All I got to say is during the last two days I've hammered the living duck shit outta Krzy8. The sister passed, so here I am in Az town again for yet another grounding.

Given unfortunate circumstances, the riding timeline has been very compressed.

Which means lots of, uhhh, how do I say it, 'nominal rally speed'? Yep, that's the ticket, pun intended. Let's just say she's never been that long at that rpm in 5th EVER!

Found some back roads that are truly untravelled. And un-patrolled. Heehaw as Fairlaner would say.

​Even I-10 from Phoenix to Tucson.. traveling in a 20 car pack, at a loafing 90... but still, 90!

I did, however, back out from a Hayabusa.. He well over 120 and I didn't have the cajones for that game level... https://www.fjrforum.com/forum//public/style_emoticons/default/****.gif

..and know what? She's running stronger and cleaner, leaner and meaner. It's almost like these engines need a good dose of high rpm, constant load, over long time durations to be truly happy.

Oh, and I paid 1.59 for UnoCal premium in Az. Dayum, life is good.

RIP. The reason for the ride sucks but what a good way to blow the cob webs out and move on. Like has been said " shit happens so go fast and stay ahead of it"
