My other hobby

Re: My other hobby

Nice. But I was thinking/hoping that you were the motorcycle.

My R1 will get into the low 10's in street trim, without dropping the front end. Of course, you've got to hold the throttle on the stop well- beyond when the speedo indicates 160.

My 'other hobby' is the practice of placing mind over matter. The bike just helps with that; as would prosecuting a one-week jury trial.

Besides, risk is over-rated: All the bad stuff happens out of the blue on a Tuesday afternoon anyway.

) What scares me is how many people get up, dust themselves off, and go right back to doing the same thing as if no learning took place.

Re: My other hobby

I really ned to get my Sporty onto a 1320 so I can see if it will pull a 9:53. It G-Teched a 9:53 on a summer road a couple years ago and my riding buddy said on a track it should go deeper into the nines because of better traction. I have a new G-Tech of my own, but need to figure out the mounting of my new fairing before I play with that stuff
