Man I miss my bike!
Took an aviation contractor job in Tulsa, but I had to leave my bike at home in Illinois.
I stay in a motel, and I ain't about to leave my bike parked in the parking lot here.
The hotel is right next to the Broken Arrow Expressway, and every once in a while, I'll hear the sweet sound of a KZ go screamin by. That's when I get really homesick.
So, I'll go to Youtube and look up a video of one.
I know you guys will love this one:


Busa-9.67 vs KZ-8.86 And the Busa left first.

No, I haven't been home in a couple months. Plus I work twelve a day six days a week, and by the time my day off rolls around I gotta do laundry and grocery shopping. Not to mention, Tulsa don't seem all that much fun to ride around in anyway. Maybe out in the countryside would be fun, but I haven't had a chance to see any of that.
Gonna be home for a long Labor Day weekend in a couple weeks though. Plan on doing some serious catch up riding then. B)

Good point blackbanshee. But with all the hours I'm working, it just ain't worth it to bring my bike down. Especially since I witnessed a Goldwing getting backed into in the parking lot outside my hotel. Woman just backed straight out of her parking space and right into the front of a it. Knocked it down and took off. Of course I got the license plate and turned it into the front desk. Haven't heard anything from the cops yet. At any rate, my bike won't be out there, ever.
There's also a bunch of other cars outside with damage on them. Makes me wonder about some of these folks.
I thought about trying to rent a bike for a day, but I only found one place, and all he rents out is Hardleys.
