New suspension and exhaust

The temperature finally got to 13 degress C. Saturday so I went for a short 173 mile, (about 281 Kilometers) ride. The race tech suspension is a lot better than the stock 2004 Z1000 suspension and the Muzzy full exhaust with my new PCIII map have improved performance throughout the range. Salt Lake City, Utah, USA has a lot of twisties and roads with no police so I stepped it up to about 140 MPH, (225 KPH) and it handled like a dream. Colder than a well diggers ass at this time of year, however. I needed a lot of Jim Beam when I got home.
A couple of years ago I was stopped by a copper doing about the same speed, (140MPH) and was he pissed. I think he thought I was a youngster. He had already called for backup and I thought I was going to the slammer for sure. He looked at my driving license and saw that I was born in 1945, told me I am old enough to know better and let me go, I was shocked. Cheers.

I've heard of it but never get that far East. We have some pretty cool roads here that I think would be as challenging. When the snow melts I'll take my camara and post some pictures. If any of you get to Utah, let me know your coming. If I'm around my wife and I will put you up and give you a tour.

cheers buddy - unlikely that I will ever get to the States, but if I do, it will be to ride the Tail of the Dragon, and some roads in Utah ! I have another mate over there from the Worldwide Triples forum, he is located in Rio Rancho NM ? Used to be in Alberquerque.....
