I flipped a coin. Heads for 03. It landed on tails. I flipped again. I guess its the 03.

Badly squared-off tire screams stunter

Go with your gut Gina, don't second guess yourself.

Or someone who just commutes. My brothers Katana pretty much had a flat spot all the way around and he never stunted, just rode back and forth to work.

Sadly, my middles are flat.

If someone stunts a lot. Can you fell it in the suspension? Wouldnt the fork seals possibly be leaking?

Either that or there will be a ton of shredded/melted rubber all over the undertail.

Decided on the SV, gave Willy a call on my way back from school tonight. He seemed surprised that I didn't take the 06

He should be dropping it off on Saturday!

Sending the extra seat to Sargeant tomorrow!

Homie- I think its squared from commuting.

Ranger- I am barely 5'2 and a fluctuating 100 lbs, I cant touch the floor or lift a Katana off the side stand

I'm barely 5'2 in flats. I am 5'6-5'7 in heels

I should be able to get the balls of meet feet down with seat shaving and thick soled boots. I only had the SV lowered for about a week so I can get more footing until Vinny did a chop shop fender eliminator for me and we went over a pothole and the license plate got mangled from hitting the rear tire

so it was raised back to stock that day.
