I COULDN'T RESIST THE WEATHER SUNDAY. 78 DEGREES, FRESH TIRES, JUST 1 RIDE ON IT SINCE A VALVE ADJUSTMENT, SLIP-ON INSTALLED AND THE CARBS JETTED AND SYNCED. MY DOCTOR HADN'T RELEASED ME FOR THIS AFTER RECENT SURGERY BUT A 20 MINUTE RIDE WAS BETTER THAN ALL OF THE NARCOTICS I HAD TAKEN IN THE LAST WEEK OR SO.  I HAD BEEN OFF OF THE PILLS FOR A COUPLE OF DAYS SO I WASN'T RIDING STONED. THERE IS SOMETHING ABOUT THE SOUND OF A GOOD RUNNING 4 CYLINDER AT FULL THROTTLE AND 11,000RPM THAT IS GOOD FOR THE SOUL.

She was runnin' really well today, as usual.  The Yosh RS-3 exhaust was singing to me all the way home.  

I hope it's not too cold tomorrow morning. . . that balaclava gives me serious helmet hair!

Wait . . . "Balaclava" means "head lice"?  Learn something new everyday.   :monkeymoon:    :grin:   :stickpoke:
Ever noticed that they don't make helmets out of bone? There's a reason.

Sig - there's something wrong with the links.  I copied them into my browser window and got nuthin'.  :?:

I saw a bunch of bikes the last few days on 95 in MD.  Too cold for me!  There was a guy on a tiny Honda dual sport today passed me while I was doing 80+ fighting a tank-slapper the whole way.  I can't imagine that guy's going to live long.

I guess the only bike more out of place than the B12 was the Gixxer!
