Post auto pilot

Sprock I ride one handed too , but my leathers are too tight around the wrist to wear a watch and I'm too poor to have sat-nav

Infact now my wobble is cured I like to ride no-hands , the balance of these bikes is coooooooooool!!

I also ride with one bollock and I neeeeeeeed the clock 'cos if I come home late again , the missus will rip off the other one
Well being Irish we use that third appendage .......but only on warm days !

(oh I can see this gettin' jumped on right away !)

I guess though you have it down good for a one armed one nutted soon to
be bored out 'cane rider ............*****

GPS's with clocks are getting cheaper........but forks and screens first outta
the big 50 party budget right matey ?

The idea with the large **** on the petcock was to be able to use it with gloves on. I ride in the cold a great deal and I like that idea. (Honda thinking)

I toss my wrist watch in the tank bag while riding. I don't care what time it is when riding. I make like a baby and head out early in the day and get back home form weekend rides late.I just don't care when I get to any where. I don't tell anyone where I am going or when I am getting back.

It's not about the trip, it's about the adventure.

You know round these part the word **** can be used as a term of endearment.

I can handle the odd "How you doin ****", but really have trouble with "Have you got the time on you ****"
