Hell yeah dude. I'd have to get another bike, I'm quite a bit too scared to do it on the 999.

Maybe if I can find a wrecked 749...

I found a set of rear sets on Ducati.ms (which you need to join btw) for 50 bucks. Not bad at freaking all..

exactly...






I can't wait for my 750 to be done. Need a nice cruiser bike for me and the wife. The 999 is going to be my weekend warrior and sunny day Jap killer.

Do you have a trailer, and where will you be living once you get back?

I'll be living in Yorktown, and no but my best friend has an open trailer I can use whenever.

If I get my old job back for the time being I'll probably buy my own along with a beater to pull it.

Awesome, yorktown is a nice area. I hope you get that job then. Where are you planning on riding? Summit is in WV and I don't know which one is more motorcycle friendly but VIR is also an option.

I'd really just like to get the basics down on a slower bike, get quicker and quicker on it then go mental on a Duc.

But I have to get out of school first.



Try not to give redline any business, and don't buy an 848 (J biebs just bought one)

Yea, Yorktown is nice, but I'm hoping this job position opens up in DC by the time I move back home. I've never liked redline so I don't plan on it .

I'd probably go to VIR honestly. http://www.superbikeschool.com/ or http://www.cornerspeed.net/overview.html . I pulled those off VIR. I'll most likely be doing one of these this summer.
