Installed front Engine mount sliders and swingarm sliders. At least if I good up again a good portion of my bike will be protected.

350 miles until next maintenance.

New Possible Jacket

#22 Unread post by RhadamYgg »

Ahhhh I hate not being able to buy stuff....

If I had money I'd buy this jacekt - to me it in yellow - combines the safety factors of my current jacket with a more aggressive look.

It is on my Christmas list anyway. Too bad Christmas is sooo far away.

I know, I know! And there probably won't be any around when I'm allowed to spend again. :(

Hehe, I've spent enough. Too much actually. Which is why even buying a $56 jacket is going to earn me hell from my wife.

But I got a new bike day this year - so that'll have to be enough.

Mallet Finger and yet another jacket deal I'm going to miss

#27 Unread post by RhadamYgg »

So, I haven't been riding lately as I injured my New Jersey State Bird finger in Kickbixing or Karate. I don't know exactly where I hurt it as the adrenaline flows pretty good, but now it is screwed up good.

Anyway, I did actually ride with it messed up. Just this past Sunday - only 12 miles, but it was better than nothing.

I actually dropped my keys in the parking garage and left them (and the bike) there for a whole 2 hour lunch with the family.

They were still there and my bike was still there! Amazing!

So, I keep getting these e-mails from New Enough. They make me drool....

[I know - that's the whole point of advertising]

Joe Rocket Honda Race Suit $429

Ahhhh - not having any disposable income left sucks.

Of course, it does prevent me from being an even bigger dork than I am and riding my Suzuki wearing a Honda Race suit.

I may ride in to work tomorrow. It is supposed to be a nice day. Even though I have the splint on my finger, riding is still manageable.

I'm worried about that too. I tried to do a budget and found the only thing holding everything together was the fact that the bills don't come at the same time.

I haven't read about your accident. Are you well (with the exception of the jacket)? Or was this the day that it seemed like they were gunning for you and the woman hit you from behind?

Be well.
