    First Ride of the Season

    March 15th, uncovered my baby, installed the new Puig racing windscreen and got out for the first time today. Beautiful, sunny, and 55 F. Lots of sand on the roads though. Also including a pic of my bike with the new windscreen, looks sweet.

    How do you hold the throttle/brake?

    I actually got bitched at by the instructors at my BRC for covering the brake. I still do with my index and middle finger however...don't tell anyone.

    Picking on Harleys

    Love the one about why they don't wave at sportbike riders...the waving part is true, hadn't thought much about the tools part, but it makes sense.

    Western Wisconsin or Eastern Minnesota???

    That's a great idea, we just need to find a central location where we can all meet, I can be flexible. Thanks!

    Western Wisconsin or Eastern Minnesota???

    That sounds like fun. Bit of a haul from here to get to the ride but might be worth it. Lets chat again in April.

    First time on the highway

    I'm relieved to see that I'm not the only one that suffered (and still suffers a bit) from highway anxiety when i first started riding. When I took the MSF course one of the instructors asked me why I didn't ride in on the "fizzer". I didn't have the balls to admit to him that i didnt ride it...

    Who else owns a firearm or more?

    Glock Model 22 .40 cal, Remington 870 12 guage, Bushmaster Carbon 15 "assault rifle" for sport shooting and varminting. Where in Wisconsin do you live? I know there some other sconi folks on the forum but they all seem to be located over on the east side of the state. I'm way over on the...

    Tell us about your political views.
