Wow, never seen a stretched S1000RR before. How does it treat you at the strip?

And welcome! You should definitely come to a ride or a bike night, I look forward to seeing that bike in person. :D

I wont even stretch my 14 because I want it to handle corners well. Now if I was to get another bike then I would lower, stretch, turbo, nitro, supercharge, fat tire, air shift, and DIE! Now that would be FUN!

I can still turn, not drag knee turn but doing that on the street isn't the smartest thing to do anyway lol.

True ... What I was meaning by that is I want to be able to take my bike to twisty tracks still..... It is my all purpose bike.

Next bike night is not till Feb. 9th. As for rides, with the weather the way it is you'll just have to watch the ride section to see if one pops up. I'm thinking about leading one Friday but haven't decided yet, and the forcast is looking like Sunday could be a good. Maybe one of the other Ride Leaders will do one.

I told Fixxer if you do, I might just have to take off Friday to enjoy this :D

I'm just curious but I am guessing she is used primarily for drag racing? How long have you been drag racing? Do you take her out on some twisty backroads or commute with her? She is nice looking ride tho!
