I would love to just have a destination... no time restraints, no route planned, no anything. Just an end point.
I agree...I'm thinking about taking time off to get down to the Suches Rally...We'll see if my Schedule works out for that (And Money)

drag racing, not road racing. my three choices are basically a 9.50 index, 9.90 index or 10.70. i dont want to run brackets anymore. i could launch it real easy, short shift 1-2-3 and run 10.7's all day, or live just alil past the limit of the bikes potential (as it sits now) tryn to run 9.5's. id just pick whichever class has the most ppl in it at the first race and stick with that, but thatll probably be the 10.7 class and honestly that feels slow. so idk

and i didnt mean i didnt wana hang off, i just meant i didnt wana hang all the way off the seat just tryin to touch my knee to the ground. i wana do it the right-ish way, gd/decent(lets be honest, it wont be perfect lol) position, smooth, comfy, etc

Hmmm, RIDE. MORE. I'd like to rack up 8-10K miles this year.

Finish up a few mods on the R1.

Do a track day.

Keep the rubber side down.
