    Most the "normal" bike riders don't go to the V. It's all the assholes that go just to rev the fuck out of their engine.

    I don't go to the V anymore, so...nay nay for me.

    My buddy just went from a Kawi 650 to a Busa!!!!

    Whenever I get my bike back It's at GMD right now so I can stop crashing my brains out. When I first got it I had another shop put different springs on it. Well apparently the fork springs they put in were the wrong length and made me had way to much preload and all while the rear didn't have near enough. This was making the attitude of the bike sit way on the rear, and loosing swingarm angle in turn loosing grip while getting on the gas. AKA highside

    yeah, uh huh, too much preload, Ive heard that excuse before.

    that sucks man, but at least you figured out what was creating the handling issue. well hit me up when your ready to get left behind by sportbikes again. that is until we get to that shortcut on 180.
