I figured I would post some pictures of my new bike. I picked this one up right after I sold my 02 750. Mods so far include a PC III USB Power Commander, Full Hindle Titanium Exhaust, TRE Mod, Speed Link Adjustable Links, Front Strap, Sporcket Specialist rear sprocket, and polished wheels. There is more to come but I need to get it mapped an dynoed since I just put the exhaust on with the pc.

Is it my eyes or the light that makes that front end look different?

The mirrors are missing... Now why is that?

When you're running faster than anyone else, you don't need to look behind you

Seriously: the first thing I thought is that he's making it done for track...

It does look like track bike: no mirrors, no blinkers.
Nice bike though.

well...not completely.. I would take off the lights, and, most of all, THE PASSENGER PEGS!!! I hate them!

The lights can be taped over, as for the pegs he may be racing with a passenger!

Imagine a track full of bikes loaded with two people!

The 2nd person is the navigator

Sometimes they do during classes. I never took a class where the intructor shows you things while you play the backpack role and never will!

Sport bikes ought to be made for 1 rider only (am I being too fundamentalist?)

No. That is the way it should be.

the only track it has been on so far is the dragstrip. We have quite a few of drag racing shootouts that go on between here and knoxville. I would love to go to a track day sometime soon though. It would be a blast.
