The fact that flame throwers exist is proof that someone somewhere said "I'd sure like to set those people over there on fire but I'm just not close enough to get the job done."

What to you think is going on with the oil cooler on the NCR M4?  The upper part appears to be the oil cooler while the lower part is closed off with carbon fiber and appears to have a coolant hose coming out of the back.

Just taking another look.  I wonder if the headlight bucket and trim ring are made of titanium?  Also just noticed that the carbon fiber tail section appears to be removable for a different look.

Being faster than you thought possible…it feels good. No, screw that—it feels like shotgunning a gallon of adrenaline and chasing it with an all-night orgy aboard a burning Viking boat.

Money. What's that? Grin Bet those high dollar wheels make a big handling difference. waytogo Dolph The stock wheels I think are made from lead... as you well know. Roll Eyes Lighter rolling stock has to make huge improvements on any scooter. Hey, maybe that's what's wrong with the GP11?? laughingdp

"Yelling out of cars, turning your speakers out the window to blast your music onto the street, setting off M-80 firecrackers, firing automatic weapons into the air—these are all well and good. But none of them create a merry atmosphere of insouciance and bonhomie quite like a revving motorcycle.

That carbon panel on the back wouldn't let the air pass through...

Yeah, I thought about that.  Actually that connector looks like a ganged electronics connector.
