Anyone?? You girls are mighty quiet... anything new for this season?? new bikes? new gear? anything excited to talk about ?? anyone??
Just trying to get my act together. My bike's in pieces and the the shop I wanted to put it back together at just got repo'd at by the bank. I have a new Elka shock and other doodads to take care of.... :roll: Aren't YOU in pieces right now? How are ya doin? Faye
yeah, my bike made out pretty well in my wreck... but as for me, i am out of commission for the next few months... i get my neck brace off at the end of may and i am hoping that i can ride sometime after... we;ll see ..im dying to get back out there!
I'm on the DL myself for a few more weeks. I'm hoping to get back on two by the end of April. Not being able to ride is killing me. Heal up soon YouGuysRstupid!
Well...I've done 2 trackdays and have a bunch of new gear...some of it still on order though We also bought an SV so I'll probably start riding it at the track too!
very nice,.. how do you like it? i was thinking of going to the twin class if the 600 class gets too much worse
I've only taken the SV for a spin on the streets one time so far. Basically we purchased it one weekend and track-prepped it, got new tires, new brakes, changed oil, etc. in order to be out on the track (for my husband, not for me) the following weekend! :shock: Since then it's been sitting in the garage still in track-mode with the tape on...plus the weather here has not been so good I'm sure it's going to be a little different than my Gixxer. Powerband, seating position...but everyone I talk to absolutely loves the SV. I think it's going to be a perfect short track bike too, i.e. where you don't have super-long high-speed straights.
well, now that you ask :lol: I am kinda proud of my new paint on the ninja..Ive got a trackday at Barber this Saturday, hopefully it will come home just as shiny as it is now. of course I gotta sport the Femmoto sticker proudly!
Nice! I wanted to be at Barber this coming weekend. Should be healed up just in time for the WERA races the first of May though
Liren, what happened? Are you going to be up and running anytime soon? I dont know when ill ride. each doc tells me something different.. 1 month to 6 months ... who knows also.. AWESOME paint job... Speedwerks is doing my paint sometime next month
Thanks! My boyfriend (aka PitBitch, lol) painted it for me..and his r6 too. I love the color of his R6 I hope both of you heal up and get to the track soon!
yeah that looks good.. mine was done with spray paint by myself in that above pic.. not bad if you ask me... but it will be nice when its dont with a good clear coat finish that i can wax..
Short story, I was doing some tests for some LEO on a bike, the front end washed out from under me as I was setting up for a right hand turn. Knee took the primary impact with the asphalt and got a really nasty bruise. Gotta wait for the swelling to go down enough to bend more than 90 degrees now. Grand scheme of things, it's not serious at all, but it's put a major crimp in my very active life. Docs tend to vary from very optimistic to very pessimistic. I've gotten different numbers myself. Biggest thing is to give your body the time to heal before starting to stress it again.
The weather here is just getting nice to finally ride more than just cold-weather short-hops! I've been riding the dual sports all winter and just got the Ninja un-winterized. Hopefully I'll be able to do a track day in September.
Hawaii. A great place to VISIT. I've returned to Sweet Home Alabama!! Hawaii's race track was closed, the traffic was miserable, and very unfriendly to motorcycles. Not too mention there is no place on Oahu to open up the throttle without smacking into the back of another 'object.' Glad to be back home....
It's definately paradise...just not for the ADRENALINE FIXED "Hands ON the throttle" kind of girl. But the Mai Tai's, Snorkling, and Beach bound after a long day at work....FAB-u-lous! ...guess I could have started another hobby.......nah!
