Installed a new BMC high flow air filter and put the Speed Triple on the Dyno on Saturday, made just a little over 117 HP at the rear wheel. I even washed it with S100, I also ordered a brand new set of Pirelli Diablo Corsa III tires.

I will get them installed and balanced as soon as they get here, I want to scuff them up a little before the BASH.

After the BASH I have to haul ass to Middlebury to get my bike loaded on the trailer for our June 2nd TRACK DAY at Louden, NH.

Is everyone ready?

The S3 has got to be a real blast to ride.

I loaded up the bike yesterday with all of my bags,(saddle/tank/tail) and ran it through some twisties and did some high speed stuff. Got home and changed the oil. Everything works well.

Will clean the bike up some and put a little lube on the chain before I leave.

I am ready to go.

When are you heading up Paul? I wish you could get Hivel to make the trip even if it was with out a bike I like his straight forward humor. I miss some of the people over at rat might stop in and say hey.

I am meeting rndtaylor in Cleveland TN on Sunday morning at 7:30. i will probably have to roll out of Birmingham about 3:30 but I will not be able to sleep that night anyway.

We will be arriving in Bennington on Tuesday.

HiVel is having a lot of wrist pain right now so we will see. He is usually a pleasure to hang out with. I am sure he would be a blast at the bash but I don't think it is going to happen.

Paul,
Those were some pretty nice words to say about your dad. Relish your relationship with him.
