Default Oops!



Called Seacoast Sport Cycle a few minutes ago...looks like there's a pre order in their system in my name now!

Hoping the wait isn't that long, minimum of 10 days, looking more like 17 though

This is the bike :


So who up in the North East wants to get together and ride this summer?!

after reading that article, i think you made a great choice!

Rode it today...holy crap.

This bike is AMAZING. It sounds awesome, the dealer had a termi exhaust on it already which added a lot but dang it was awesome. It was very smooth, had a good even power band, not real jerky, and it's set up very well. The bike was really comfortable and easy to handle, I felt even better on the SP version (only got to sit on one, not ride).

Also, they look WAY better in person. The black one looked like crap in pictures but it's realllly nice in person, still liking the SP livery though!

I really want this bike now, more than I did before. Just have to get my dad to sign some loan papers and I'll be off and away on a new shiny bike!

Yeah, my mom signed the first, time for dad to step up. It's important to me and he had one as a kid too, then again he also wrecked his lol.

The reviews are 50/50 it seems, some say its the best yet, some say the older ones were more hyper spirit because the new ones are not as powerful/lack torque even though they have loads more than a 600rr does lol

I can't wait!

Usually when I say oops it's because I did something incredibly stupid and something went terribly wrong. You seem to have done something terriibly right, that thing looks amazing. Good luck with it.
