    This year I'm going to ride smarter...
    Got the Kat out, it fired up perfectly, tire pressure good, brakes good, gear on, lights all working, I even check the horn and chain.

    The roads have a bit sand left over from winter so I think to myself just take it easy...ya right...15 minutes into the ride, open stretch of road and the speed limit is history.

    I love my bike...

      The very existence of flame-throwers proves that some time, somewhere, someone said to themselves, 'You know, I want to set those people over there on fire, but I'm just not close enough to get the job done.'

        When I wrecked I said I would never ride again. 2 months later I was gearing up to ride on my new Kat telling myself I would stay slow. 10 minutes later I found out what amnesia feels like.....I forgot to keep her under 100 .

          I said the same thing. I'll ride cruisers until im mature enough to ride sport bikes again. 12 years later and im still worse then ever.
          for some reason I just cant seen to ride for a day without at least a few clutch ups in 1st or 2nd lol

            Awesome!
            I feel the same way every time I start my ride I always tell myself to just take it easy and enjoy the scenery, but then the faster I go the better everything looks lol You'd think at 45 years old I'd be starting to grow up but then again NEVER!

                      Thanks for sharing that story. I have heard of the movie but never watched it. Now I will for sure.

                        Last weeks weather here completely blew me away! Bright Sunny Darn there into the 60s at points. There was no way I wasnt heading out and putting a few miles on the ole girl. Im pretty sure She felt the same. She fired right up and ran like a raped ape! Now were expecting cold & 2-4 inches of rain this weekend and all I can do Is sit N wait. Come On SUMMER!!!

                            Yea, I told myself I wasn"t goin out till I put a new chain the kat. After hearing all the guys goin up the street n the warm days goin by I was at the local shop getting a new master link to my old chain. Off I went and a ride that supposed to be up the back road for a couple corners n back turned into a 3 hr trip. lol
