From Thumper to Thunder...
To SCREAMER!
Woot, traded in the ape this morning on a slightly more comfortable and forgiving street/track weapon. 08 600. Whoopty whoop. Now I'm apart of the "nation" to which I had lambasted to no extent or discretion. |

Initial impressions - it's a couch in comparison. I could've napped on it with my earplugs in. No wind noise, no motor noise, no motor vibratons, nothing. It's like the bike wasn't even there. It has about half the torque as well as the RSVR, which is A: appropriate for a WOT input midturn to exit and B: very deceiving as I had looked down at one point and was surprised at how fast I was actually going. Plus it's almost brand new aside from just a few thousand miles, don't wanna give that up. But wait one month, and I will come back this post and update it.

yep, I'd go put the smack down on, just to show her you still wear the pants
 I want another 600 in my stable too... Most likely it will be a GSXR as they seem to fit the wife best so we both can ride it. |

Sweet choice. When my bud lets me ride his Gixxer 600 I feel it has the best ergos. Not nearly as refined as my 09 6r tho.
Get rid of the chicken strips homebrew.
