I was in the tire tracks, I held my line, it was def my brand new tires because they only have like 30 miles on them. I was only going like 40. The front slid a touch, just enough to let me know who’s the boss haha.
I was somewhat expecting it, I think I was more scared when the turkey flew out in front of me on campbell lol. I saw him on the side and knew turkeys couldn’t fly, but this fucker flew across the road and was like 5 ft off the ground. Woulda been a sweet headshot. I totally would have put his head under the strap on the pass seat and taken him home to eat if I killed him.
I’ve had a brief run in with a turkey before but I was going slow enough to stop and let him cross. What kinda calipers you getting Tim?

I want better brakes, everyone on the forums use them and say they are the best upgrade they ever made. Off of a zx14, they come with vesrah pads.

Got out with EvoMR for a bit, nice ride into lockport. Almost hit a turkey lol. Finally got a chance to somewhat open it up. Took it 3/4 throttle through 1st to like 80 and backed off. The powerband is much smoother with the new mods. Just have to get a battery that had enough CCA’s to turn the POS over without resetting my clock lol.
Nice ride. That was only 3/4 throttle?!
You aint done,nothing’s ever done!
