Haven't hit the highway yet (i've got about 2 weeks experience) but I decided if i'm going to do it I'm going to do it right... sold the car. It's riding or walking for me... :)

Now that takes commitment! When I was very youg I went 2 years with bike only (and it was a BSA, not a nice reliable Kaw). The main lesson it tought me is Winter sucks. :laugh:

Trianglelaguna, IMO jet pics are great! Kawis are fast, jets are fast, I fix both, so it's all the same to me. Actually now I work on simulators, but at least I get to fly 'em now. Biggest bestest video games in the world!
As far as my bike, I had some down time rebuilding my front end, but she'a all back together now and runnin great. And the weather is finally nice, instead of 100+ degrees. Been riding her to work and such.
