I went riding last night since it was a wonderful day out and the night was even better. Wasn't cold and the cool crisp air was perfect for riding. While out riding before I meet up with Matt(N4S) I decided to say the hell with it and just open it all up. I am at a rolling start when the light turns and I lay down on the bike and just go. Reaching 130 and then 140 and finially 150. I was felling the wind blow over my back and she was screamin to go faster. Finally reaching 158 and looking forward to the bend in the road I let off the throttle and slow down. God did that feel awsome.

Later Matt comes over and we go out riding. He and I are doing 130's and 140's. Last night was a great night for riding. At one point there was just way to much $hit blowing across the road but didn't stop us. Well, I slowed down a bit to be sure but then picked the speed back up and we were at it again. I am going to dislike having to park her for the winter. But atleast I was able to go out and riding her like she likes to be. :dthumb:

Yeah, that was fun...we went riding till like, 1:30 I think it was..just out having a blast. We were passing each other left and right..first him, then me, then him, then me. The first jaunt we did down Rt. 30, I only hit about 120 or so, then on the second, I got up to 140 and still had plenty of throttle left, and then backed off with the upcoming bend and traffic up ahead. :here:

Yeah we had a blast alright ! Hoping to get a couple more of those in before the season is out...hey, my birthday is coming up soooooo. ;)

Have no fear..yes we were on a highway, but next to no cars out there, and we know the road like the back of our hand.

just had the urge to get out there and get it on 1 last time b/4 winter. Trust me, im as careful as can be when you're doing 140 mph. :rolleyes:

The only difference is that I'll do all that in any amount of traffic!! And I do mean any!! That is why Ghostrider is my idol!! Crazy or not I love it and if you don't like it, don't worry, you'll be behind me anyway!!! :sorry: :cheers:

its alot of fun at night, but you do have to keep an extra eye out for hidden cops and animals, more so than during the day

Well, YES & NO!!! The good thing at night is that the cop has no idea what kind or color your bike is. Just keep the speed up or even go faster then duck and hide!!!

this is true, and if I see him b/4 DJ does, I can just blame him.. :lol: but thats a good point about the color and all, especially if his headlights are off.

At the speeds we were going last night, when we fly past him all he would have seen was a blur. And oh yes, I would have opened her up even more if a cop would have came out of no where. :D

That was they only thing that was going throught my head was a small animal or a deer. I already had in my head what I was going to do if I saw a deer. Opne the throttle all the way and lay down on the bike and hold on for deer life. LOL Split that beotch right in the middle. :dthumb:

Well, I really have to think about the whole color thing with the burnt orange/gold color I'm sportin!!!

One of the times I had to twist 'er open when a popo was going to come after me...it was at night. He lasered me at like 78 ish in a 55...I went by him at about 70 and was like F this!! I was GONE BIG TIME!!! He didn't know what color, brand, or style the bike is, just that it is a sportbike. :smoke:

Heck I even know a few guys that put a switch on their bike to kill all the lights on the bike but the dash lights!!! But I'm sure it's all for show.... :whistle:
