LOL I was rippin around on the Blast earlier. I like that bike more and more every time I ride it.

I scared myself a couple of times on that run, especially when the front end broke loose a bit on a real hairy rain slick turn. I've heard you are pretty sick on the XR. I don't know if I'm up to that challenge.

I hope the Blast wasn't too deafening for the guys chasing me.

We need to do HH Run II this year. Has Tramp got the S2 back on the road?

Just trucked my M2 down from Lake George, probably did over 200 miles on a broken front isolater bracket that had 3 threads left on the broken bolt holding the good side on. Ya, that was not a typo. Go figure. That's like beyond luck. Air on one side of the bracket, 3 threads on the other. I'm a believer.

There was a noticeable but moderate increase in vibration. It was VERY windy, so I guess I chalked it up to that. I didn't even see the broken mount until we were out 30 or 40 miles into the twisties around Lake George yesterday! That was a nervous and gentle ride back to the lake house! Of course, I thought I still had a good bolt holding it all together at that point.

On the subject of Bear Mtn, the weekly bike/car show started last week. I saw only one buell there.

Perhaps tonight there'll be a bigger turnout? (wink wink nudge nudge)

Y'all ever thought of starting a Storm Fronts thread?
It'd be the way to go.
Y'all wouldn't have to worry about a thread getting buried and you could stay more organized, also it'd be a good way to keep all your photos in one spot.
Just a suggestion...

Never really put any thought into that. Me thinks it's a good idea, hopefully we all get on the same page now. Thanks Glitch
