as long as you wont lose your shirt on your current machin, you will love it. like i said, one of my friends and my uncle were grinning ear to ear after about 2 mins on the machine.
But for real, i cant wait to get up to west va for some riding. buddy of mine said his dad mentioned something about maybe the day after christmas.
that or hopefully get some time in around another buddies place. he has about 90 acres or so. but i will def. get some pics while im riding.

Very nice machine. That machine is in a class of it's own. How can a manufacturer put those tires on such a fine machine? Why dont they charge $100 more and come stock with ITPs?
That is like delivering a BMW with Kumo tires from the factory.....a shame.

As for the helmet, i have one but never wear it, i just dont like them, but after about 30 mins on this machine, i decided to start wearing it on my rides now. i mean, im not an expert rider by any means. i have flipped my 700 on top of me, its no fun, but this thing is scary fast, at least for me. so yea, the helmet is getting worn. ive nicknamed it "the beast" LOL
now i have to call allstate and see what kind of insurance they have. anyone have any suggestions on coverage, i was thinking, theft, damage, and maybe medical???



Sweet ride. Makes me wish mine was new again. Enjoy it in it's current condition. It will never be as nice as it is there.
