Someday Steve, someday......

unfortunately I'm kinda short. I have to tippy toe enough on my 550s. Although I sit a lot lower on the F than i do the K, not sure why. I tried sitting on a 750 once, pretty tall for me.

I agree, very nice bikes you have there


Everyone thinks Chuck Norris is bad, but Chuck Norris has not meet Lucky either.  Lucky will round house kick Chuck back to 1969 and pop a wheel with the 1st sandcast while shotgunning a PBR!

I am positive last night was a wild time. Nothing like Halloween on Broadway Ave. I was tempted to cruise around the city on the Honda last night just to see the crazyness but the wife didn't want to give out candy by herself.
