Hard to tell in the picture, do the S-Class still have 3 lines in the headlines as far as the "eyebrow"? Beautiful ride

Here's the most recent one with the new aftermarket Marchesini wheels. I have Ohlins fork internals, an aftermarket Ohlins damper, ASV levers, Shift Tech front & rear carbon fiber fenders, the Panigale V4SP seat, and some other minor stuff done. Once I install the rear sets and the carbon fiber clutch case cover, the next mod will be Termi's and track fairings.

Great pics of the Ducs. Where was that trackday at? I rode a GSX-r 750 doing trackdays mainly in Texas, Louisiana and Alabama.

Thanks bro! It was Autoclub Speedway in SoCal. It's my home track since it's 15 minutes away from where I live.

I'm definitely gonna have to get use to having a larger car. That being said this one has 4.5 degree rear steering which really makes it more of a breeze to park and maneuver. Luckily I don't street park much.

When I bought mine my wife was with me and asked if it would fit in the garage. Well she doesn't have good skills determining the size of cars so I just laughed. Heck I was turning in a Cayenne which I thought was longer.

Got home and it was tight. I was wrong. It was much longer than the Cayenne. Yes it fit but no longer did I have room behind the car with the garage door closed. I did like mine but I guess I'm a whore for cars. I buy them used, love them for a couple years and buy again. Yours is really sweet. Love that red interior.

That rear steering would have been handy.

EDIT: That King Sue is available at the Binny's super store in Champaign, about an hour north of here. Pricey stuff, though. $18 for 4 16oz cans. $103 for that case of six you posted. Is that in line with what you paid?

This is my go to New England IPA, doesn't hurt that the place is practically down the street and with the new chef the food is really good

Smooooth, but will kick your ass
If you think that IPA is expensive you should see some of their stouts. I have a few of them and the "cheap" ones are $50 a bottle retail.

It's an old picture considering I sold that bike in 2014-2015. That said, I don't know anybody who throws away helmets. I could take a photograph with it today if I wanted to.

I didn't pay particular attention to the helmet, but now that it's been mentioned, I had very similar Shoei (the black and white one) when I last owned a bike. I had mine custom painted to match my leathers. I took the speakers out of a set of headphones and embedded them into the helmet so I could hear my radar detector at speed. I think it went with the bike when I sold it. That was a looong time ago.
