i'm leaning more and more towards getting rid of the bike, and scoring a used one; getting cheap fairings ec; and making it a track day bike.

I've noticed the last 5 years, it's become very bad for sportbikes (mostly because of the jackasses 'stunting' etc); they're too much fun to be limited by the street and the dangers/laws associated with it etc.

I think track days would be a blast; but not sure how frequent they are, or how much the $$..

I haven't had one since the 80s, but I'm sure by saying that I just jinxed myself and I'll be getting one tomorrow.

Destiny. Pure and simple.

I haven't had one since my monster either.

My first ticket came on my 16th birthday. I felt lucky because I had been driving since I was 12. And, I have always had a problem speeding.

The worst was getting clocked at 120 and the cop put out an APB because he didn't think he could catch up to me before the state line. I didn't even know he had clocked me. Took him 30 miles to catch up, and it was only because I ran into some traffic.

Luckily, I was in the service and he didn't cart me off to jail.

You were in the service at the age of 16, Mr. SensibleChiefsfan?

What service? Webelos?
