Getting closer
I got my moon boot off last Monday, I've been doing physical therapy all this week. Had the bike lowered an inch and replaced the chain/sprockets, had it tuned-up, and I'm going to replace the front brake pads before I really get on it. Boyfriend took it out after I had all the tuning-up done and he said it feels amazing; he weighs the same amount as me and said he didn't really notice a handling difference with the inch drop.
Still being careful and won't be on it for another couple of weeks..but it's so close I can smell it!
Well hey, when in forced downtime, shopping is a good way to amuse oneself.
I found an amazing local mechanic who does race tuning for a lot of the local people, he charges half of what the dealerships/shops charge and works out of his garage. If anybody in the Tampa area wants his name/number, just let me know.

I was off the bike for 3 weeks after getting my nose done.
Even though it was sh*t windy day and it had just stopped raining, It felt great to be back on the bike. Only been back on two days now and ive done over 100 mile.

I got back on tonight O.o All I did was idle around the block/get in first. I walked it around pretty much all the corners- could NOT bring myself to make that turn out of the driveway.
But I got the first time back on jitters out of the way- the know-how is still *there* I've just got to not be scared of it. Hopefully I'll knock it out of the way for the three day weekend.
