My Recent Projects/Upgrades

So I've done a few more upgrades this fall... switched to a Puig Double Bubble Windscreen, added a Galfer Wave rear rotor... oh, and I have upgraded to fatherhood!



Mason Steele was born November 4th and has taken a lot (but not all) of my attention away from the Superhawk since then.

Being a dad is just incredible... can't wait 'til he's big enough for his first minibike.

Congratulations bro! I became a Father again (already had 4 girls) of an amazing Boy on August 4th. His name is Haiden Michael, the name I chose for each of my children, had they been boys. This means I have been waiting 23 years to name a child Haiden. Fatherhood is truely a gift and it takes a real man to actually be a Dad, not just a Father. Congrats again man!

Thanks guys, and congrats t-dogg! It really is incredible, and life-changing.
Make sure your wife understands now that the Superhawk is "part of the family".

Ranchomice - Glad to hear you finally got to use it... Haiden Michael is a great name!

Rancho, U need to get snipped now that u got ur human male offspring. I have 3 human female offspring and + wife has meant waaaay too much estrogen to deal with. So having 4 +1 (presumably) I commend ur inner strength let alone waiting for 23 years for a male. I we tried again and succeeded, it would mean a 28+ year wait for us.

Again Olaf, congrats but DO NOT give up riding for the many reasons that can be cited, fatherhood being #1.
