    Was just thinking about you, CaptainAmerica...

    One thing that I absolutely love to see is how everyone differs. Everyone is different. Thus, every bike is different, every helmet is different. Everyone’s gear is different.

    Someone mentioned a few days ago about motorcycle gangs. I agree. No ones going to tell me what to ride, when to ride and how to think and what to wear. That makes no sense to me. If everyone is the same, we really don’t have anything interesting or new to talk about.

    Anyways, that video made me think of your bike.

    I agree 100%. I'm not a fan at all.

    You guys running South to North watch your fueling strategies. Southern fuel often doesn't play well with Northern temperatures, especially when it gets down to -30.

    I realize that everyone on here understands this, so just a reminder, and maybe helpful to others that read this thread.

    Girl fight style.

    Sidewalk sissy standing over the driver, throws slap punches and kicks like he’s wearing a short skirt and trying to not show panties. Driver gets up and scrambles some brain. Kid had better be glad the driver was one handed. Brain scrambling completed, driver walks sissy out the door and cracked him once more.

    If my kid attacked a bus driver, I would beat my kid lifeless. Shameful behavior.

    I have executed my dueling strategy by instead running North to South....

    That should keep you out of trouble, at least until you hit the Gulf of Mexico!

    Did you get your issues taken care of at the WS dealer?

    Nope

    They mostly can’t do anything in less than a week.

    They are ordering a filter for my transmission oil cooler (been a day and half) just to finish the regular service. The boost issue they are saving for last.

    On the plus side - the guy that leased his truck to me and had the dealer destroy his engine at the end of October/beginning of November- could be up and running again next week or early the following week.

    Detroit finally completed the engine build and it arrived at the dealer in Colorado yesterday. That is 90-100 days for those keeping track.

    I hope it all goes smooth and he can get running and start climbing out of my pocket

    Warranty ain’t worth a #### when you have that kind of down time

    I know there is a lot going on on this, none of which is my business, but good on you for helping the fellow work through it.
