Figured I would get in a ride with some buds before I go to the mountians and get ruined. Got a chance to spread the wings and fly today. Only did about 150 miles today. Gotta clean and lube the chain now. Gotta love getting out for a romp around the local twisties. Oh yea anyone reconige the bike next to the bird at breakfest?

Well, there weren't too many built with a front swing arm...

so I will guess the GTS1K.

a gts of course did it have the factory hard bags on it

my test ride on the gts was great (if you ignore that ABS-test where i realized the ABS was dead... )

So Tom, how does the GTS compare to your bird?

haha - do you need to compare 100hp to 164hp?

It's a fun bike. But I'll stick to my bird. The guy that owns that one has 4 more in his garage as well. It felt good to watch some of them drop back at 150, cause it was all they had. Almost ran down an RC51, but ran out of road before we had to shut it down. But I was gaining on him. The 1KRR was just gone. He had way too big of a lead. I was running in the back when the 1KRR and RC took off. When I realized they were becoming dots. I had some ground to make up. THe bird did well. I am really liking the pull this thing has on the high end. It can be addicting. I will have to behave.

I was more interested in the suspension and cornering comparison, but I forgot you were in FLA where there are no corners. Or hills.

A llittle warm out today again. But just got home from another awesome ride. 6 of us for today. Was shooting some vid today also. So I'll have to take a look and see what I got.
