How did you like it and did you attend the one or two day class? Is it worth the $? I have been thinking about signing up for the class this year. Thanks I did two one-day classes, levels 3 & 4. I did the two-day levels 1 & 2 in Vegas last year and preferred the two-day format. The main difference is with the two-day classes, you get 7 track seasons/day versus 5, and one coach to two riders versus 1:3 or 4. It was blast, I highly recommend the two day classes. I'm planning a two-day level 4 at Laguna in June, and maybe a Code RACE in October. -k |

Quote HistoryI was drooling over those and the 390 Duke this weekend. The 32 inch seat height is a big negative for me though and everything I have ever heard says that you would be better off sitting on a board instead of the factory seats that KTM has. Any truth in that? |

Sold the R6. Bought an '83 FXR for a decent price. May use it as a donor bike for a Paughco frame I have laying around this winter.
Took the front fairing off.

I'm going to have to sell my GSXR1000, my subgun, and still kick in 10-12 k to make it happen. That's more than I paid for the GSXR!  It would cost me another $100 a month in payment if I want to keep the GSXR and I may do it.
really want this bike though, gonna be a few weeks  .

Finally could get the bike out today, salt is off the roads due to the rain 2 days ago, the sun is shining and it's 55 degrees. You can sometimes forget how beautiful these HD's are when they spend months in a garage under a cover, I took this image just before I started her after a 5 month sleep. She started instantly, blew a bit of white smoke due to the cylinder fogging oil I used in November then settled in to her idle and was happy to see the sun, I was too. I warmed her up well monitoring her oil pressure, put the Tucson <Walking Dead Edition  > in the garage and went out for a 75 mile loop. Lots of debris in the roads but saw a dozen other bikes, everyone waving, happy to be back on the road... tomorrow looks to be even better weather!

http://i658.photobucket.com/albums/uu301/DarkStarShooter/006_zps1gtnu3sy.jpg I got mine out this past week, knowing I had a long weekend with nothing planned. Rain for the next several days has definitely dampened my mood.

Thanks, it's an '08 with about 3800 miles on it. It wasn't stored well. Looks great from ten feet away but up close, not so much. I put in a new battery and it fired right up. The V&H pipes are a bit loud for my taste so they'll get replaced at some point. It's a good companion to the Indian and Victories in the barn.

Plenty loud when you want them to be but pleasant out cruising. And yeah my neighbors all hate me

My first bike. Picked it up a month ago. Just got it back from the 1000 mile service. Now time to start putting some real miles on it.
Been working on blacking it out a piece at a time. Still have a couple more engine covers to install. Then at some point, its on to the rocker boxes, pushrods and the entire front end. |

I bought this blue one last week on Monday because I always liked that body style of R6. I rode it around for 5 days and realized that while it may be the best looking R6 version, it doesn't perform quite as well as the newer ones do, so I sold it on Sunday.
I need to sell that white R6 too, then I'll start looking at buying an R1. |
