I seriously hope that's not anytime soon.
I'm getting letters from my bank account threatening a messy breakup is coming if this keeps up. Yet the Visa people keep upping my credit limit... I wonder why? Asses.

Seriously though, it's in the plans... just not yet. I need to earn first.

Okay guys, got a really bad video done.

It's a pain in the ass driving and filming... it doesn't help that my camera zoomed out all the way is still too close. And it was really wet.

The twisty road at the end is as curvy as the one long turn that I did on the OEM rack... it just seems a lot less since they're shorter turns, and I'm barely moving the steering wheel

Aw well, sorry for the lame video, but it's the best I could do without a camera mount.

I'm a really lame video!

Nice. Have you gone on a longer high speed highway cruise yet? If I had the funds I would definitely want one of these

You mean, "get" one of these. I have a lot of wants but no funds for them haha.

Anyway, yeah, I was doing 90mph on the highway last night. No problem. The steering wheel just doesn't move... it holds a line very well.
I've already adjusted my steering inputs... it took like a few minutes to get used to it, but now I don't think about it.

Absolutely I can't wait to get out on the big road with no traffic lights or lanes.

^^ Cool, good to hear casual driving is easy to get used to. I'd be curious to see how correcting for a snap oversteer condition would fair with such quick steering or another situation where its more instinctual reaction. I wonder if you be more apt to over-correct? I guess its like you say you just have to get used to it

After a few days of driving with the new rack, life is good. No going back. When I get the summer tires on and a camera mount, I'll have to give the video thing another try.

So!
What do you guys think of these seats?


And of this meth/water kit?

that kit was delivered to me just a few days ago.
i'd say... go for it it does not come with a water reservoir, so make sure you have a plan for that. i got myself a brandnew IC water sprayer tank, that i'll use, instead of the old stock one that's looking rather nasty
