So, today, a 'spirited' ride home on Wabs, Twowheelnut's DL650. Found a kinky, kranky, goat-roady, nasty piece of tarmac, and since it's my bday and all, decided to just hang it out and run it..

..and got the feeling that this bike, a stupid little dl650, was the fastest piece of iron to ever lay tracks across the tarmac!

...wondering,

has it really been that long since KrZy8 has been out of service? :huh:

Somehow, it all gets down to what you are used too.

IMHO, of course!

:****:

Hugs n' Kisses

 
Hows the say'in go...more fun to ride a slow bike fast than a fast bike slow!

True dat', G!

I'm thinking I can ride the little dl faster in tight off camber corners/twisties faster than miss piggie fjr..

The wide handlebars, less weight, and really, if she gets tossed, it's alot less money for plastic!

(Had some serious fun on way home tonight!)

Glad to hear it Don.

 
Would of thought you would ridden something more interesting (as in way more fun) like a KTM or Husqvarna or Husaberg :rolleyes: :D

 
I can tell you it is a waste of time to try to keep up with Highlander when he feels like leaving you on his baby strom. I'm sure Don isn't much different.

LOL, on a *good* day I can keep Dave in sight, on pavement.

Pretty sure I can dust him in the dirt tho... ;)

 
It was your birthday?

Well Happy Freakin Belated Birthday you Old Phucking Phart! I have no idea how old you are, but damn! You're freaking OLD!!!!

Hugs & Kisses,

:finger:

 
Hey Don are you an old fart like me now? I am still miffed that you went to dinner with your Harley friends instead of attending my birthday dinner last summer at Mill Valley. In fact you are not only an old fart but a crazy old fart. So take that.

Hey, I truly want to wish you a happy birthday and nothing but the best in the future.

 
Uhm, Don, ol' buddy...ol' pal....

Just wait until you get Krzy8 back, fixed and good-as-new. You'll crank twist the throttle like on WABS and loft the front wheel..... :blink:

That'll be fun! :dribble:

:rofl:

:yahoo:

 
True dat on both posts!

Wabs won't lift the front unless a huge advantage....

..and Thanks Beachy!
