- b) A propensity to race or beat the hell out of the bike
- The bike was also the only color which I really wanted: Black.
- I would have bought it if it were any color (almost) but who wants
- to look down and see a blinding Puke Green?
-
- Man, was it a cold ride home. ~180 miles. It must have been around
- 30 degrees.
-
- First bad thing: While getting gas, I dropped the key down into the
- left side of the bike. I ended up buying a flash light and taking
- part of the left bodywork off, but I found the key.
-
- Second bad thing: I lost a little plastic screw recepticle. A
- $.10 piece that I later had to pay about $3.25 to replace.
-
- Could this be a sign that more and more of my income will be going
- towards plastic?
