GF is in Vegas until tomorrow. Had the house to myself, so it was a kinda boring Saturday night, till my friend says he has an extra ticket to see Back in Black (AC/DC tribute band) at Pipeline. Cool.

Was a great concert, got really close to the stage. AND luckily I brought my earplugs, so I was one of the few who could actually still hear afterward.  [moto]

We had a bar-b-que Sunday eve for a friend returning from Iraq.  Spent the day cleaning bikes. Heard a bunch of bikes go by on the road so I got the Seven out and rode up to the parking lot. Nope. Not a one of our gang in the broadest sense. Almost all R1's.

One of my buddy's had an XKE at the party.  Parking brake, or something,  wasn't set right and after 30 to 40 minutes of sitting it decided to roll downhill into the front of a Chevy van.  Total victory to the Chevy. I bet total loss to the E type. It is excruciatingly painful to look at. No hood, no head lights, no radiator, and I wonder if the frame is still straight.  Cry Cry

Alex and I just got back from seeing Ironman.  Have to say that I really enjoyed it.  All except for the guy in the back row getting a blow job during the film...

That makes me incredibly sad to hear.  I love the way the older E Types looked!  One of the all time classic cars to come out of England.

Wow, I must really be coming down with Teddyitus.  My stomach is a wreck, and now I can't sleep. That's not cool at all.

Out of England? Sure, but come on.... one of the all time classic cars PERIOD! Timeless styling that one.

WTF are you talking about Mac?  That E Type has nothing on a mid '60s Nash Rambler, or the ever popular AMC Pacer!  What's wrong with you people?

Did a couple of passes through snake road and then through Mililani Tech park today on the Daytona.  Then picked up Alex from work, took a scenic drive with the top down and ended things with a really nice sushi dinner. 

Now I'm going to work a couple of coats of wax on the Monster and make it all shiny...

What is this shiny you speak of?  I don't think my bike was shiny even when I picked it up. I'm fairly certain the dirt helps hold the whole thing together.

After a late breakfast this morning I resealed the front master cylinder on the FLHS.  It refuses to bleed properly and we can get no lever pumping --- sometimes it pumps lots of fluid and air out then all of a sudden not much happens and the lever never even hints at getting firm. Spent over two frustrating hours with it and gave up. Will try a new method tomorrow sometime after our ride. bang head bang head

Went down to South Seas and paid a visit to my 999.  Missed it and pictures don't do it justice.

Looked at some CBR1000's. The black HM "S" is still there.  Stopped by Cycle City. No Aprilia Factory Mille R there. Looked at Kawi 600's and their liter bike.  The Buell 1125 is flat out ugly. Worse in real life than in the pictures.  Went over to Cycle Sports and eye'd the GSXR 600. The white one is a girls bike, the blue one is kind of gay with that blue seat and all. That leaves the black one.  You know what? None of all those bikes look as good as a 675......... But my bike looks better  laughingdp

Came home and did a 20 miler on the Pegoretti. Ah, Italian bikes.

I feel all better now.

But my bike looks better  laughingdp

Don't hate!!

It's amazing how therapeutic bike riding can be.
