Braver than I am, posting the SN out there on the web. LOL

Sweet looking pistol.

 

Man I think I got a couple of yall trying to move in lol!

 

Shit. In the world that I live in, you would be hard pressed to make me flinch.

 

You have all the fun toys, so it's kind of expected. LOL

 

Did a lot of trading recently. Picked up that tractor from a trade I did with a guy that owns a store intown.
Part of it was upgrading my 9mm.

 

Just that some assholes will call in a firearm as stolen and give a serial number. Causes headaches. Same reason I don't throw out the boxes, unless I destroy everything with the SN on it first. If they have the original package and I don't have the receipt to prove it's mine, then it's a headache I don't want.

 

Same for me, I could have “handled” a 600 or even something like an S1000RR and I had a lot of fun riding my cousins S1K in the twisties but I prefer light weight over HP, and the RC is ~75 lb lighter than the BMW.

 

It really is a blast to me. Would I enjoy a bigger bike......probably.....but I'm nowhere near unhappy with the little bike.

 

Cheaper maintenance and insurance helps as well!

 

No kidding. Full coverage with 3K coverage for add-ons is only $100 a year. My oil change kit is like $25, a set of tires for $130ish, $11ish(3.4 gal) to fill up with 93 for 210 miles

 

Had something new happen to me today, my freaking visor froze over. Temps varied between 20 and 23 degrees on my lunch ride to walk the dog and on the way back in the freezing fog completely coated my visor, windshield, everything. Brrrrr. Grabbed my heated vest before I went back in and I'm glad I did.


This was just a random dirt clod on the sidewalk thats grown ice spikes with the freezing fog and wind. Kind of wild.

 

What brand helmet? I'm a fan of solid white ones

I've been a fan of it. Super comfy. My biggest gripes are it doesn't have a good "just barely cracked" detent for around town use and the shell size is huge for me. They only have 3 I think across all sizes so I'm stuck with a 3xl shell on an xl interior.

 

My Suomy is a 2XL, HJC is XL, O'Neal XL......so an XL may be good for me.

 

I'm throwing in the towel on commuting on the RC390 and taking the bus tomorrow. The ride to the gym and then home was so tiring.

 

Balmy 23 degrees this morning for my ride to work. Heated gear cranked way up. Supposed to be in the 50's this afternoon, hope to get the 2013 washed thoroughly so I can start installing stuff this weekend.

 

Maybe cut out the gym and you'll have more energy for riding.

 

yuuup paying for a house and trying to have toys sucks lmao

agreed i can handle a bigger bike but i know what ill do with a bigger bike so prob not the best for me lol

cant remember how much i pay but my coverage covers everything on my bike including my gear so if i go down they will replace everything including the bike if it gets totaled which they valued at 5k oddly enough lol but i think its like 15 a month? for full coverage
