Congratulations, Mars!

I'm sure whoever trained you mentioned this...but this is a pretty good piece of advice...

If on landing you get into a porpoise, it'll bounce once...twice...and on the third one that prop is hitting pavement.  The trick is if you count two and there's going to be three...power out and try again.  This was passed on by someone speaking from experience.  I took it to heart and have yet to ding a prop :)

Be safe sir.


I'm shopping for an S1C or S1S myself.  Doesn't even need to be nice because when I'm done with it...the only thing original will be some aluminum tubing and the data plate.

Heh... Hey Mars... is that Danbury, CT?

Is the passenger seat in that thing big enough to fit me? (6'6" 250lbs)

If so, I'll ride down there on my V-Rod :D
