Cool ride, I've been looking at them and Busa's for the straight and flat here in ND, but I'm thinking I may end up going more GasMan style.

I even lost my ass selling my Pitbull stands on this forum. Now I have to buy them all over again! Quote:
It does ride like a caddy compared to the ZX-10Rs I had. Traction control on it is very effective. When it kicks on, you can hardly feel it working. Granted, I haven't tried slamming the throttle open. I just finished breaking it in and I'm a pretty conservative rider anyway. I hear you can't spin the rear wheel on gravel on the highest TC setting. I have yet to activate the ABS. |

It is awesome on the highway. 60 mph feels like you're barely moving. Quote:

Haha. Went through the same thing last year. Sold everything except my 1-piece, gloves and boots. Had to buy new Pitbulls and still waiting to buy a new Dainese jacket for cruising in jeans to run errands or whatever. Picked up some sweet cruising Astars boot-shoe things so I don't hafta use my "race" boots all the time.

The only real thing I was missing are stands. I still need a front stand, but I'll pick one up when it's time for new tires. |

Ya, I still need to grab a front stand. Man, I miss having a front stand. It's a bitch to clean the front wheel now. Stand or jacket, stand or jacket. Tough call.
