Great bike... Never like the headlight setup on the Kwaks though... Still, the 650 is a screamer for a sub liter bike.
What's the dry weight on that now? about 350 pounds?

393. Not bad as a dry weight but feels light as a feather. Wonderful bike all around.

The 600s-750s are crazy now... These bikes are just as fast as Litre bikes were 10 years ago... INSANE.

for me it isn't a past time,its a job. i was only shooting my sniper rifle about once every week, and i was only shooting my AR every 3-4 months. i have been shooting my handguns pretty often due the the hogs getting brave and trying to chill on my back porch  for someone who is one of the only two certified LEO snipers in the region, i have to say thats pretty lazy on my part. So i am currently working on the situation. CORRECTION i am now the only certified sniper in my region, because the other one let his brother in law use his rifle to go fucking deer hunting and the in-law broke his scope base. i literally just got that last piece of info while i was typing this post. how fucking careless is that, why the fuck would you let someone borrow a gun that cost $2700, with a scope attached to it that cost $2300 (i know because i built it) just to go shoot a damn deer.the bastard just text messaged me this bullshit,needless to say he is about to get a call from me saying he is relieved of his sniper position.i am glad i just got through training 2 more guys.WTF!!! sorry about all of that, i needed to vent a little.i am good now. i am now off to my shop to see if i have enough materials to put together at least one rifle so i wont be the the only one on call this week  bench

I still have my ghillie suit in my closet and have used it for paintball since (works wonders btw). Awesome profession. A little too hc for me though. I'll stick with chasing junkies in Baltimore over getting blown to bits in Afghanistan/Iraq.

I agree I blew right through an intersection in the middle of a night because I couldn't see the stop sign because of the poor illumination on the 10R I was on
