Keep in mind the hard feelings generated by flaunting your "get out of jail free" card in a public forum. Grrr. There's no reason you deserved that treatment more than someone else.

Don't you think if ignorance was truly bliss, there would be a lot more happy people in this world?

Oh yeah, bought a new helmet today , now I have to paint my bike to match.

You may want to stop and consider whether or not it's worth wearing that helmet just to look cool:

It could cost you your life.

186mph(speedo) then the govenor kicked in. I was a little upset because my Tre mod didn't seem to work. I've fixed it but don't really care to get it that fast any time soon.

115mph on I-80 just past Boreal Ski resort, CA. Yeah Baby, Yeah!!!! 600 miles on my 03 sv650s; tachometer was reading - ??? %%%% I don't know, I was watching the road. Interesting: all stock tires and suspension, but the bike was smooth, smooth, smooth.
