wow! scraped my pipes today
Well I guess I'm getting more comfortable with my bike now. Finally scraped my pipes while riding today. Twice! 
I always thought, "no way I'll ever get this thing to lean that much through turns"

I lit the pipes up on the way home from the dealership man that got my heart pumpin a little bit faster. My wife and daughter were following me home and told me I threw some serious sparks. Fun stuff

I scraped the stock pipes when I got my street bob before, but I dont think the person had the shocks adjusted right, I got the tool to adjust them and got different pipes now and havent scraped them yet...I have hit my foot peg on the ground tho, and that alone kind of got me a little freaked out cause I felt my heel on the pavement and didnt really like that too much, scares you just a lil bit

I was cutting a tight turn yesterday and scraped the feelers on it scared the **** out of me cuz if I let up on the turn I would have been in the oncoming lane.. I have to hit some empty parking lots and lean hard so I can get used to the feeling
