Level Of Difficulty at Work: 5 out of 10
NapTime During Lunch: 24min (Back to good ol napping again)
Work was whatever, that didn't matter. It was transporter time! I get the monies, then go to bri's.. We head off to the moto store at Fremont. Hung out n what not, saw the shiny blue motomoto.. '04 Honda CBR600RR (RaceReady? Are you?). Pimp Daddy meets up with us and secretly he wants a harley.. i saw it in his eyes.. Finally we get the bike n what not. The next part was where to eat.. Mr. Pimp, Where do we eat? Luckily we were waiting for the moto to get ready to ride as Bri and I, Grill Da pimp on where to eat. We eventually land back at the Banana Leaf, a Maylasian / Singaporean Restraunt.. Mmmm Roti Prata, a kinda thin n light tortilla with curry dip.. Very nice..
Off to go back home and it starts to rain when we get to Redwood City.. And through that experience, i think i've level'd up on riding in the rain. Once i felt a trickle of water run down my leg, it was just like riding a bicycle in the rain. Once your wet, you can't get any wetter. i'm not afraid of it no more.. Mwahaha!
So what do i think of the crotch rocket?
Plus:
----
Light, Agile. Very Quiet.
Short compared to my moto, i could look over the front!
Easy Going Power, but that might just be break-in period stuff.
The speedo has a clock! and a Fuel Guage! My bike i use mystic methods to determine time and fuel level.
Minus:
------
Smells, Moves and feels like a honda, thats scary for me.
Clutch release point is kinda far out, almost full release of the lever.
It runs oddly hot (odd to me), my moto on the freeway is around 170-180degrees, in street traffic it can go up to 205.. the higest i've seen on my bike is 210. The CBR on the highway is the same, 170-180, but on the streets it got up to 225 easy.. Maybe it's the very light weight oil for breaking in? And i think it's an electric coolant fan. Probably better than my waxball old school type but its odd to hear your moto start up.. then hear later the fan start up, if you can hear it start that is.. It's cool.
It's Moto Time.. Time to get Paul n Matty going now..
