Any Motorcycle Riders Here?

I just added a 2000 Hayabusa to my stable, something I won't feel bad about modding and can ride everyday without adding miles to my 96' Triumph Daytona 1200. I already have a full carbon fiber body kit for it and will consider a big bore kit w/cams & headwork over the next winter. 220ish rwhp should be enough...for now. You have gotta' love Busa's, pump gas and daily rider reliability with that much horsepower!
BTW, the locals are going in on a group purchase of Life Insurance for me, like playing the lottery in their opinion with better odds.

Then he dropped dead from a massive heart attack while at home.
His crazy antics didn't seam so crazy anymore.
Life it short, kick it in the *** and have some fun. Even if it means waking up on the sidewalk in Las Vegas wearing a bunny suit with a baby monkey hand-cuffed to your ankle.

I was raised on scooters and had a great little independent shop in Deep Elum in Dallas for a few years. Tons of fun..just too crazy and no money. I was lucky enough to babysit Billy Gibbons' bike for a couple years. Just about crashed it once...way scary fast... Gramps took a picture of me and my brother on his 47 Knucklehead...looked for it but can't lay my hands on it.
Sold my road King about four years ago. Stilll have a hand built (my hands) Pan/Shovel (56/81) and am willing to sell if anyone's interested. Just can't bare to part it out. $6,000 - bike is in St. Louis.

That's too bad that you didn't have a chance to finish it. The 500 is an animal compared to the little 350. Never had a chance to ride a Gamma 500 but it should be pretty much the same as the RZ. Was it?

We raced the RZ350 extensively; in fact there was a series in Canada but unfortunately in did not translate to the 500. The RG500 was a different beast and raced succesfully against the 600s and some 750s of the day.
Got pics somewhere in the boxes...........let me look. I alaways loved the lightweight screaming 2 strokes.

Paris is very close to me. Less than 30 miles. Must have been held at the fairgrounds.
