I <3 that thing! I always hated the rear end on that bike. It actually makes that weird old looking super sport pretty IMO. I need exhaust making skills.

I just picked this up last week! I've ridden bikes before, but this is my first one. I have my learners and I am going to take the MSF course soon, but I've been practicing in parking lots and taking rides with friends.

Congrats. Stay within your limits, and be safe!

thanks. I'm still working on a decal situation.
I did this really quick before I left work. It's not done or correct at all but I'm thinking it might be the direction I want to go?

Me too. Right after getting my license, some friends and I decided to take all back roads to blacksburg for a tech game. I was coming up on a roundabout and grabbed a handful of front brake. Next thing I know, Im laying on my back, staring at the sky, trying to figure out what just happened. Then the lady in the suv behind me started laying on the horn because I'm laying next to my bike, blocking the road. Now I know why the instructor said never to grab a handful of front brake.

I love all the roads out by 81. Ever hit the stretch between Big Island and Natural Bridge? My friend Will and I hit that every so often. Great roads out there.

Not bad. I could also see a dual "racing stripe' going right down the top of the tank, and maybe some simple pin-striping to highlight the shape of the tank on the sides, with a nice GnarlyWrench deacal on there

What are the plans for the seat/tail? Any?
