This n00b ride business sounds dangerous. Two for two...

What happened?

Bad bad things.

And the sugar fountain fairy swore so hard when she came to super-size that stale hope soybean; liiiike a homeless German woman. Who is this super-sizing spirit-crushing femme? And tell her I'll break a tree root up in her shrimp.

Being faster than you thought possible…it feels good. No, screw that—it feels like shotgunning a gallon of adrenaline and chasing it with an all-night orgy aboard a burning Viking boat.

No worries, glad I found the right turnoff the main road to get there.  I know the other Italian Aprilia rider had no idea what he was getting into when he met up with us and I was shocked at the skills of the chap on the sport tourer with bags installed.

Just to clear up any confusion, Randy was out with us on his Dorsoduro and we ran into another guy who was on a Shiver (the "other" Aprilia rider that was mentioned).  The guy on a sport tourer who was tearing it up 211 was on the Concours, and he really could move that thing around.   waytogo

I rode the Dorso today..got the forks back from Traxxion Dynamics...Not sure if it feels 1252.00 better, but def lighter and got rid of the horrible chattering I had on hard braking from getting into the lower part of the progressive springs.  Going from a .48 to .90 spring and baddass AK-20 track spec cartridges..it did make a big difference.

That price is a deal since they used my forks as R&D so I paid for just the parts.  They picked up the labor, oil ect costs.
