all of the tornado and storm warnings and watches have been lifted around here for now. the roads have dried. the temperature is perfect at 75°. me and the busa are taking it to the streets spinning some extreme winds of our own.

last ride of the year
i pulled the busa out for a spin christmas eve figuring it might be the last ride of the year due to the snowmagedon weekend forecast: we barely got a dusting here in dc. but, with 29 mph sustained winds and gusts @ 50mph right now and thru this week, i probably wont be back on for a couple of weeks at least...cant wait for daytona.
suzuki swing arm extension
i definitely want to do some type of swing arm extension on the busa...just not sure how much...or how little...is this too much?
airframe hayabusa
i found a new helmet that looks great with my new busa. icon has lots of stuff to add to my xmas list...glad i stumbled upon them.
ocean city bike week
officially entitled delmarva bike week, ocean city is filled with bikes this weekend!
hope to join them soon...not sure if i'll ride the harley or the busa.
hayabusa evolution: part one
i got the busa back from its shop, and frankly: i couldnt be happier. the new stripped down version is super fast and super cool...a swing arm lengthening is coming next...i promised the wife i would sell the zodiac to fund it though: know anyone who wants to buy a boat?
new busa
i am amazed by the technology packed into my new 2009 busa. this one rides so much smoother than the last one.
im in love again.
2009 kawasaki hayabusa
the new bike is here. i drove to bum fuchn egypt, virginia to pick up my new badass 2009 busa. dont tell anyone, though:
i would like to keep this one for a while.
new busa

decided on a 2009 silver hayabusa sold locally...cant wait to pick it up!
orange hayabusa
i am leaning toward an orange hayabusa...
this is a 2004 with only 500 miles on craigslist...
too far for me to go check it out, though.
replacement ride
still looking for "the one" to replace my stolen busa...thought i had found it with a 2007 version-similar to the one pictured above-but then i found out it had been down...
the search continues.
new motorcycle with lojack
i am still sad about the loss of my hayabusa last week...just cant get over they would take it out of my front yard. but, i am moving on...havent pinpointed my new ride exactly, but this one will have lojack...
might not have chrome paint.
hayabusa gets new mirror(s)
i installed new larger mirrors to replace the tiny cool ones that came with the hayabusa... promptly knocked the bike over while re-loading it into the trailer and broke the right side one off. the new one arrived today and i put it on again.
hot day for a ride
the weather was great today...took the busa for a spin. did not need the jacket.
shopping for motorcycles on ebay
found this 2005 hayabusa on ebay today...might need it.
my motorcycle trailer is a nuisance
i really wanted to take a spin on the busa today because it got up to 62°, but it is such a hassle to rotate vehicles around so i can hook up to the trailer, pull it down the driveway so i can get a bike out, and then replay the entire process in reverse to put the bike away. i bought the trailer to haul the bikes around for various bike week excursions, and thought it would be a great place to store them when i wasnt riding...but, the trailer is actually a nuisance! thinking about getting rid of it and building a mini garage/shed at the end of the driveway.

hell hath no fury like this f-ing winter!
we got 30 inches of snow last weekend during the 2010 blizzard, phase 1. i had to dig trails for the dog so he could take a piss. now its snowing again with 10-20 inches expected...and the 50 mile per hour winds make me glad i put the busa in the trailer with the harley...unless the roof caves in. i live in dc not in colorado: this is ridiculous.
hayabusa loves the snow
we got another 6 inches of snow here in maryland...most of it melted today, but more is predicted for this weekend.
im putting the busa in the trailer for a while.
