I would also like to add that if anyone ever needs anything tied down, they can give me a call....I'm pretty amazing at it.  I tied a table to a car roof and even going like 1000mph the table didn't even move.  ;D

Whatever man!  Everyone knows that only Monster 620s can go that fast!!  [roll]

Went to class
Got frustrated
Had a couple of beers.  And a bottle of wine.  For safety, you know.

Went to the doctor cause a lower back pain, got the exams done, seems that I have a renal infection due to a blow received in the lower left side of my back, right beside my left kidney...
More test to come 2morrow...

Ducati is the pretty girl that can't walk in heels without stumbling. I still love her.

Ya only complaint is sizing, the 42 was too small and the 44 is a touch too big, but they don't make a 43....

Yea, that was the only thing I didn't like so much about Astars kit, the sizing didn't work that well for me.  Hopefully it fits Mike better than it did me.  Now my Dainese on the other hand...   [thumbsup]

speaking of things on a car roof

in kailua i saw two samoans in an old cadillac that tied a rather large mattress onto the roof. for strapping they used... their ARMS.

the driver had his left arm out, the passenger his right, holding the darn thing on the roof.

Troy Bayliss used TCX (formerly Oxtar) while clobbering the competition on his WSB Ducati [moto]

Yep, TCX makes some really nice boots.   [thumbsup]

tried on the XXL AKUMA carbon fiber helmet, its a little snug but i think it might loosen up a lil bit once its broken in, now i just need to make sure my GF gets the hint for my birthday next week.

your better off then i am rolling around in my old fieldsheer jacket, HJC helmet and airflow gloves. and i dont even want to mention my steel toe work boots... i really need to get some good riding gear. maybe the akuma CF helmet will  be a good way to get things started and i can start investing from there.
it is so much easier to get forgiveness then it will ever be to get permission.

Just keep in mind, you want that lid to fit pretty snug, just shy of being a little uncomfortable.  Like you said, it will break in a bit and you want to make sure it doesn't move around on your head once break in does occur.

said with tongue in cheek...being tall & thin with long fingers and wide feet, I can't be brand choosey when it comes to something that fits...I've bought and returned countless jackets, boots and gloves, until I found stuff that feels right and offers decent protection...
