Which do you like to ride more? The Katoom or the Duc?

Well, the Duck is a little light on power, and the KTM is insane in just about every way. No comparison really....

Now to stroke the ego... Bruce, you look AWESOME in all black! Can you do that dance for me?

Did you mean that dance or THAT dance? I don't shake it for money any more....... At $3.00 a dance I've moved on to other money making opportunities...

Either will do!

But seriously I was referring to this one...

Ouch. It's my TOURING jacket, and I wear it when it's cold.....and apparently it makes me look like Shrek.
And on my birthday even....

Oh crap, I'm in trouble. Really really really big trouble.

Happy birthday!!!!



PS: I asked Mike if he wished you a Happy BD on Monday but he said he forgot!!!!!!!!!!

Very true. That's like comparing a Featherweight to a Light Heavy.

The SR4 would be a more valid comparison. Have you ever ridden a SR4?

I had a go at a late model S4Rs with the Testretta engine. It was a hoot, however it felt much like a weighted down S2R with a big punch. Much more engine than chassis, and it would not be able to hang with the Duke on a twisty road. Like everything Ducati though it sounded way better than the KTM and looks much better too. I wouldn't trade though.

Yeah that's a very good analogy. The SR4s actually feels large compared to even the SR2-1000 which(especially with its dimunitive seat height) actually feels like a tiny bike in comparison. Yeah the SD ain't pretty but boy can it kick a$$! But in terms of looks, that pearl white SR4s with the red trellis has got to one of the most gorgeous nekked ever.

Dear High_Side,

Please go touring and take pictures. Too many letters and words, not enough riding pictures to fuel my day dreams of the road while at the office.

Will do. The days are counting down until I'm blasting off at the end of June for a solo tour. Where? I have no idea, and that's the best part.

As you are the owner of two of my favorite bikes (the V-Rod and the 1125), you should really do the same. I'm glad to hear that people actually like reading riding blogs and looking at the pictures as much as I do. Who knows, I might even find something else of substance to post up sooner than later
