Very nice pics. You may have talked about this before, but how does the 1190 compare to the 1125?

Surprisingly different. It feels so much smaller and lighter. I am still trying to wrap my head around the entry speed.
Nice pajamas.
Kevlar pajamas - for a bullet proof love life!

Those pics made me realize how small the frontal area of that bike is. Looks 600ish...

Smaller actually. The guy right behind me here is on an R6. Bulky by comparison, even under a guy who's about 6'6".

I suspect the majority of the R6's bulk is coming from the eight rolls of painters tape he has on the thing...wow.

Could you hear it approaching as the wind whistled through all that tape?? ; )

I'm thinking the third bike is a Honda 600RR

Yeah, his name is Travis and he just got new plastics from a crash and didn't want them nicked up with rocks. He's a very fast street rider just starting to race, so street bike = track bike. He really is about 6'4" and makes that R6 look like a toy. He can drag a knee in the pits.

Very cool pictures.
That first one looks like you've got a passenger.

Rob- big fan of all your youtube uploads- especially the race bike repair: )

What Kevlar pajamas are you rocking here? The selection at my local Nordstrom's was decidedly not abrasion-resistant.

Motoport GP2 Kevlar two piece. Crash tested at over 100mph by yours truly. Not a scratch or bruise.

Hmmmm - I have an old Motoport one-piece leather suit. made in England.
Got it for $100.
When I lo-sided Loretta at 20 mph it completely protected me, no holes in the leather.
Couple of "soft spots", no bruises.

Good kit

That third bike is an Aprilia RSV 1000. Looks exactly like a buddy of mines. Here is a pic of one.
