Yea, I'm not sure if Im doing another bike or not next season. Sold the one I had, it had a great book value and I knew I wouldnt have time to ride it all summer long with the hand surgeries.

Its that or get back into flying a lot more. Tough call. I do really like the Ducati 999 tho

rode for decades without a helmet... I have crashed and been crashed many times but have never had a head injury..... I guess when you are as pretty as me you tend to protect your mug...

No...My kids are grown.. my grand daugthter loves me and I would love to see her grow up but... I have to live my life in a manner that pleases me.... otherwise... I'm no damn good to anybody.

You guys inspired me to take Big Toad's Honda out for a spin. He's got some 600cc Honda cafe racer thingy. Been years since I rode much.

Thing seems about as fast as the old Kaw Mach III I had last. But, I didn't really wring this one out today. Didn't want to have to 'splain why I was doing 70 in a 35 zone to some copper when I didnt have the cycle qual on the license.

Just got back from a thirty minute jaunt. It's a tonic, isn't it? I really enjoyed that.

I may have to go get the cycle qual. I made him a deal; he can use my trailer to go camping if I can ride his bike now and then.

Still smiling.

My uncle was the same way, Toad. Big Harley guy, couldnt understand the charm of the cafe bikes. Had him go take out the ZX-9 and watching him give it the gas was like watching that little Ewok hang on for dear life on the speeder bike back in one of the star wars movies.

He came back 45 mins later, big smile and all. All the rice burner jokes ended on that day. All he measures the world by now is those that ride, and those that want to ride

Mark, I wouldnt expect anything less than pure responsible riding from you, still I am glad some idiot hasnt tagged you.

Me, not a ding, and nothing but the rubber has touched the ground on my Yami. This thing is so much fun. I have had a one or two close calls with a cager.
