Well some of it might have to do with this, my daily...



I tend to be a big fan of serviceable, utilitarian motorcycles. I put about 200 to 250 miles a day on that XR. I see the carbed SS as the last great cafe racer. I can actually learn to and afford to work on it (read modify) and ride it all over the country. I plan to keep the mods within reason and mild. I wanna see just how long this sucker will last. I view my ownership of this bike as a stewardship.

As to track days, that is behind me, at least for now. I do drag race and am building an H1 powered beast for that.

Thank you all for welcoming me and I will sit back and learn for now.
