Can I ask why you don't want to ride the interstate?

Its to light of bike you get blown all over the place and these bikes dont have a tremendous amount of power either.Redline is at 95mph.They werent made to be crusers they are just commuter bikes.I have heard of a few guys that will ride on the interstate but with all the trucks on the interstate where I live I`ll take 2 lane hyways to get where I want to go.Another thing is I have only been riding since last year,I picked up my bike in June.

Ahh yeah, I think I'd name a light bike something like Firefly, but then again, I like that show.

So I got my front tire mounted.




I took it over to get reinspected. It passed of course, but when I tried to get the 'on the spot' sticker, they said the state won't let them do it because 'the vin # and license # do not match'... Even though neither has changed since last year. PITA Now I have to go figure this BS out at the DMV, my favorite place evar. (sarcasm)

It's a Pirelli Sport Demon. It was one of the cheaper tires on ebay.

Ok so I finally got down to the DMV to get this thing legal again. Just paid the registration fee and I was good to go.

So I suppose it's about time to start modding it again. I think I'm going to try to redo the seat cover or just buy one like this.
