Poor bastards...

Being derided by your subscribership for article quality and percieved bias is one thing,

but having to ride all these great bikes, in paid for junkets to Spain and other locations,

No thanks...

Need help to test?

As a former road racer and experienced rider(21 years +) I'd be happy to contibute to MO.

I might find some time in my schedule (sp?) for that, one week away won't be that bad for my preparation for ice racing.

Waiting on your call

I can even give a good clean-up to my flame jacket.

I had that custom made a a one piece suit for ice racing, but after it lost a duel with a studded tire, I got part of it rebuilt as a street jacket.

It's pretty much covered in bugs right now since I wear it to work most days, it's around 90 here and we haven't seen rains in ages so the wet/cold gear sty away for now.

Anywhere we can sees pictures of the flame paint job on the 6?

Yamaha US web site is kind of hard to access right now!

Looks hot! Anyone want to purchase a 2002 GSXR1000 that is Red and Black with 1500 mi on it? (dead serious)

Looks nice...I like the black/silver combo. Nice and understated is so much better than gaudy stickers
