I don't remember them looking that low, have you lowered it at all or is that stock?

Looking good man!

I can't believe you would ask that. That bike is in a world all it's own.

Re: pics of my hayabusa

Thanks for the compliments guys.

LTL: I lowered it 1.5 inches in the rear with some simple dogbones. My legs aren’t as strong as they were before the accident so I had trouble backing the thing up while parking etc. This thing is heavier than my RR’s were by a mile – and you can definitely tell in the parking lot – it’s a tank. I was intending on eventually raising it back up but now I sort of like it lowered. I don't do the twisty thing very much so why not?

Ghotchkiss: That’s the cal-sportbike gear indicator – very happy with it. It was sort of a necessity -- the accident left me with drop foot on the left side. I can’t move my foot up, I can only press down. This was my biggest challenge in riding again – or so I thought. I already wear a brace to hold my left foot up so I don’t drag my toes when I walk. To upshift I just pull my whole leg up. I honestly missed about ¼ of my upshifts for the first few thousand miles but by now I have it down (knock on wood). I was looking into electric shifters but now realize I don’t even need it.

Lucid: it’s like Custom900 said, you can’t even compare the two bikes. Absolutely apples to oranges – super sport to sport touring. This is not the bike I would have preferred before my accident, but it is now. In a perfect world (aka Pete's world) I'd have both.

Pete: almost forgot – like phobe said – e-****you!

Sorry to be so long winded – maybe this busa’s making me like Chain?

What?! I've never had the pleasure. The answer will vary from person to person too, I was wondering what his view was. Now I know to shut the hell up and chill in the corner, thanks for the insecurity.
