    "If that don't do it nothing will"

    I guess nothing will!

    well color me yellow, 'cause I'm resigned to the fact that my Bandit is forever doomed to chicken strips. I went for a "spirited" ride on some of the closer twisties and it felt like I was gonna drag the footpegs, or cases or sumpthin'. Still came up with chicken strips. It felt like if I laid it over any more the bike should just slide out from under me. Ride safe everyone. Picture is worth a thousand words:

    1981 GS750L (sold)
    1981 GS750L (current)
    1978 Yamaha RD400 (RD = Race Development)
    1981 Honda CT70 (86+ MPG at WOT most of the time)
    1983 GS1100GL (needs work: update, gone to a new home)
    1956 Simplex (with a TS250 motor)
    1985 GS1150E (Hammer Time!!)
    1998 1200 Bandit (Rattler)
    1980 GS1100L (Janice)
    Do I continue?

    If you survived the ride, that is more important than the size of your "strips".

      Spirit Talks

      When that "spirited" mood appears..I preview the road(s) at a slower pace to evaluate the conditions ,especially like you were in the twisties.sometimes I will chicken out if spirits suggest so...Ride to Return to Home Sweet Home is the Main Mission for me
