Damn! I forgot about this. We're riding the hills Friday, but now I may have to think about it.
Actually, I might be a little afraid to take the R1M to the track again until I get an ABS or fiberglass body for it. I hit a rock last summer on Guanella Pass. It barely scratched my right fairing, but I wanted it replaced. I shit a brick when I found out that the body panels on my bike are over $1,500 each. The rock also put a hole in my oil pan. That little rock cost me over $8,000 to repair everything. Carbon fiber and magnesium from Yamaha are not cheap!!
BTW - How the hell are we supposed to change our avatars? I've been trying for almost a year. Doesn't work...
Believe me replacement parts from Ducati aren't cheap either That's why I have a track bike.
I think an Admin has to get involved to change Avatars. Maybe PM Chadwick or Rybo.
Have fun if you go to the hills. It should be nice.
