Well seeing no one from CT likes to post any more, let me just say.

TWO WEEKS UNTIL I GO TO COURT!!!!!!!!

this whole not driving thing sucks. The old man picks me up from work everyday and today made the comment, "You own a Jeep, and a Bike both registered and insured in your name. But yet you can't drive either. dude, your life sucks" then he started laughing... I almost killed him.

If you kill him, your life will suck even more when you have to walk to work and back. Are you taking the course for your motorclcye license. Just ride the bike anyways, stick to the back roads and take it easy. Good luck in a couple of weeks.

Mjs, what's the word on the parts you're waiting for.

I had the screws taken out of my ankle a week and a half ago. Alls going well and can't wait to do some wheelin. I have to go back to work in three weeks so I want to get another ride in soon.

No, I really don't know of any that you won't scratch the jeep up with. The trails are in the woods and the woods have trees and branches. There's limited spots to wheel in New England that are legal. If you want to wheel it, you have to deal with scratches.

Awesome about your leg dude! Glad your back on two feet.

I am taking the course in June (first days I could get in) But I've been toting about my neighborhood since about day 3 of owning it. I have 120 miles on it already Today after work I thought it would be a good idea to try my hand at the DMV again. I got there at 3:58 and left at 7:29.... I hate that place but I got my permit so I am legal on all streets with the exception of highways. They had to update my regular license with the eye issue so it took for ever. I took a nice little ride when I got home, nothing major. Just to the local gas station and to return a red box movie, but it was my first stop light I love my bike.


I bought pants last weekend too so now I am full geared.

not yet I will have to try them though.

The helmet is an HJC FS-10... fit is amazing and it has built in drop down sunglasses which are awesome. Only thing is with the visor cracked open it screams and IMO does not have enough air flow with it closed
