About this site

 
This page in the index to all weekly updates I've written about my 1st generation (1999) Hayabusa ownership experience and other interesting stuff.  Initially the only point of new information these update notes are now a diary of the major personal experiences on riding the Hayabusa and other related matters.

These entires are my point of view (POV) and my opinions and hence BLOG like. See the News archive link elsewhere on this page for specific motorbike news, historical or otherwise !

Note that some weeks are missing or disorganised  - I will restore or correct them as soon as I can find the backups.
