After a set of switch backs the guy beheind on a KLRDRVSTROM asks how much HP the bike has cause you were throwing fist size rocks at his head when he tried to follow you HEHEH sorry about that chumly
when the guys on dirt bikes shake thier head as you go up the ugly section of trail they just bypassed on your "street bike"!
....you have a shopping list for you bike ....and you tell the missus that things cost 20% of what they actually were (cheers Clem)
When you are flying down a dirt road thinking gee I wouldn't mind a little more HP. And then saying to yourself 'are you f___in stupid your on a 950'
...You can't sleep nights before a trip (or just a ride) for knowing that the beast is waiting, ready, in the garage.
When all the dirt roads around your house have huge snaking roost marks on them. When you giggle every time you start to put on your riding gear. When you can do a rear tire change in under an hour. Q~
when your misses has a bitch at you and tells you to go for a fkn ride.... and you don't come home for 3 days... JMJ NZ
You warn your friends "Seriously dude, if you don't have the money to go buy one I can't let you take it for a ride"
You tell the guy admiring the bike, "if you are interested in buying one, DONT test ride it until you are ready to buy, cause it'll be an obsession until you do." Or... you can't sleep because you are depressed your 950 got stolen.
...Stare at your wife all week, trying to pick the right moment to tell her about your next 5 day dirt trip you've already agreed to.
I love that!!!! I had someone put up their ice cream stand as collateral before I let them take mine. I actually was secretly hoping to cash in, the ice cream stand is a summer gold mine!!!! (Not that I wanted anything bad to happen to the rider...)
You read OC and buy all the"spare & needed UP-grades,ie : fuel pump, clutch stuff,water pump kit, kick stand by-pass, ect. ect.ect." and your bike keeps going, no problems!! And the local dealer calls to see if you have part # in stock! Sorry NO TIRES FOR SALE!! Wait got some slicks avail.!!
you know you're a 950 owner when... you drop your bike back a couple of gears in a tunnel just to hear it roar (and the guy in the Prius beside you wees his pants)
