Don't know for sure. I'd kind of like to just because they have bikes and they will let me ride them. But will have to see. I was expecting not to have to work Friday, but I may be on the hook. Or... we'll see how this afternoon goes but I may still be on jury duty, but I really hope not.

The only one I'd be interested in is the R1

I wouldn't mind trying the Venture/Eluder, just for the hell of it. Too bad the NIKEN won't be there.

Looks like I'm out for riding this weekend. I was turning a corner in the parking deck this morning on the GS when the rear tire slid out. I put my left foot down and twisted my ankle. Hurts like hell. Hoping I didn't do any damage to my ankle. The bike stayed up.

Looks like another Yamaha demo day on March 29th and 30th. I don’t see R1 on the list of bikes, but I have Friday off so I will likely go to the Hurst location. Probably should have started a new thread.... Jeff?
