I hate smokin, we always stop at restaurants so maybe desert. Scott did ride with the infamous "Pie Riders" after all. I've seen these guys - they can eat.

Thanks all for the kind words. It's been a workin progress since I bought her in april of 04. The day after I brought her home I tore her down and stripped all the parts of paint and primer, cut up the rear fender (nobody sold elimination kits then), custom made my own elimination set-up and painted it. Found some rizoma mirrors, and small blinkers. Been fooling with it ever since.

John, talk to me about the rear disc. I have cracked three stainless steel units to date (in 29k miles), when I'm shootong pictures I tend to "drag" the rear brakes, cause the throttle is on "cruise control", open throttle, dragging rear brake = Mucho Heat.

I was trying to figure how you were able to do that and still keep up with folks. Was watching a video Scott made while they were out there for Cambria last year and it didnt make sense to me. He did say you've dropped a few cameras before - that made sense - which is why I'm still skeert to try it. ;)

John's rear rotor was custom-ordered-made, but he dont use the brakes - "they slow you down."

Hawkenz - The last thing you want to do is spend any money on a wave rotor and then destroy it with "Heat"... they work really well, but it wouldn't last very long the way you abuse 'em
