Hmm yeah got a point but they sounds like the same crew Trout hangs with
now and then........so what the hell ........nothing ventured nothing gained.

A take along.......now that's an idea .....and know a few ladies that'd be
game for it too.

And Trout .......that's not a challenge you are not even in the same league.


ME: Aeronautical Engineering ......Avionics......didn't stick with it though.
Were only so many of those flying shamrocks back then.

HAAA! You'd prolly be back behind the Harley boys, tryin' to keep up. "It's cuz they have more torque!", you'd say...

BTW, I like your new sig pic. Although... I counted the teeth on that front sprocket, and it doesn't have 18....

Ok, I wiped cat foot prints (I think it was a cat) off the seat and rear cowl. But I don't have a cat. And the bike was in the garage. Nervous.
