The air up here is just about the same as down there, but a bit more cluttered with low doorways, ceiling fans, and light fixtures

Riding the pillion has crossed my mind. I have sat and tried it to see if legroom was suffiecient, and it seems to be. However, I would need to replace the handlebars if I did, cause then the handlebars are a little out of comfortable reach
And my other thought if I did that would be to try to convert the driver's seat into some sort of compartment, which, as far as I can tell, would make a unique ride
Technically, nobody owns it seeing as it's not tagged/registered at the moment. But, it will definitely be my name on the title
I like the bike, so far, considering the limited riding experience I have. The only other bike I've ridden for any extent of time was one of the 250s at the MSF course. *That* one cramped my hips up so badly for the first few exercises I wasn't sure if I would be able to complete the course. I definitely like the way the controls are on the Savage, compared to the Honda 250 I rode at the MSF course. The Honda's controls were basically horizontal with the pegs, so it felt a bit awkward to run them, IMO.
I do like to tinker, but am not the most mechanically inclined. I did pick up a Clymer manual, so I've got a little printed help.
Is that detailed enough for the inquiring minds?
Oh, I also added a pic of the bike to the "Posters' Picture Gallery" thread, in case anyone is interested. Which, oddly, says I posted at 12:29am on November 26 of 2004 when in fact it was at 8:31am this morning. Any particular reason the 2 stickied picture threads seem to reflect the posting date of the original message rather than the most recent?
