Ok... so the Carrozzeria's are really hot. Not sure how I never heard of them. However, evil... you're going to have to tell me where you're getting yours. The MSRP is a hair over $1700.

Well, all my stuff is done at the paint shop. I'm going to leave it all there for a couple days. It's a little cool and moist here in Northern Georgia at the moment so I want to make sure it's as done as it can be before I start bolting everything back on. It came out quite a bit darker then I had hoped due to the flat clear coat. It's also not as flat as I was hoping. More like a semi-gloss gunmetal grey. I did bring the tank home to see how it looks next to the carbon fiber parts. I think it's going to look good. I'll likely have the tank mounted tomorrow just so I can finish my oil change and hear the Muzzy GP system for the first time.

Ok... I'm on my way back to Iraq as usual. I was able to snap off some pictures of the ZX10's new look. I put a few in the album. I'll try to embed one here.

I did the Kevin Schwantz Suzuki School while I was home this time. Let me say that was worth every single cent. I did the two day school and I wish it were a week long. Fortunately I registered for the three day school in August and I can't freakin wait. If you're considering it I highly recommend it. I improved ten times on my riding, easily. Awesome school...

Also, I was flinging poo pretty hard on my new PVM wheels that weigh exactly as much as my factory stock wheels. I'm not entirely certain on the physics of it but those damn wheels made the bike super easy to lean over in the turns. I had ridden on them for the first time on my very first NESBA track day at Barber. For the first couple of sessions I thought there was something wrong with my bike because it felt so damn weird. Then I realized that it took very little effort to lean the bike over or transition from side to side. Ten thumbs up on the PVM's.
