On a side note; I'm so disgusted with my riding, friends crashing and major break downs I don't want to even look at a motorcycle. For the first time since 1999 I loath being in the garage. I don't even want to fix what's broken much less invest another minute riding.

I beleve this will pass...but for now I'm stepping 100% away.



As for the K11, it’s the only bike I have ever loved, if I can’t ride it, I won’t ride at all.

My internal angst or whatever it is, is not about the K11. On this ride, ‘something broke’ or just plain died. My style of riding (LD) riding causes a great amount of severe stress and some anger in Steve. I love him dearly and if I love him, how can my desire to ride the way I want, where I want and with whom be more important than his happiness?

I cannot justify it.

So Drake, far now, tools will no longer be an issue.



Ride it like you stole it!
After you wrench it like you broke it.

Gwen, sorry to hear that.

Step away and take a breather. Get back to riding if and when you feel like it.

It's been over a year now.

Things are getting better.
