Hey congrats on the new ride!!! That's great that you found a brand spankin', crated, new one available

A friend of mine had one for almost 6 years and loves that thing to death. He's actually pretty nimble on the twisties with it as well, still can't figure that one out

All in all one of the most comfortable "fast" bikes out there. I was always jealous on the ride home after putting 300+ miles on in a day. He'd hop off like we went around the block, as for me I felt like a pretzel and would need to be lifted off the bike. Great choice and nice find. Never really cared for the silver ones.

Why is the Corbin seat for the XX so damn heavy?

They use what they call "Fibertech" for their seatpans. I call it cement - it's heavy as hell.

Sargent OTOH uses plastic. Much lighter (I've owned several of both and currently have a rear Corbin Gunfighter with backrest for the busa).

Ahh got it, thanks Chain. The Corbin's are extremely comfortable, just couldn't understand why they made 'em so heavy. Backrest is a nice option when riding 2-up.

How appropriate that you have a toilet seat for your big pink suppository.

Me? I was never really "on" the track. (Tried it a little at Grattan #1, and JenningsGP #1, but it doesn't really do anything for me. )

Time for some schooling I'd say. I bet if you worked one on one with someone like Abtech, you'd find you couldn't get enough after awhile.

Nah. Just doesn't interest me... Riding around in circles is too much like NASCAR.

You still keep passing the same scenery over and over, so, it's as good as a circle.

You probably prefer WRC to F1. The course has a start and a finish, no repetition.

Update: They still don't know where it is. Talked to the owner of the dealership and he's checking on it to let me know the status. Should know within the hour.

Sucks because we have a stretch of 5 days of good weather coming up; after that I'll be going out of town for about 10 days.

Side note: He said that when he ordered mine there were only 10 left (in crates) in the country. They ordered two of em.

Sucks because I'm basically bikeless since I'm not riding the VFR anymore. (Don't want to put more miles on it, or risk damage before the trade.)
