true, although a supermoto would probably be right up my alley. not too many places to go off pavement by me...

watch for more pics when my pipes and stuff come in.

wyo,

all i can say to that is, sometimes...lmao

i can honestly say after spending a few days with the fat girl, i love it. no where near as fast as the blade but is a blast off the red light. stock riding position is not as bad as it looks. till i get my pegs and seat i look like a flying taco...

oddly the 240 is not as bad as i expected it actually changes direction pretty good for a almost 700lbs of torquey pork. considering the price range i set myself, this bike beat some tough competition. one of the lowest seat heights in existence helped too 25.5 i think

Nice one Shakey, sounds like you'll be having loads of fun

Now get out there and enjoy it

Oh just one problem there I think its about 1am or so with you.....so....give it a few hours then get out there

shakey1378 · 10-02-2009, 5:58 PM

got my reduced reach foot controls and it is only getting better. most of my aftermarket goodies are still on order, hopefully i get em soon so i can post some updated pics and maybe a sound clip of the exhaust.

jazzy,

when i posted that was a bout a couple hrs riding after leaving work around 9:30 i really enjoy night rides for the lack of cars out at those hours.

bjay51d · 10-02-2009, 10:54 PM

congrats on the new ride bro...

Nice one Shakey, I saw a v rod here yesterday, unfortunatley the guy thought he was really cool....until he fu(ked up a gear change

I'm sure that would never happen to your good self, but if you ride late at night when no one is about, no one would ever know

shakey1378 · 10-02-2009, 11:46 PM

i f'd up a gear change the last day i had the standard controls due to the short leg syndrome...worked out ok ended up leaving a nice darkie as it was 1st to second...oops back to first. but that wont happen anymore
