meet Percie

[mattness]

dont kill yourself today man. NO traction on cold pavement. ive gone sideways several times. one time i had just started to push myself up off the pegs to bail.. and it caught traction and picked itself back up. i almost sent my gen 2 on a road rash bath

 

[KosRider]

Congrats Rick on your new Gen2 ! Bringing both to Thunder 2012 ? :hmmm:

Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year to you and your family !

33 miles on Percie today,high temp of 37 and holiday commitments kept me from putting on more. deceptively fast and smooth , This is going to be fun!

No serious burnouts and only ran it up to 125 for a second.

Jeff I will only be bringing ONE of the girls to thunder, I hope you and yours had a great holiday!

 

[FootNote]

I am not going to lie, I really want a gen2 lol I guess my gen1 will have to do for a few more years... Can't complain about that I guess

P.s. Congrats

Footnote I love my gen I and she will never be "replaced" . Ive wanted a gen II since before they were released and there was no way I could afford one. Then A fellow forum member posted a video about the differance of just "one degree" of extra effort can make. I set a goal and I never looked back. The MAXGASSER and the time I put into design,production and sales have givin me the oppertunity to get the Gen II. It wasnt a christmas gift,I was going to go get it next week, my wife and son surprised me by doing all the papper work so that I could have it early( I think my son just wanted to keep me out of the showroom, I can be a real prick) The dream continues, I will start a gen II seat design almost exactly two years to the day from when I started the first one. I HAVE NOT REACHED MY GOAL,............................................................... YET! Percie,short for perseverance

Guys(& gals)

I'd like to introduce you to Percie, she was'nt spose to arrive untill next friday but my wife and one of a kind son made it happen early(tonight) Oil pump done,DDclutch mod done.

I'll ride her a couple times then in the garage she goes for some R&D

That's AWESAOME Rick.........you waited long enough for that baby!! Can't wait to stop by and see it in person!!

 

[a113ycat]

DANG!! The wife and son are awesome for pushing it through for you. Stories like this are what make life long memories better. You look like a happy kid on that bike. Good for you man...good for you!

 

[twistedmax]

Mike, any time. I need to go clean it now, but even tonight if your not busy. Ally, Great wife and son, my son put down what I planed to and I just payed him back, it really did work out nicely.

 

[Redbone]

That is awesome Rick! Keeping your nose to the grindstone is a excellant lesson we can all take away from your efforts, good on ya brother!:worthy:

Rick, kinda curious about that thread that motivated you in such a way. Do you remember what the title of it was or who wrote it? Just like my wife and I just figured out if we both quit smoking we'd have approximately $9000.00 per year EXTRA!!! That's insane! So especially the fact I wanna be around to watch my Son Max who turns 2 in Feb and my Daughter Summer who's 5 grow up. I lost both parents too young to do that to them. So if you remember the thread let me know. I'm curious to try a little bit of perseverence myself and would bet others here would try too if it meant being able to get a Gen II also. Congrats again bro, Ed

 

[Junior6996]

That is one sexy max!!!!

[bazwell]

Merry Xmas to you!

I looked this morn before work,couldnt find it. It was about 1 extra degree of effort. I think it was posted by r6warrior and may have been called 212 degrees? I'll look some more tonight.

Ed this is the original Post, it sounds cornie I know ,but I changed my life,it can change yours. Just remember if you put the same old effort in you'll get the same results,it takes just a little more.

Mike C, thank you again!

Good morning everyone. I know this is a very strange holiday season with many being out of work and those that are still working full of uncertainty but a friend shared this amazing video with me and thought I would pass it on. Some of you may have seen it before, if so it is still worth a second look. I hope it it helps even a little.
