Default my trip *56k maybe

Well last friday I was going to leave with 6 guys and ride to Eureka Spring, Arkansas. The weather sucked @$$ so we left on saturday and rode to a friends lake house in the Ozarks.

6 riders turned into 4 due to the weather and a bike being totaled 3 weeks before. anyways

ME - cbr 600 f2
others: SV 650s, GSXR 750, V-Max

hwy 135 south from Stover to Laurie was amazing. nice clean curvy road.


here are a few pics, none in motion but the trip was fun and I plan to make it out again soon.

all bike in a little garage night before we left

the vmax is awsome. hella fast and comfy. good bike if you want to get away from the crotch rockets. but still want some type of sporty cruiser. My friend almost bought a harley, but I think he got way more bike, for less money.

It is the 25th anniversary edition with red ghost flames on the tank. his is #38 of 2000 i think.

my cousin has a vmax and he let my dad ride it and when he got back he told me that thing had so much power it's a fine whether you or it has the control, also said that it will bring the front end up at any given moment with too much gas. Aren't these the same bikes with 160 hp that insurance companies quit insuraning them for awhile?
