Nice box, tools and bike. A buddy of mine just got a big plum colored Snap On box that I really want. They retail for $12K new but he has much much less than that in it. I got to have that bad boy. My small"ish" Mac box is packed full.
I like Kaws myself also. Here is my first real bike, 04 636. High sided @ 90mph at a closed course race track. Cracked my Arai helmet and the plate in my gloves that protects the knuckles, tore my leathers all to heck. Sent them off to Barnacle Bill, LOL. That experience reminded me I'm not Superman, although I did fly like him.
And paired with the best 70cc saw of all time.
Which racetrack???

Step back from the liquor bottle Rope...it has softened your brain to near mush status.
You have confuzamicated 2K and myself.
The picks you speak of are mine:

I like my green picks, and my green screwdriver. Those tools have helped me to earn thousands of dollars.
Plus they match this:
Sorry if something with that kind of power to weight ratio makes your little doodads shrivel up.

Lmfao I knew it was one of the wrench spinners lol. I have been spinning them last day or two. Put an air compressor and 24 24 brake chamber on the Mack. Anyway I would walk all over the cow with the hyboosa.

Carolina Motorsports Park in SC. It was December and very cheap for a track day, go figure, LOL. There was a big name racer there but I can't recall his name. Brian somthing... Anyway, he was good, real good. Had a smokin' hot ole lady too.
It was pretty cold that day and everyone had tire warmers except a few, one being me.
The track was pretty slick until the sun came out, stihl slick after thtat though. I went with another good friend of mine that works at the big local Honda/Kaw/Suz dealer. We have rode the streets hard for about a year and I was getting brave. No trees or other DA vehicle drivers to worry about on a closed course track. I took turn 13 way too fast and the rear tire slipped out, I over corrected and was launched off to the right. As the bike slammed down and flipped, it landed on me on its way down. I was pizzed, new bike, new leathers, new helmet. Didn't break any bones and limped for about 2 weeks. Never went to the doc either. I lived and learned, was fun but bikes earned my much needed respect after that. This day I think the only reason I lived is due to my grandpa looking down on me from Heaven.

Brian,
Nice bike!
Nice saw!
joat
Thanks. That 440 was the first one I laid my paws on, my only real saw then was a 029. I met a guy in Sanford, NC off craigslist and for the tune of $500 I had a like new 440. That was when I knew the 440 was the best.
I'll get another bike one day, thinking of a 1000 though. I need to get my shop built and packed with all the goodies first. By then it might be a cruiser or dual sport.

Never been to CMP, but I have heard it is a decent place.
I raced the WERA southeast region for four years and got to race at some very nice tracks. Savannah, Charlotte Motor Speedway, Rockingham, Talledega GPR, Road Atlanta, Memphis Motorsports Park, Nelson Ledges, and Summit Point.
Had my only crash at Summit Point when I rode into a downpour going down the front straight. Lost the front end at over 100mph. Tore up my buddies girlfriends bike and my leathers, but no injury. I was lucky. Two other racers were severly injured in that same incident. Nearly highsided my TZ at Rockingham coming out of the last turn, but The Man was looking out for me and I went on to win the race.
Boy those were some good times...

Sounds like some great times for sure. Was that Rockingham, NC?
That same day I crashed started out worse for another rider. He had a brand new GSXR1000 with about 10 miles. Our first practice lap he wiped out in the first turn, the bike didn't have any type of frame protection. The clutch side of the crankcase hit first and grinded down about 7 inches into the engine. That sucked, LOL. Oil went everywhere.

That was more of a joke, LOL. I think I can push a mower around and get on the Deere if I really want to cut. If I did have one, it would be the Stihl.
It should be Orange and White, that pullon green color isn't doing anything for me.Is the husky a real husky or a cheap pullon deal?

Yep, NCMS. WERA used to race there back in the day. You better grow a pair if you wanted to go fast there. You can see the road course in the infield. Turn one and two are inside NASCAR 3/4. You went onto the banking exiting turn two. They had a chicane at the bottom of NASCAR 1, then around NASCAR 2, onto the backstraight, then into the roadcourse at the end of the backstraight. It was a hairball track...

Yup, know that track well. It's about 15 minutes from my house. I've been to the circle track a few times back when Nascar was using it. Those cars could not get over 160mph IIRC, I always thought it was such a small track. That would be crazy on a bike.
I'm over on the other side(Dragstrip) about every other weekend. I helped a buddy build a buttstang. Can't beat a Fox body with a Bowtie powertrain.

Well, I reacted like you when I saw these robomowers come out a few years ago, but I think Husky has a big seller on these nowadays. I bet they make very good margins on them (high price) and every new garden in my area is prewired for use of such thing. My neighbour has one and it does its work pretty well, even in a sloped area.
My husky dealer likes them very much...$$$$$$
