well.. after 15 hours, she is finally in my garage.
we left my house here in AZ at noon (was suppose 2 b around 6am.. but that didnt happen..lol).
after driving for what seemed like forever, we got to Indio. then the rain started.
which, just like AZ drivers, Cali drivers also loze all IQ and drive like morons. so there was alot of stopping on the freeway.WAG called me around 2:30 and we were still in Indio. I finally got to the owners house around 6:45 (az time)
. WAG, sorry i didnt stop by, but 1 of the guys who went with me had 2 b at work at 10pm and we were already running late (if we would have left at 6am like we were suppose 2, i would have been by. but good thing is, the little lady wants to go to san diego here soon, so ill give u a buzz and stop by). when i went 2 go pick up the bike... wow... just beautiful. she was everything i expected, and more. im sure i looked like a
being on this bike for the first time... it wasnt all
at first.. more like
.. yea.. this is a bit bigger/ more powerful then a R6. lol. turning this thing im going 2 ahev 2 ge use 2.. cause i can SO tell it weights 150 lbs more. anywho, we left around 7:45 and of course the freeway was dead, so we got back home around 12:15 (az time). after 350 miles.. my only complaint on the bike is.... its TO comfortable. no matter how i was, full tuck, 1/2 tuck, sitting up like its a cruizer, all were SO comfortable, no back pain, no legs falling asleep. gawd this is great!. i really didnt get on the bike while on the freeway, just cruized at 85-90.. i think the highest i took her to was 110-115. didint wanna ruin all the fun already...lol.
Wag, again, thank you SO much for checking the bike out. When i come back 2 cali here in about a month, ill stop by and ill be buying u a dinner! The owner seemed really cool. u were right.. he's a really smart guy and we just talked engines for almost an hour. haha. i guess he was an officer in the marines, and his 2 roommates were also marines (all got out about 5-8 years ago). i did feel bad for him.. he had 2 watch someone drive his baby off into the sunset, and i told him i know how he feels. but he said he may get a new busa here shortly.
of course ill post up pick, going 2 wash her here soon.
also, i do have 1 question. when i turn the bike on (just turn the key to the on possition, not starting it) the oil light coems on and it says "check" in the top box. is this normal? i noticed when i start it up it will still say check and the light will b on, but only for a min, then it goes away. is this normal? im thinking about doing an oil change today, just so i know when it was changed last. (also, how many qaurts of oil do i put in??)
