The Duc is STILL not in and I called just to tease myself... Sam told me he would buy the CBR from me as a trade in...

I've got the CBR... and for all logical reasons... think I will be keeping it. Pics to come when clean and ready to share...

I am considering WHEELS.... anybody know a lightweight wheel for a CBR1k, 2005?

Ouch, c'mon dadogs that's just wrong! You are one cruel bastage! You know the stepstool needs two more rungs!


That reminds me. I had to take a desperate morning dump in the Memphis Airport this morning. They had the shortest toilets I've ever used. I felt like Shaq on a normal toilet ... knees up to my neck and all. It would have been perfect for midwest.

You two are BASTARDS you know that?

2ohno... link me to the wheels... what are we talking? I HATE the 3 spokes on the CBR!

I know if I SEE the 848 in preson I will be hooked. SO I am trying to avoid that as much as possible! For now.. I am back on two wheels, got a smokin deal on a super clean bike, and it will give me something to do in the garage all summer.

OH Christ I need to submit that f*&king drawing to the City for plan approval soon! Thanks for the reminder....

The otherday I ran into a guy in town with a white 848. SWEET frickin bike, I must say. While we were talking his brother pulls up on his bike... a red 1048... MAN... nice rides. I asked him if I could have his bike but he said no.

Of course now I see them every day riding around while their bikes taunt me.

That 1048 must be a very rare bike?

I KNOW... and I cleaned it once pretty good... good enough for you guys. I'll get some up soon. Been extremely busy and haven't even had time to ride it enough... took it to work a few days but thats about it.

Baseball 4 nights a week with the two boys (on different teams this year) has been killing me! Golf one night myself (they finished golf tonight actually) and then comes the WEEKEND!

My wife never thought kids would be so much work... I keep telling her I KNEW THEY WERE! Its why I didnt want any! Seriously I didn't... but she talked me into two or else we werent getting married! Be careful what you wish for.... YA just might get it!

Dont get me wrong I LOVE having the kids and wouldn't trade them for the world... I was just a bit more realistic than she was when looking long term! I knew what I was getting into when we decided... and I laugh now... cuz I seriously dont think she did!

And me adding 10hrs or so to my work week for the next 3 months to keep up isnt making her smile very much!

Where can one get those cool Pirelli's with the yellow logo on them? I don't want the yellow pencils to color them in but the real deal.
