Hey guys, finally got my bike (I'll put up an intro thread soon), but I've seen a red monster around Pupukea a few times, going both up and down the hill.

Anybody on here?

Busted you huh? Guilty as charged.

But who's busted here, the tatted tank top wearing hooligan in a red hat riding the red monster, or the guy trying to hide a white Ducati in a pack of Yamaha dirt bikes?

Aloha Shieldze.  Congrats on the new bike. You were looking fine!

Bahaha touche! Thanks man, the Dual Sport is actually mine also.  My buddy was riding it to see if he wanted to buy it (which he is now).   

I figured "Pupukea" would narrow it down, not too many duc's up this way.  You live up there?

[DRKWNG]

No, just booty call.

Saw someone on what looked like a new red M696/796 last week, making a left out of Haleiwa on Kam highway, then pulling a u-turn about 1/4 mile down the road.  Looked brand new!

Do you ever see the older, red Super Sport with all the stickers on it in that lot? I remember seeing it there at least twice a week or so way back when...

the shiny one with the corse fairings? or the old, looking beat-to-crap one?

either way, nope. not for the past few years

[DRKWNG]

The one with the Corse fairings.  That thing was nice...

[teddy037.3]

yes it was... one of the SY higher-up officers owned that one, according to my friend

Saw Majdi going up the Pali towards town as I was coming down the hill.  I figure you guys had touch & go with the rain. Heck the road up to the tunnels was dry but totally wet & shiny from the top of 13 turns down to the bottom of 13 turns and then all dry on Norfolk.

I ran through Norfolk and 13 turns before heading home.  While 13 turns was wet, traction wasn't bad...so long as I stayed clear of the debris.  Ironically enough, after bashing the idea of going around the island during the daytime, we ended up riding all the way through the North Shore to Kailua while running away from the rain.
