Fellow Hooligans...

As mentioned a while back, I bought a new Graphite Daytona 675. A really sweet machine, I must tell you. I thought the Speed Triple was a great handling bike until I spent some serious seat time on the 675... That thing is razor sharp and the suspension is great.

mfranzdorf is the new proud owner of my 2001 Neon Blue Speed Triple. He drove over from Ohio to pick it up today. I must tell you that I am sure that I will miss that bike. The torque that motor had was a wonderful thing. Along with missing that bike, I will miss the hooliganistic lifestyle and banter shared on this board. I will stop by from time to time to check in on you guys. Take good care of mfranzdorf and make him feel as welcome as you all have made me feel.

Keep the rubber side down and be safe but keep havin' fun!

TripleThreat

Here I am tring to be a little sentimental about missing you guys and all you can do is hijack this thread and talk about color... Sheesh...

I'll miss that! One of the best parts has been seeing you guys give each other grief... Some of you have been pretty creative...

hey Tracker,

I am not interested in fighting or flaming or whatever. I just want to get along. I was just expressing an opinion. Nobody has to listen......or agree. No offense was intended.

Sorry TripleThreat, I did not intend to hijack your thread.

I hope you enjoy the 675, it is one sexy looking bike.

Cheers
