I picked up the "Acid Tripper" on 3/4/10 after waiting 9 months to get my hands on her. She's my first new vehicle and my first TRUE sport bike. After delevering my first born child, I installed the Slick plug at the dealer then booked!

I didn't get a picture but I got pulled over on Ben Howard Rd. near Monroe, WA for 20 over....I could not believe he let me go! Best B-Day present I ever got from a Sherriff!

Steven's Pass was a bit chilly....where are my heated grips!!
