Haha, quick one Drake! Yeah it's the fastest sewing machine I've ever been on! Never realized the riding position on these bikes REALLY makes you wanna go fast! Haven't romped on it too hard yet, it's only got about 1500 miles on it. Not a fan of the amber cosmetics...don't wanna be too much like Loren I guess! Plan on swapping the black rims off my S and put a black windscreen on it. (Ghostrider style!) BTW, the belt guards came off within an hour of parking it in my garage... |

Hey KC! I will be in town from this Saturday to the next. It would be cool to meet up with you guys somewhere. So both Sam and Tim are making choppers? I know Tim is, and from the posts, it looks like Sam is doing something. Hey Tim, when you lost your speedo sensor, did it just quit, or did it bounce around a bit first? Mine starting twitching on me the other day, then it quit all together. But the next time I rode, it was working, then started twitching again. |

I am not building a chopper. Think 1320 feet further. Rob, give me a call if you get some free time during the week. (913) 2444195 |

Hey Sam, I've noticed you usually run Michelin Pilot Powers for tires on your bike. I'm needing to acquire a set of tires soon and was trying to decide between those and Pirelli Diablo's. What's your opinion? |

Rob when my speed sensor went out it started smoking really bad and then just died, so you may have a short in one of the wires. Give me a call when you get to town. |

Hey Duff, All the sportbike riders down here who frequent Arkansas and such swear by the Pilot Powers. Thing is they only get about 3-4,000 miles out of them. I wonder if you could get some more mileage out of the Pirelli's? If they are anything like the Scorpion Syncs, you could probably get 6-7,000 miles out of them. |

I've had a diablo rear and seemed like it lasted about 5k, but lost its grip after a while, seemed like it acquired a glaze around it...or maybe I just wasn't riding hard enough. They've got some awesome tire prices on www.motoxoutlet.com, although they don't carry pirelli's. |

Murphy calls to see his mate Paddy who has a broken leg. Paddy says, "Me feet are freezing mate, could you nip upstairs and get me slippers?" "No bother," he says, and he runs upstairs and there are Paddy's two stunning 19 year old twin daughters sat on their beds. "Hello dere girls, your Da' sent me up here to shag ya both. "Your a liar!", they said. "I'll prove it," Murphy says. So he shouts down the stairs, "Both of them, Paddy?" "Of course, what's the use of fu**in' one?" |

That was a fun fight they shut down over on the QB. I guess the union thing is a real hot-button. Somebody closed the thread just after I got called a "jackball." |

Who was on the White XB riding northbound on I635 near riverside Thanksgiving afternoon between 1:30 and 2:00pm? Your bike looked and sounded pretty good when you went by me and my wife in her Subaru on our way to the daughter's house for T-day dinner.

I was at Topeka HD today and Eli said the Lawrence shop would be open in the next few weeks. That will be their Buell location. |

Lowflyer, Yup...I was kinda in on that Union thread too. There were some people getting mighty defensive before anything was said, pro or con. Larry, Welcome back stranger. Rusty, Nice artwork! |

Methinks one side was far more defensive than the other. They were defensive before there was even an organized offense. |

The art for our band logo was done by Martin McKenna in England. He does alot of illustration for video games, sci-fi movies and animation work, heck of a nice guy to let us use the Disgruntled Gnome art for the band. www.martinmckenna.net |

Tulsa got hit pretty good and the whole town is shut down. They aren't used to getting this much snow, and therefore don't have very many plows. Most roads have not been touched! |

That's typical Tulsa winter Drake. They say they don't usually get much snow, but it's not that different of a winter than we have here. The town will shut down every time there is an inch of snow because they don't have the removal equipment. It would dust the roads when I was a kid and they would call a snow day for school. |

I have a problem. I am falling in love...with an Italian! **gasp** Don't worry, my wife knows. But she was a bit confused. "I didn't know we like Italians." she questioned. "We don't," I said...until this was unleashed. I have been doing some research on the new 2007 Aprilia Tuono and the thing is just damn awesome. 60 degree V-twin with 133 crank HP. Its had some great reviews including the one in Cycle World, where it first caught my eye. What do you guys think?
