Another 13+ hour day at work today. That's 4 out of 5 this week and I would have batted 1.000 except that Tuesday is Gloria's and mine mid-week night out and I only worked 12 hrs that day. We have created a monster and I don't know if it's good or bad ........ whew........

Short ride to Ko Olina & back this morning, followed by a mid-cycle oil change for the SF...after that I readied the car for Sunday's autocross...

the on and off ramp to that place can be kind of fun... i hit that up almost every day on my way home. that is if no donkey is in front of me.

BME, all BME.  I'm going to start charging the date night bar tab to the BME credit card.  Stress relief.   laughingdp  Wait, that isn't such a bad idea.   laughingdp

let's see....... regular Sunday chores -- laundry & grocery shopping.  Bought & installed a new toilet seat twice (didn't get the right design the first time  bang head ) -- Rode the Pegoretti 15 miles, including one lap around Norfolk --- Adjusted the valves on the 240D -- some other stuff too but nothing to do with motorcycles.

UHM ... I'd say, you'd like to do the track on a SM ... One leg down, drifting through the corners and then a small jump, hit the esses then that dreaded right, two gears down, hold clutch in, give a bit of gas, let clutch out, leg down through out the right hander ... repeat as needed ...

Or?

Went to SSHD and looked at the 749 they have there 04 1400 miles and $9900 price tag.
Then strolled over to SSD and looked at the 999s they have with 4k miles and 11k price tag.

On a side note the white 848 EVO had a sold sign on the seat.
