I prefer to count my money so I don't have toys. Well, that's not quite true either. A girl can never have too much gold, diamonds and pearls. And handbags, shoes, clothes, lingerie, shoes, diamonds and more shoes.

I race motorcycles. No matter how much you make you can spend it all on that sport.

Definitely my motorcycle... virtually nothing on the street can touch their performance. I just picked up a new ZX10 about a month ago. I've been riding for about 5 years now and have had just about as many bikes; a YZF600, R6, R1, older ZX10, now my blooo baby.

380 lbs + 191 horsepower =

Nice......even for a kawi! I'm a Yamaha man myself, but unfortunately my budget only has allowed me a 1995 YZF600. It'll still do everything your ZX10 will, just not as fast, smooth, etc.... I just recently bought an 02' V-Star 1100 because my wife hates riding on the sportbike(go figure). It's a nice bike, but I definately love the performance factor of the sportbikes much better!!!!

Yes, Deals Gap is the real name, Tail of the Dragon is another name that road has picked up. I will be there for 3 full days, and a partial morning this coming tuesday before we head home.
