Yeah I have been watching that one on FB as well, weird it's listed as a TE when it's def an FE.

 

can it be a bargaining point?

 

Doubt it, the bike is accurately priced. The bargaining point is that it has been ridden hard based on the wear marks around the plates. I dug into the whole sticker works, that company sponsors several people, and that bike was ridden by one of the companies owners.

 

why do you hurt me like this

 

How bout some boost?

This has a little blower

 

Sick! That thing probably wheelies in 6th even with the swing arm extension

 

This is what I was really excited about when I got my FZ. But I dont think it ever was released to the US. Its called the Street Rally.



Plus some promotional stuff that I saw that got me to buy:

@Doc Samson I think you should get a FZ/MT09

Interesting never heard of the Street rally. I remember reading an article about the FZ-09 when it came out and instantly wanting it. Blurple wheels are the shit! I like the Arrow header better though it hugs a little closer to the engine vs the Akra. @Doc Samson definitely needs one

 

That’s a sweet looking road!

 

Speaking of turbos, I'm glad Jalopnik has some bike writers on staff now:

I plan on watching that build video tonight.

 

It's not you... it's me. And really, the MT 07 would likely do me just fine but, you know, those track day fantasies, man!

Sooooo, got the estimate for an Ohlins rear shock and fully adjustable forks... $2800. Still keeps me under the price Dulles Motorcycles wanted for their R version, and with a much, much better setup to boot. Gonna mull it over for a couple days before making a serious decision...

 

now @uurx , me, and @w.adventures have to find you a suitable replacement

 

Brandywine Creek State Park - some of my favorite roads in that area

@Doc Samson my vote is to get a sv650 as a dedicated track bike!

 

I thought he doesn't want fairings and 35+ mpg ?!

 

My wife has been very tolerant of my obsessiveness over the last couple of weeks. I don't think I'd bring up getting a third bike to her, even as a joke, right now...
