Nice shorts. I like the snap on. Looks good.

Did you have any problems getting the blue gun on the plane to Japan? :D

Thanks yall :)

mgdavis, I draw all my patterns from scratch. Then after I build it, I evaluate then make changes to the pattern to adjust for function or aesthetics. I like the High Ride, and that came from the Original's pattern. The HR (~18*) has less cant than the OP (~32*), but they carry at the same height. I love the look of it, its real sharp. Like, lawman sharp.


Great photos. You ever go all the way to Deception Pass?


fireguzzi, no trouble with the blue guns lol I order online so they get shipped in USPS and pass customs with flying colors.

I've never been to Deception Pass, I'm on the other side of the Sound. I might try to get out that way this summer, it looks like a nice park.

I went to a photoshop seminar, made coffee for friends, then the friends and I went for a walk in the ravine nearby, shot a few photos, then went for dinner at a Greek restaurant nearby.
It's the second best day I've had in a long time.

Don't use the word crash right now...

I avoided a major wipe out yesterday, but wasn't able to avoid the collision. Riding in near stop and go traffic on the freeway, I pulled onto the paved shoulder to strip down my jacket to the mesh level as it was so hot. As I slipped to the side of the road, a small pickup pulled over right into me. Scuffed the fairing, broke the left engine cowling and to top it off, his rear bumper caught my leg as he rolled by... Owww!!!

Luckily I was able to keep the bike up and pulled off the road to exchange info.




Damn that hurts...
