Been on that road several times, but don't think I have had as much fun as you did. ;) I'm checking my knees now for asphalt burns felt like I was riding with you. :2vrolijk_21: You need to warn people before viewing that leathers should be worn. :huepfenlol2:

This isn't very good for helping me resist the urges I have for another sportbike....like I need another bike...but the local dealer has a real nice GSXR 1000 - and its orange and black ::)

LOL.  Yup.  The stock mirrors on my bike are useless ... all I can see is vibrating elbows.

They are called "bugeyes" ( http://www.bugeyes.com/ (http://www.bugeyes.com/) )

They work great in the daytime ... but you can't use them at night very well ... the streetlights will give you vertigo.
