And some of you never been on a race track such as Daytona, Homestead Miami- International, or Jennings? Leave your cold as fvck states and come ride the real twisties, such as those here in FL! 
And some of you claim to ride and your cold states don't even have uhmm...not even one worthy track huh?  
I'll be blistering the mountain twisties during the hot summer months, until then I'll stay in FL 
You people kill me..... "lets go ride the twisties I'll blow you away blah blah blah" its fvckin'20 below in the miserable places where twisties are
Uhmmm bring those bikes to FL and register at the tracks with us!
We had both my 14 and my gf's R1for a week in New Orleans and then in Miami for the following week,
we got back on Dec 10. Warm is nice, being down on power due to the hot and humid air is not.
My local tracks are in NH and NJ, not really my fault that MA doesn't have a track. I still did upward of 10 last year
with TTD. We trailered to Road Atlanta and to VA on separate ocassions.
We also trailered to the Dragon for 4 years in a row, but I couldn't make the trip in 09
due to my ankle injury.
We have two race-only bikes at home- her 07 gsxr 1000 and my 08 gsxr 750.

i've been to palomar before and vowed to never go on a weekend again. I saw 4 people carried out on stretchers in a span of about 5 hours of riding and bullshitting. When i was commuting from winchester to coronado every day I used to take a detour and ride the mountain before work sometimes. I was stock wheelbase then though.

I have talked to one of the voulenter fire men there at Palomar Mtn He said the motorcycles accidents arnt bad compared to these wana be sport car drifters at 2:00 AM in the morning crashing and burrning in the middle of the night.

Well it's at the dealership and I must say it is impressive. Looks much better in person. I saw the dark grey model.
I'm 6'5 and it fits me better than anyother literbike I've tried, plenty of room. They don't have the keys for a test ride yet (its a little cold for a real test anyway) but they will soon. I may just take the California Superbike school on their bike this time (instead of the 14) to really check it out before making my final decision.

Have not seem one yet in DFW Texas area yet. I'm 6'3" so most 1000's are a 30 minute
ride for me. Old back gets sore. Really want to see this new bike. Doubt I will trade the 14
to buy one.
