    My R6 is finally done

    Some of you know that I've been building an R6 to race this season and she's finally done. Just waiting on some pinstripes, do a little more drilling, quickshifter and lightened rear rotor will be here today, and she'll be good to go.

    Here's what I started off with....




    Here's what she looks like meow.

    I rarely think of motorcycles without a little yearning. They are about moving, and humans, I think, yearn to move – it’s in our cells, in our desires. We quiet our babies with cyclic movement, and we quiet ourselves by going.

    Thanks all! I'm pretty happy with the results. Even though my vinyl wrapping are lacking.

    Here's a couple from the last round w/ sponsor stickers and all that jazz.
