You could not have asked for a better host! Mark threw out his wife, kids, provided run-of-the-house, yard, food and BEER for a very small fee! Imagine giving your house to ~25 riders for the weekend with alcohol... oh and the riding was great. I had to leave late Saturday night so I missed out on the evening festivities and Sunday riding. On the plus side I had I-80 Eastbound to myself for 3 hours and no deer. That's right!!! I saw ~15-20 cars and trucks the whole time. Never again in my lifetime I posted a few pics here: http://www.advrider.com/forums/showthread.php?t=40885 Mark your calendars for 2005, I am sure it's going to be good! Thanks Mark!!! You are one hell of a good guy!!!

You'll get about 2000 miles out of the D606 rear. Road noise will be much louder than TKC80s. I thought the D606 handled twisties OK, but were far less cost effective than K270s. -Bryan --- In DSN_klr650@yahoogroups.com, "Bud Pacotti" wrote:
