Well I haven't logged in since February according to my profile, but I just thought I should give you guys an update since I've been gone for over a year really.
As most of you know I sold my FZ6 last spring when I took a job that would keep me too busy to ride. Well that has gone through another owner and I just found out yesterday that the new owner's girlfriend took out a stop sign with my old bike but it is repairable. Brothers, don't lend your bikes!
I'm settled into a different job than the one I took last spring now. I am working in a Harley-Davidson dealership and enjoying it quite a bit. I even bought a Harley! *Gasp* So if I ever made fun of any of you for having one, I apologize.
That said, my Harley is far from the couch with wheels that most are. Here's a couple pics for reference.

It is a 2009 Harley-Davidson XR1200 and it is a riot! The way it is geared, I'm confident it could run with or past my FZ6 up to about 110mph but it falls off quickly on the top end. Just put it up on our dyno for the first time with a new FMF Titanium full system on Saturday and it makes 91.75hp and 76.15lb/ft of torque. Not too shabby for a hopped up 1200 sportster lump.
Anyhow, I just thought I'd pop in and say "hey" to everyone. Hope you are all well.
