I hate to be the spoiler but;
Green=Kawasaki Blue= Suzuki with yellow, or Yamaha Red= Honda, Ducati This is why Green is the fastest for Kawasaki!!!!!

The 7th? Of June? Wow, man I can't imagine how you are coping. If you have the gear and a safe way to do some parking lot practice, that might hold you over.

It's a Kawasaki, they always say "ride green". That's why they put a few extra ponies in the green se.

I have a permit and all the gear I need but being military I'm not aloud to touch it without the course but I still can't resist but I have the tail light and fender off working on it so that keeping me from getting in trouble. I still have about 2 week to wait but once that's done I will be legal and ready to go

I read about 2 years ago the military had some campaign about sport bikes and safety, after recognizing a higher fatality rate on sport bikes vs. the general population's fatality rate on sport bikes... I wonder if this is related to that.

That handbook is for the army and just an example. They have their own regulations which require a lot more protection than legally required in states (motorcycle gloves, bright/reflective garments, etc). There are also inspections of the bike. When I visited Cazper in Camp Pendleton, he did warn me they'll ask for my MSF card upon entering the base. I was pulled over and told that I couldn't wear earphones either. They are protecting their investment in their people. |
