Great news Doug
Also impressed that the 610 is on par with the RFS. Very impressive when a comparatively low maintenance, street oriented machine can hang with a full blown race bike
BTW husqvarna's have long been known for extraordinary stability, at least in the off road context.

Jasen, I think the hand can handle regular track days. I waited almost 5 months to test it so I was pretty sure it would be fine. Being older makes it tough to guess whether or not a surgery rehab is complete since so much crap normally hurts anyway.
I have an urge to go tomorrow also, maybe I will, maybe I won't. It is nice to have the option again.

Ok, coworkers.
Good to hear Doug, we'll have to see how you do on Saturday. Modding stuff rocks, healing up rocks even more cuz it's like your body is doing it's own internal mods.

A Kourier has to establish space on the pavement. Predictable law-abiding behaviour lulls drivers. They mentally assign you to a little box in the lane, assume you will stay there, can't handle it when you leave that little box.
Y.T. is not fond of boxes. Y.T. establishes her space on the pavement by zagging mightily from lane to lane, establishing a precedent of scary randomness. Keeps people on their toes, makes them react to her, instead of the other way round.
