Coming out of retirement, new bike for this season....




A year ago i got tagged by state trooper, was doing around 150+, got ticket reduced to 80/60...decided to give up riding

Picked up an 08 CBR 600RR...this bike is very smooth, im a fan of Yamaha but i thought i'd give this CBR a try...i never liked it before is because the seat was like made of wood, after riding for a long time you get blisters in your asshole and shit...but they redid the seat this year, feels much more comfortable..

Not sure exactly what that is, you have a link or pic? Do you mean a camelpack? Water is stored there for long races.

Wear it in good health. My Knox back protector really saved my ass a couple years ago when I highsided at Hockenheimring. My spine would have been ground up if I wasn't wearing one. And the wreck was at 80mph, so don't think that just because you are not on the track that makes any difference.

Congrats... I have always liked that model CBR with the tail light right above the exhaust that's under the seat. Nice.
