The pirellis that I used to run on my SD (diablo rosso IIs I think) made the bike feel as if it could climb straight up a tree. They didn't last for shit, but the traction was impressive.

I think those were on my S1000R and they impressed the shit out of me.  These are supposed to be better & they are good in the rain too. What short ride it was already favorable.
No modification goes unpunished. Memento mori.  Good people drink good beer.  Things happen pretty fast at high speeds.

Qomomoko

#6301
Cleaned her and installed some fairing I had removed because I intend on replacing/ fixing; my red seat cowl is cracked, the side seat fairing have tabs broken, and the oil pan fairing is missing a support.
Placed my tri-color seat and a good  CF seat cowl.

Still need replace/ fix rear turn signals.
Plan on adding a slipper clutch, nicer break reservoirs and upgrade the headlight lol

02 Monster S4.


GK

Ran an errand so took her out for a spin. Went and visited my brother in law afterwards.

First ride after I replaced the clutch and brake reservoirs and short hoses.

All good.

Perfect timing.  Off and on rain all day over on this side of the island which made it a great day to bleed the brakes on the 1290R.  Fantastic and now have nice, high & tight brakes again front & rear. Both bikes fully ready for action again.  [thumbsup]  [thumbsup]  [Dolph]  [Dolph]

Popped the baffle out of the can on the Hoosky & took it into town & over Tantalus. LOUD!  Louder than the 1290R with the baffle out. Good fun though short shifting to keep it stealth ( sort of stealth ) and alternating blasting it up & down the rev range. Back to home & one blitz run through Norfolk. Baffle back in.

Waited for hours to go home due to the accident on Kaukanahua.
'07 S4RS and '04 998 Matrix.  Because sometimes I feel like a monster, and sometimes I don't.
