Delivered Elk's New Baby!!!
Well kids, the long wait for proud Pappa Elk is over: His 10 came in today.
Naturally, instead of going to the hospital for birth (i.e. letting the dealer uncreate and prep his child), he went for home birthing instead.
We loaded up the whole crate in his trailer with a fork lift and proceeded to the Backmarker Racing Skunk Works.
Sherm ready to deliver the child:
The crowning of the head:

Fresh from the crate:
A proud Pappa and his new baby:

Andy, left out a 0, there:
150,000 word review.
I wouldn't trade Sherm in on anything. He's the friggin' best. I can't think of anyone that I'd rather have the first 10R around here than him.

Anybody know why Red has recieved his bike in Arkansas and I'm still waiting for mine in Dallas? All these pictures circulating around are making me green with envy.

Beats me, Andy. I thought the distribution hub for this region was IN DALLAS! Your dealer needs to call them!

Does the 10 have a rear hugger?
I cant get over that the 10R is actually 4 pounds lighter than my 2000 ZX6R. Thats amazing to me. 4 lbs lighter & 65 HP faster
Wow!
Anyone know where to download some large detailed pics?
