Re: Cycle whore thread
Just got back from VIR. What a blast I love that facility. Unfortunately I ran into some bike trouble. On turn 1 after the straight I lost almost all power to the bike. It runs and idles fine, but goes nowhere when given gas. Haven't cracked it open, but I'm hoping it's minor. Luckily it didn't bog down mid corner as that wouldn't have been fun.

SRSLY, My bike's too old and rare (color scheme...locally) to risk having it knocked down and find plastics for. If it was newer I could just bring my Dad's truck, head to the BP and roll a bike into the lot and just tell everyone "Yeah, my boy told me to pick up his bike..." and I'd have nagger help me load it and look totally legit about it...naaah'meeaann?

Re: Cycle whore thread
It would seem that the guy loading that blue R6 was some guy everyone recognized as an asshat, presumably the bike belonged to him and so does the truck with no tags (at least, no tags in the legal spots). Guessing the bike broke down so it got loaded up.
