Have a nice day!

Round trip airfare from Minneapolis to Tucson = $329

Four day rental of '05 Buell XB9SX = $385

Burning rear tire off said rental making smiley faces = PRICELESS!!

I bet that rental company starts buying the cheapest tires available if they keep getting worn out that fast! How did you like the Buell?

I have one almost identical to it at home. It was fun. It was made for the roads I was riding on down in Tucson.

Yes

Thought I recognized it. We have friends that live just below it, and that's where we go when we visit. Is the road finished all the way to the top now??

Killer pics BTW. How was the Buell in the twisty bits??

It's finished all the way to the top. 27 miles of bliss! It's like a baby's ass all the way up.

My parents' place is about 3 minutes from there. I spent a whole day last week tearing up and down.

Short of a supermotard, nothing can catch a properly ridden XB on roads like that. Just ask the couple of other bikers that played cat & mouse with me. One was on a TLR1000 and the other was on an '04 R6.
