Well, I've just come to terms with the fact that I might have a little something to prove to all the spaceship riders coming to this deal. My ass is gonna have to set a good pace thru the Dragon on my old, slow, no leaning-assed Roadstar (while carrying a passenger!) to all you guys riding couch-rockets solo. I've got my work cut out for me. Gonna work on all new brakes and fluid this weekend. New tires front and rear Monday. Ready to roll out on Tuesday. Looking forward to it. Time to get to work son!

Hahahaha well i guess this is directly related to me preston and gus lmao

So dude this is the thing........ You ride and R1 on the racetrack lol you could be riding a tractor down the dragon and still be fast no doubt about that at all. Now as far as pure acceleration on the semi straight roads...... Their isnt enough brake fluid in the universe to help you with that brother lmao (oh yea wings and bmws do have brakes with integrated linked brake systems )

I know about the semi straight roads. That's why I specified the really curvy ones, lol. I don't have a snowballs chance in hell anywhere else (and might not even in the twisties )

Kyle ,,,, For those curvey roads I have a 31 tooth pulley that might give u a little edge. I think that is how I stayed with in reach of you last year . I had a 30 tooth pulley on then.

I'm putting my new scrape guards on tonight that Jim sent me a month or so ago. !!!! I might rip a little still but going to drink some Miller Lite and do some cruising. Not at the same time, you know what I mean!

Oh yea Grant Tim and his wife are coming up but not till like Thursday or Friday. He's pulling my trailer with that hitch I got him several months back.
