CEO & Bergs saw me do the part in bold, and were doing the asking in the first. As an addition to the first, maybe "1a" so to speak, perhaps we should add "You're pretty sure you're all right, but have a really hard time convincing anyone else of it"?Quote:

As for a deterrent to try to talk people out of wanting to ride your bike......just say no kids. Easy as that.
Still not carrying enough speed through 3 for me to do that yet. Guess that's the challenge in riding an SV. You need to carry a shitload of speed exiting corners, so the 600 supersports don't blow by you.Quote:

Took it for a ride today, not hard at all to adjust to so far...only shift-related issue was starting in second at one point instead of first because I went down from neutral out of habit. Fortunately, it was flat there.
The non-shift related issue is that my speedo and odometer crapped out, which is rather unfortunate, but I'll deal with that tomorrow afternoon or sometime next week.

Racebike is GP, Streetbike is regular. :dunno:
I might change the streetbike to GP but all the MSF bikes are regular so... I don't race enough to justify it.
Just sneak in when no one's looking and switch one of the MSF bikes to GP and use that for demos.Quote:

Ok...so Gilles or Woodcraft? Besides the price difference factor.
Discuss...
Woodcraft. PERIOD. Local boys.
:plusone:
Sure the Gilles are purdy, but Woodcraft = budget minded, reliable pimpness. :twothumb:
hmmmm i really want to switch my bike to GP shift now lol. I dont like feeling my boot in between the pavement and shift lever when i hit the corners hard.
I dont think they make on looks like i may be getting creative
I have some Gilles in stock so you can check them out. I also have tons of Woodcraft in stock along with a display bike with Woodcraft rear sets.
Woodcraft is for the real riders/racers. Extremely functional and well made with all replacement parts available.
Gilles is extremely pretty and well manufactured, but you're paying allot more for the artwork and getting the same if not less performance factor.
Come visit us. We're open until 8pm. tonight.
