Dudes! I've been drinking water every couple of minutes since I got home! The ride was fun but the heat was :bs

It'll be time for a gin & tonic soon, after I get rehydrated.

Major case of SWAMPASS!

Lord Allmighty was it hot today!

Ken, Good job today, it was an awsome ride
Oh yea and nice meetin ya finally.

Why was it every time Vcook stood up to air out his crotch my shield fogged up? Do they make a deoderant for crotch?

:evil

Hope Kevins Duck is a minor prob and easily fixed

After all that I now have to drive 4 hours up into cheese land to swet my ass off again in a tent for a week.
Be cool

Hmm, probably 'cause you started breathing heavily and getting excited staring at his ass, you sicko! :nono :evil

Man, I really was gonna make it out for this ride, but I was in bed too late (oops). Thanks to Vcook for bringing TOTW2 for me and thanks to Grovaaaa for hauling it back to my area. You guys are the best.

Still learning how to launch it, although I must say that it does pretty good not letting those 9R's get away at 3/4 throttle after the launch:evil Imagine what will happen when I open 'er up with a steering damper:twofinger

Yeah, with all that extra road hugging weight and semi-truck like wheelbase those Kawasaki's have (did you note the VIN placard on your bike which says "Kawasaki HEAVY Industries":evil) I am sure that I will have quite the challenge...but I am sure that I will still smoke yo' azz :evil :rofl
