    yea i think it was sitting around in his shop for the last year. I had to wait to get new certifications for it to comply with the new emmissions standards (and actually the certificate i got is for a 150 so maybe the 200 doesnt comply anymore).

    just waiting for plates now and well be off on the trip. think theyll be arriving a bit later than expected so the trip may have to be modified a bit. right now not sure where well be goin but will probly be heading out around the tenth.

    speaking of riding safely i had a very humbling experience on it that night. We took it for a run out towards pudong airport that night. |Dewie went home for fear of getting lost, i continued on to meet ms. clegg who was flying in. I didnt know the way and the signs for pudong put me on the expressway. Scared the absolute bejaysus out of me. i was in shock until the next day. Had to leave the bike there for the night. It was way windy and the bike was doing a lot of swaying. the next day when i went to pick it up i could see why, the road was elevated... Anyway the ride back was great, got straight off the expressway and followed the ring road home (underneath of course). Its a class little bike and all through fourth it's beastly. Its strange it doesnt get much in fifth tho until you get into the high rpm's.

    Dewie neglected to mention on young man who took one look at our bikes declared my bike shit with dewies being the shit. I swallowed my pride. I still think it can take the regal, just need get to understand the gears better.
