tried to get back in with an 06 1k rr and it's a SICK machine, but my passion for it is kind of gone. I've gotten older, realized my mortality and it's pretty cramped compared to my old 6.
going to sell it in the spring and take a while off. Street is fun but the danger of what your doing is just immense when you grasp it. That and i don't feel like going to jail- i have what a psychologist would call- "poor impulse control"
I'm in the same boat as a lot of you regarding not trusting myself on a street bike. I can ride a scooter no problem but putting me on something with some serious power after a lifetime of MX is dangerous.....just a matter of time until some thing happens.

It's just another bike.
It only goes as fast as you want.
Do people cut you off sometimes, pull out in front of you sometimes, sure.
But if you trust no one, ride like you believe that housewife is still gonna pull out, even tho you've made eye contact,
or that trucker on the interstate doesn't see you in his mirror, you'll be fine.
Believe me, the fact that you're an accomplished rider of the dirt, hell,
you're heads above any rider that has been nothing but street.
looks like this, cept yellow powdercoated wheels and arata slip and smoked double bubble screen.
i know that the newer fireblades perform better but aesthetically i think this was the top looking design for the 1ks.
i will get anouther some day but not till i grow a brain.
I'm okay now, but I know what's up, one more big one and it could be real bad news.
And racing moto, that's where I have a hard time holding back.
So, for the time being, moto is on hold.
Yeah, Cali has the canyons, here it's the mountains...........

One thing I like about the track is most crashes don't really hurt. This one, I picked the bike up and still won the Unlimited race.
So while I haven't raced a dirt bike in many years, I'm still a huge fan.
I haven't done any track days, but have had a '74 CB550 four, an '02 Hayabusa, and a my Road King. One of my coworkers keeps wanting me to come out to a track day but I'm not going to take either my Honda or the Harley, and don't want to buy leathers for one use either.
Besides my addiction to offroad I have ridden street bike since the late 70's. All kinds bought begged or stolen
My preference is offroad of all types - but two wheels of any kind wins

I'd toyed with the idea of getting something else recently, but I think I'm opting out of that, too.
