Made some changes since my last post in this thread. Kerker Meg (yeah baby!), different bodywork (Canadian blue, stripes flipped on the tank), black wheels.

She's normally blue but I was bored and plasti dipped her the other day to match my helmet. For gear I have a shark speed r helmet, teknic leather jacket, full gauntlet gloves and a set of knee pads when I go play aggressively on the twisties. As for the bike it has a traxxion emulator kit, adj rear shock and a juice box pro. Love my little twin but I'm really getting an itch for a street triple r.

Dont know if you are serious about the plasti-dip... but it does look bad ass.

Um yeah. It was a pain too. Doing multiple colors takes some patience and after I got it perfect riding it tore the dip on the tank which originally had some white on it.. I then found an awesome product called 3m defender. Gave the flat a satin sheen and really good durability. Best of all it all peels right off when you get tired of it. Thank you for the compliment, it was a lot of work just to match a helmet.

Bike history:
95 Honda CBR 600 - D&D pipe, stock everything else
02 Aprilia RSVR - Great bike out of the box, Full ohlins, brembo, carbon fibre, etc

I worked for a motorcycle dealer called National Power Sports in NH for about 6 years. Got the opportunity to ride most every bike on the market at some point or another. Would take a dealer plate for the weekend for bikes I really liked.

Fast forward a couple years I just picked up my new ride...
07 Ducati Multistrada 1100s

I posted this in a new thread but it doesn't seem to be getting too much traffic so I figured I'd share it here with fellow motorcycle brethren. I know there a few of you guys who also ride moto(or used to) so I wanted to share a video I made. I've been gathering footage with my GoPro for the last month or so and decided to throw together a short vid. The footage is mostly from Highland MX Park but there is also a little bit from War Eagle MX in Auburn, AL and also a friends private track here in Newnan, GA. I took about 3 years off from racing/riding and have only been back on the bike for a few months and definitely don't have the speed that I did when I was younger, lol. So I haven't made an actual video edit in a few years either, so go easy on me but I would like to hear some feedback. Thanks for watching!

Man, all of those tracks look nice. I wish I was in good enough shape to ride MX again. It would be fun to teach my sun to fly. LOL.

Most of the parks I went to as a kid were riddled with trees. If you messed up, it was a painful lesson. The upside was, off-roading from 5 until 15, I transitioned to a street bike with zero issues and ready for damn near anything.

Yeah, we are very fortunate that there are some really good tracks here in the southeast. I ride trails every once in a while but trees don't give if you hit them and my son(he is 7) prefers the track too.

Going to get my new bike! My last one was a CBR 954R. Such a drastic change! I guess I'm getting older, but I've always loved the chopper style with straight bars.

Damn that's sexy! Mind if I ask how much? Based on looks alone, that would prob go for $20k for "used" around here.

That's about what I would have thought also. Picking it up for 10k. Awesome deal!! There is 13k in drivetrain alone!!
