Can't wait to try out my new performance mod

Post by KCScooterDude »

On Oct 19. I had a severe attack of pancreatitis caused by gall stones. Anyone who has had this knows it's a tough thing to get over. I was in ICU for eight days. I'm still getting over the complications, but by the time it warms up here in Kansas City I will be back on the roads and....45 pounds lighter! I can't wait to hit the throttle with 45 pounds less on board!

I am glad this didn't happen during riding season.

Glad you're felling better, fellow Mizzou fan.
Back in my drag racing days we used to figure for every 100 pounds lighter we built our cars we gained a one-tenth quicker ET in the quarter mile.
A half a tenth ain't bad, but it was kind of expensive though, wasn't it?

wow crap! 45lb, that's in lost weight due to surgery and not the stones themselves I hope. Glad to here your doing better, I had a friend with the same issue and now she can't drink coffee :cry:

Great performance mod! You'll definitely notice the difference in acceleration.
