Best line I heard today...

watching Pawn Stars...guy comes in with collection of vintage PEZ Dispensers....explains retail value of certain ones...thinks he is going to get 5K for the collection

Pawn shop douches offer him their usual insulting lowball...like 50 bucks or something

PEZ Guy sputters in disbelief and outrage...exclaims "This is an insult to the PEZ Community"

I want the teeshirt that has that line across the front....

"This Is An Insult To The PEZ Community"

A short bit from yesterday trying the new camera angle.
Never had been on this road before so I just poked along.



Is that mounted on the frame?  I've thought about that, but wasn't sure you would see much aside from the front wheel.

On another note.  Got a ticket today, BUT I think it really belonged to the SUV trying to pass me on the inside lane.  Anybody with knowledge of radar (I guess, trooper was opposite lanes and clocked me from the front and back with different speeds) and clocking and accuracy when a bike is beside a much larger vehicle (Benz MLK350) shoot me a PM.  I believe the front facing speed, but not the rear antenna speed.

yeah, mounted on the frame right next to the one throttle body.
I'll take a picture tomorrow.

I'll do a better road  [evil] with this camera position on both bikes.
That road was just ok. I did a far better road soon after but the battery had run out at that point. I have tons of video of boring roads from that day as what I typically do is just turn the camera on regardless of where I'm riding, just in case something interesting happens. Need to get a second battery as they are only good for about 3 hours.

Putting you foot down on the wrong side of an uneven road surface can really suck....been there

ego takes more of a beating than anything else

Glad you and the ride are ok!!

Thanks guys...doesn't help that I can only reach one toe down or the other.  No worries I have been there many times before, it's just been a while.

Occasional showers dont bother me  ;D

Had a ball today whipping the DR along dirt roads where... I was the traffic..... while (amongst others) Van the Man thrashed out "in the days before rock and roll" inside my XD3 concert dome  [Dolph].

And nothing sprays shite up the back of your helmet like a brand new knobby rear tyre.... woohoo... what fun  [thumbsup]

Clearly someone else saw this and realized the magnitude of its significance

Last 10 or 20 seconds the line is delivered that may alter the course of humankind
