glad you're okay.

the exhaust has never been the problem. air/fuel management is the problem. start thinking on how you'll deal with that issue.

Remember kids, stay on the throttle when the rear looses traction (just like Mr. Rossi)...just messin with ya (IMG:style_emoticons/default/wink.gif)

Silver lining to the cloud, you were wearing all your gear and must have had a nice lid. On top of that you may have found somone to hook you...and maybe some of the rest of us...up with a turbo system for the 2.0. Cool deal, and good luck w/ the noggin'

I'm not sure. He had a GSXR before, and recently got a yamaha after someone stole the GSXR. I know he spends quite a few wed nights on beach blvd in huntington beach for bike night.

I beg to differ when the rear comes around hooks up and spits you over the bike in the direction of forward motion, thatwould be a highside.

Had to go back to the hospital saturday for pain, turns out my jaw is broke too.

I'll be back on the bikes as soon as I'm not dizzy antmore.

Thanks for all the concern!!!

You guys are cool!!!

Where are the pics of the bike? How much is left? You gonna put the motor in the teener?

And, you know, if you are compelled to practice throttle control, it is a whole lot more convenient to be doing it at Laguna. I mean, the ambulance is already there, etc...

I personally think it is out of line. It is a personal deision and has no place in a discussion about motorcycles or cars fot that matter. But that's just me.

Busa, I was joking about the can't high side on the street. That statement wsa made on Speedzilla, it is kind of like the "You can't turbo a 914" (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif)

Broken jaw sounds painfull, glad the headache has subsided though.

Hope your jaw turns out ok. Also, glad to see someone taking that "fat drag bike" knee dragging (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smilie_pokal.gif) A riding buddy of mine out in NoVA has a 'busa with Givi hardbags on it, and knee drags it...calls it his 185mph Goldwing, haha.

All of us don't view the activities shown in those pictures as awe inspiring. Personally, I look at em' and say "Ah, organ doners".

If that offends you.... (IMG:style_emoticons/default/confused24.gif) if you want to have folks say "Kewl", go to a crotch rocket forum.


I'm fairly democratic. I feel the same about "canyon runners" in their Porsches, also.
