Awesome decision. Once you get it, hurry up and start racking up miles so we can hear about its long term reliability. Can you do 10,000 by the end of the year?

I see the one in Council is still up and has been listed at 8K, 6.5K, and now 6.8K. Damn. I need another bike like another hole in the head.

The snow machine is old and worth $1K at best, but still rips like a scalded dog. I can't quit snowmobiling with the boys! How else would I acquire so much titanium and cool, chick-digging scars?

I'll be sure to blame it on you....

fine then, we are getting to the point that the things we buy will have to be paid for by our kids anyway. It is only an hour from your place!!
Watch this, then go to the bank...

Don't do it, Scott. Just put the pumper carb on, and it changes everything. I was clearing 60 foot gaps this weekend, getting 93 mph top end with my 13/47 gearing, and got 75 mpg. It's a miracle, I tell ya.

I can almost believe 93 mph, but we need photos of 60 ft gaps!
