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.

Love the zip tie license plate fasteners on the Matrix.  Grin  Just kidding. The bike is beautiful. It'll be interesting to hear your opinions as to the differences between the two bikes.

Yep. Just let us know. We've got fast, medium & slower riders and everyone has been around lots of those turns. Everyone wants to have fun but most everyone will help out too. Just say "hey, I need to be a bit slow" and we'll work it out. I have gone slower many times to show those behind me the best line, or at least what I think is the best line, through some turns. It's all about  [moto].  waytogo

i can attest to this! Mac has always been really good about it. i'm the slow poke.

You two did all that stuff together didn't you? Not so much time together I bet as not enough time together doing good fun stuff. No argument that you gotta work on the house but you gotta get out too!

just got back from Maui. took a ride up too Haleakala crater (in a car sadly) and oh boy is that a beautiful road. its like 20 miles of tantalus  drool only with faster hairpins. even the asphalt was new and smooth.  i really need to go back with my  [moto]  848.

true, you're so wise. i guess we should get back into hiking and doing together stuff. esp since come july he's going back to a boat. his schedule will be different and i don't know what to expect. once his 6 mons deployment hits, then i'll have plenty of me time.

he did go to see fast 5 with some friends. it was so late on sunday night, there wasn't much to do. i ended up sewing curtains.  at least it was a quiet relaxing night. Roll Eyes

All is well agen ... I did have a bike stole from my house in between 5-10pm last Saturday. but once I became firm in my stand that i wasn't responsible. (the customer within the first day wanted me to go out and buy him a new bike out of pocket) and that only firmed up my thought that he had stolen his own bike and was trying to do some kind of a insurance scam. So once i told him I would not be buying him a new bike and any further contact would need to go through an attorney. surprise surprise he found his bike like 2hrs after i told him to Attorney up.

So in a overview... customer dropped bike off at 4:30pm Saturday, and said bike was stole within a hr of drop off time. And once i said somethings funny and attorney up. the said bike was found within 2 hrs of that last statement.

Tested a BMW 325i Sedan with SMG, K&N hi flo filter and headers ... guy don't race.. guy wants just to say 'I have this and have that..'

Came to shop stating that car had a missfire that didn't have last Saturday ... Misteriously during our long weekend a header showed up in the engine bay ... and with it this 'missfire' ...

I told guy after road test, you want heades, live with this 'missfire' ... He forgot to purchase something to tell ECU that more air is coming in and going out ...

Plus SMG is taking very loooooooooooooooooooooooooong to shift 1-2 3-4 ... I wonder ...  Huh?
