      Good boots would have prevented that injury.

        I've got a project, if you want another.

        It's a 98-01 R1. Cliff notes: Friend bought it, lost 2nd gear, sat outside for 5-6 years, friend and I meet kid with a shitload of R1 parts he knows nothing about (bought an R1 that came with a bunch of spares and never rode it), I acquire all of these parts, drag R1 to my house + parts, swap motor/etc.

        I've started it, but never got the carbs right (I hate carbs). Missing the plastics and stuff, but I have a few harnesses, two frames, two sets of wheels, two sets of forks, etc etc. I'm local. I want like $500.



        If I don't sell it I'll probably end up taking the carbs to a shop to have them fixed and turn it into another track fighter.

              Yeah, the frame with the engine in it now has a clean title. :)

                  It's raining here in San Diego (riding season all year round) and I seen 3-4 bikes just out on the street currently with no covers. Is that a thing?

                            Recently made the trip from los angeles to san diego on my vfr800. Did the same trip a couple of months ago with the stock seat and I don't even think a blow job could of helped the old boys down south. Now I have a corbin and I could get off and walk around like a champ! Anyone else have similar experiences with corbin or better with seargant etc?

                              I heard alot of bad things about the corbin for the ducati monsters, I plan on getting a sergeant instead

                                Interesting. It's not at all 'foamy' like my stock seat but it's still firm. I find myself sliding just an inch or two after a while on it but that's it. Would be interesting to sit on a sergeant.

                                Sooo I want to start listening to music while riding but my helmet is like a wind tunnel. I'm saving for another helmet but in the mean time can anyone recommend low profile noise cancellation head phones or ear buds?
