That's with dusty, somegirl & ducmouse included. 


If they will ever allow a Ducati football team... We (actually you guys) have it wrapped up  [thumbsup]


Just playin'   


But seriously, I bet it's fun to ring the neck out of a S2R100... Hell, or anything for that matter when you can break the bars off at any moment.  [evil]

:)



I promise to make better mistakes tomorrow.
