Flew in from Naha via Narita yesterday/today and I'm beat...

Enjoy walking along the sea wall for me.  I miss diving in Naha, Mida point and Okuma...makes the diving in Hawaii boring!  Have safe travels w/ family and hope to see you soon.

Ducati is the pretty girl that can't walk in heels without stumbling. I still love her.

Added a bit of color to the bike.  Made progress in physical therapy. Had a good ride with the gang today...... Read through a BMW Motorad magazine that Brandon gave to me...... very dangerous reading Dolph

I was on coconut island longer than anticipated and wasn't able to join the ride.  Rick...what changes did you make to your already great looking bike?  I'm glad to hear PT is working out for you...I need to make my appointment for my lower back!

Well, back to my pre-recorded moto-GP race.

Too bad you didn't make it. We needed a fourth!!  As for the changes, well......... you snooze, you loose  cheeky  (minor striping change -- you'll see it)

Good that MotoGP is almost over and effectively over as far as Stoner is concerned. C'mon 2012.

I was there in spirit...trust me, I was a grumpy man for an hour once I realized I couldn't make it...even though I ride my bike everyday, the Sunday meetup is one of the few things I look forward to throughout the week.

Looking forward to seeing your the changes on your bike...want to stripe my wheels?!  I'd ask if you'd help, but w/ my impatience and less that precise hands I'm better off standing in the background!  

As for MotoGP...it's been a boring and unfortunate season... (unduly edited by the moderator  Police) I hope Ducati has created a better bike, for 2012, that's on par with the talented crew and riders they pay.

... Don't post spoilers in a thread without a warning.   

We can stripe the wheels. A lot depends on the tape that is used as far as patience goes.

Sorry about the minor spoiler. I didn't spill all of the beans.  Roll Eyes  Did  you think that it would go any other way with Stoner being on his home track?  It was pretty surprising about the Fiat Yamaha guys though.  boo

That was me that editing Madji's post.  Took out the part where he gave away the result of the race.

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.

I ordered pre-curved stripes from http://www.srsigndesign.com/id5.html a while ago.  I'll bring them by for you to checkout, but I'm open to ordering whatever brand/vendor you recommend since I know you've already done your homework.  

Thanks in advance  chug

Homework?    Me?     You give me far too much credit.   I'm like a stick floating downstream bumping off the rocks as I go.
