Not a bad description! I've got a few theories but the subject might merit a doctoral thesis.
I'm 1/3 of the way to Charlottesville from Richmond and while there ARE still a few slow drivers out here, the pace of traffic picks up quite a bit. In fact, some of the pickups out here approach warp speed and even make good "rabbits" for the
when I'm out on one of the bikes. Go figure!
Hmmm, not really surprising that the problem seems to get worse the closer to DC you get. That being said, DC drivers are maybe a bit better than NoVA drivers. I'm from Michigan originally and grew up with the idea that it is a driver's responsibility to use the road "efficiently" aka stay out of other people's way.

Was it in asking for help in removing my charcoal/vapor canister? Because I need help with that! I got the actual Ducati euro bolts and washers, the 2 into 1 tube and even the euro shroud to replace the one on there holding the can. Kind of lost if I have to pull the tank off or something like that.

Just someone with an Aniversary Evo looking for people to ride with.
That evap canister removal is easy. I did it on mine soon after buying it. Just remove the tank skins, not the tank. You'll see the breather hose on the left side of the tank leading down to the canister.

Yeah, I remember now. It was me!
So the screws go into the cylinders heads once I pull off the hoses (use washer and Loctite, right?) and then the t-hose connector connects to where? That's where I'm lost.

You'll have 2 tubes coming from the tank. One is the overflow, the other is a vent. The vent goes to the canister, the overflow goes down the side to the bottom of the bike. I T'd the vent to the overflow.
You'll then have one tube from each cylander going to the canister. I pulled the tubes and put little vacume caps where they connect to the heads. But you can leave the tubes and just plug them with a screw.

This is the set of instructions I used. About half way down it shows the nipples going to the evap and mentions the T fitting for the fuel vent/overflow lines.

You must be kidding... just the density of cabbies in DC plunges their average below NoVa

That's a decent point, but I think my point still stands if we're only talking "civilians". At least the cab driver might be driving 17 mph because he is saving a few pennies on gas, trying to run up the meter or desperately looking for a fare. I may not like it, but at least there's a plausible explanation. When it's a new 7-series with a 40-something year old driver going 17 mph, I am completely befuddled.

A reminder that Bikes-in-the-Bottom is this coming Sunday at Poe's, 9:30ish to 11ish. Weather might be OK in the morning. Too early to say. I'll probably ride in if showers hold off until mid-afternoon. Who else is game?
