How about a 300hp, 1000cc supercharged Ninja H2R:

If that rides anything like a turbo bike then no thank you! Probably wants to stand up on the rear constantly. My R1 was running about 135-140 hp at the wheel, and after 10k rpms was an absolute beast!
My next bike will be a 600 track bike, a Honda 1000RR, or the Kawasaki 1400cc sport touring bike they have. I'm jealous though Doobs. Haven't had a bike in 5 years and it hurts to see them on the road. Even worse are pics of the Dragon being tore up by my old riding buddies.
Show the girl off when you get her in the garage!

That H2 has winglets to help the front end stay down. And I'm sure the supercharger is much smoother than a turbo... so it should be a super safe bike. ;)

Whodat, it's in CA buddy. You'll probably turn off the 40 by then though. If you have any other email addresses get at me. Or you can always use the dreaded FB.

I'll be recording video of taking possession (that is to say: HER taking possession of ME), snapping some pics in the parking lot, and will have my helmet cam charged & ready for the ride home.
:-)
The guy messaged me back that he's going to the storage area with the mechanic who assembled them to help pick the best one in inventory (hope that's not code for "We're dumping this lemon on you, you naive little toad."). ;-)
Depending on the loan approval process, next week will be a little more green for me than previously. :-)

And there's tons of aftermarket performance upgrades & accessories for this bike, so I'll slowly add stuff, starting with good tires, then double bubble windscreen, rear shock & front springs, then intake/exhaust, then ECU.

It's actually a possibility jig, if we end up going to San Fran from Zion the southern rout would take us through baker,,, SF is still up in the air.

I'll holler at you through FB when we decide,,, would be pretty sweet though.

@jigfresh :

If I do a custom paintjob, it would be something like the Flying Tigers insignia on the P-40 Warhawks fighting over Southeast Asia & China during WWII...



But I'd do the airbrush work to make it detailed and fully shaded, as well as more realistic and modern & "scary".
Would do the full camo treatment: olive drab green, tan, and grey underside, use drops of glue along the edges of panels to simulate rivets, etc.

Just one thought that comes to mind.

It's mine...

!!!!!!!


The loan was approved, and I'll be bringing in the scooter by 4:30pm and meeting the wife there to sign off on everything and be done with it.
:-)
Happened faster than I expected.
So, crap, I have some stuff to do to, prep the scooter, and old parts to collect & box up.
Just cleaned the bong and smoking on this:
