Sure, it is an amazing machine, and with both OEM and Race bodywork it really is a gem that you can use. It has a whisker under 2,000 miles on it, and is a non-ABS 2008, bike #20 of 225.

I'm somehow reminded of the movie 'Beetlejuice'.

Try saying his name three times if you miss him :-).

I think Ken is on some kind of limited access. Maybe self-imposed. This forum has its good qualities and its bad qualities. Its users run the spectrum from Christians to "attack dogs." The line on what is or is not tolerated seems to move with the tides as determined by some invisible seniority system. It is titled a "Tech" forum, but more often than not, it is a blog. Basically, this forum has run out of new topics on the technical side because both of the subject bikes have been out of production for 6 and 4 years respectively. As the old-heads often point out to the neused bike owners, the thread with the answer to their question has probably been asked and answered. That would explain why the most viewed thread has become ckcarr's western art gallery. It is indeed a fine gallery, ck. This time next week I hope to be wobbling my way back to Georgia along the Natchez Trace and some other less traveled roads. I doubt I'll take many stunning photos like ck and others here or that the edges of my tires will have boogers on them like many of our former roadracers; but, I will have had a quiet solo ride that I'll remember when I'm sitting in my rocking chair at the nursing home. Ken, I hope all is well. I'd like to see a photo of you plowing the snow out of the front 40 acres.

I still have questions, and I'm still going to ask them.
The search function isn't always the most reliable tool.

I hope Cage works on his bike more...........OR............gets a faster bike over the next few months. I want him to stay safe and well...............and if he tries to keep up with Shreds HP2......that condition may get dicey and compromised. The KTM mentioned is one fast puppy however and I have had them simply slip away in the really tight stuff. Let us know Cage if you get one.
