News since my last post:
I went out and bought that Triumph Daytona 675. I have no pics yet, but they're pretty easy to google if you don't know what they look like
The gixxer has (more or less) been passed to the g/f now.
I had the 675 broken in on a dyno..110hp at the wheel. The greatest thing about the bike isn't it's handling, or it's power though... it has a really nice, easy to read clock in the guage cluster..
Seems stupid, but I have a time problem

You bought a bike for it's clock, what's the world coming too...hope you (or anyone else) don't start buying helmets because of their reflection of you or gear based on how well it fits in a suitcase.
Cadre: You'd never think that someone would get injured or more so killed learning to ride a motorcycle until you see it happen or have the MSF instructors telling you all the horror stories that they witnessed. Surely before I became a rider by taking the MSF, I didn't think one did have the possibility of getting injured just learning so long as they didn't get stupid. The injury and death waiver as well as the lecture about past MSF beginner injuries definitely changed my mind as did seeing beginners having "get off's" on 125 and 250 cc bikes at slow speed. Sadly the non-motorcycling public doesn't realize that learning to ride has it's risks just as actual riding does.
