Good to hear your back on the road and dancing with a great new gal!

Isn't there some way you can wire an ignition coil from an old Austin 7 to the frame so it'll shock the sh*t out of any stranger who touches her?

Wouldn't a fully charged BIG capacitor be better??!

Cheers, SB

I have an old Hammond organ with a tube amp and what are commonly know as "death caps". Old paper and wax capacitors that can cause a fatal shock if not discharged properly. Those might just be the ticket

Maybe the South African Flamethrower could be scaled down to MC scale.

Can't see it catching on.

There's probably already been some namby pamby, vegetarian, left wing pressure group formed demanding protection for car-jackers as they go about their normal daily business.

The world has gone mad.

But I also have to wonder why someone would bother to steal a 25 year old, hard to get into the back of a van motorcycle?

Wouldn't it be much easier to steal an R1 or R6? They might at least have some resale value.
Probably someone that doesn't know the difference between an R6 and a twenty year old CBR.

My condolences. Hope you get it back in good shape.
