Gave her a damn good thrashing around the country lanes, nice to be able to lean her over again with confidence, can't wait for lighter mornings and longer evenings

Yes I got shinko's LOL. I have reaserched them, and many riders are saying that they are pretty good rubber, plus they last! Which is why I got them since this will be my commuter veh. I was sold when I found a Hayabusa site and riders on there were using them and giving great reviews. I will post a lil thread on them when I get them mounted.

No worries Shakey ........... she'll pass with flying colours 
...after all that work and
attention she got .

jealous with stats like that.
Anyhow threw a good few ounces of SeaFoam into my tank this evening and took
her down the highway (I 95) to Portsmouth NH and back to York

needle was getting well past midnight ........if yez know what I mean

i put mine on the charger a couple weeks back finally. still way too cold for me to get out as i dont think riding in a winter coat is enjoyable.
i also need some new tires before she gets out for the season, but the insurance is all paid up and im ready to stop putting so many miles on my car. someone loan me tire money. i won't pay you back.

got my shinkos for 141.98 shipped from here Shopping Cart | Rocky Mountain ATV/MC
Picked up some new grips yesterday some type of gel grip from itly or somthing, got the tire spoons in and my new battery. It has been on the charger since 1800 last night(how many volts does it need to be before i put it on my bike???). Should be good to go soon, but I threw my back out doing the valve adjust on sunday. So percocet and valume for me.
