So who did the mount & balance?    CC?

SSD, they picked up the bike yesterday from my house...it's ready now, so maybe I can get a few miles on it before Sunday...

Picked up the Speedy today, couldn't help but see the large sign with SSD's new labor rates...$99 per hour, up from $85...

Gee, we should raise our shop rate then.
No modification goes unpunished. Memento mori.  Good people drink good beer.  Things happen pretty fast at high speeds.

It's all up to your will level, your thrill level and your skill level.  Everything else is just fluff.

My people skills are just fine.
It's my tolerance to idiots that needs work.

And the sugar fountain fairy swore so hard when she came to super-size that stale hope soybean; liiiike a homeless German woman. Who is this super-sizing spirit-crushing femme? And tell her I'll break a tree root up in her shrimp.

Being faster than you thought possible…it feels good. No, screw thatâ€"it feels like shotgunning a gallon of adrenaline and chasing it with an all-night orgy aboard a burning Viking boat.

Fancy Italian rear tire, and that's with discount, remember.   [cheeky]

South Seas has got one of these on their showroom floor, one of the homeliest motorbikes I've ever seen...

My old Streetfighter is in the shop for the 3rd time since I sold it.

First repair was for the regulator/rectifier, second fix was a fuel regulator and now the TPS is suspect.

It looks like SSD released the bike prematurely after the fuel regulator replacement as the bike was running shitty and wouldn't take the throttle properly upon startup after it was picked up...it was in the same condition when it was returned...the tech, not Eddy, is the same guy who took 11.5 hours to do my 22.5k mi service and left such a mess behind that I thought the cam cover was leaking when I got home...

What more can one say? I hope it's not the same guy who worked on my bike!
