Wow. I didn't ever think we would have all this to think about!! Guzzisti everywhere under fire from Mother Nature! I am truly glad you are OK. Perhaps you might want to PM TX Redneck to find out how to look after your claim. He does not seem to have done so well but I will bet he knows the system a bit now!! Not meaning to take the wind out of your sails or anyone else but his poor planet has had disasters from tsunami's in Indonesia to earthquakes in Pakistan with mudslides in Guatemala, El Salvador and Colombia that no one seems to notice!! I give great thanks to be where I am.

I tremble in my shorts (and do other things if it as bad as you say)!

There is a new program coming up about a bunch of young Canadian boys picked to simulate BCATP (British Commonwealth Air Training Plan) training on bombers flying in WW2. It seems to be similar to proram training pilots from almost nothing to flying in the RAF/Battle of Britain. They will go through realistic training and if they make the cut will end up flying an AVRO Lancaster. It starts November 7 and is a prelude to a week of remembrance! I remember always but I look forward this program as it is an important part of Canadas contribution to WW2. I will post more when I find out more details. (must search now!)

Wait 'til Jaap busts me. Then I'll have to start over again.

I probably do not. I'm not sure but did we not already have this quiz once before? TX scooped one the same way. I guess I'll have to check to see if I deserve it.

I know where to get one if anyone is interested!! Brand new at a dealer!

I tried......

At least you did not turn out like this! You might need some anger management training if you did!!

No? But do you not want to smoke his head from the leaves now?

Here you go: Bono after he has taken his rasta hat off. Natty dreds. P.S. Not responsible for anyone losing contents of stomach over quality of photo.

.....and here I thought Bono was a town in Arkansas. (Bono is located at 35°54'38" North, 90°47'48" West). Usually Bono is confused with Bono, an Akan state which existed from the 15th to the 18th century in what is now the Brong-Ahafo region of Ghana. Almost never confused with a hearing aid store!!

It is starting to look like a Klingon.

Was this set to a published tolerance? Did you recieve any recompense from Guzzi?

Watching the radio as you eat your jello?

Was this you? drunkdriver? (Just kidding)

Don't forget that important axiom: "Ninety percent of all drivers think they are better drivers than ninety percent of all drivers!!"

How did we get from titanium to jello?

I liked this one. Electric jello sounds way more fun than electric lettuce!!

Ratification? Isn't that what they do in those labs that the PETA freaks get wound up over? Rat Monster

Has anyone cooked a valve from setting the valves to the closer tolerances? I agree with BrianG's post that it is mainly to improve low end response. I didn't think that setting the valves to the minimum lash would damage the bike. I'll have to check mine!!

The 750 sport version of course - not the 1000 cruiser type.

Well said!!!

Did you see the size of the tires on that thing???

Give us his email address, TX, and we will explain it to him!!

Drysdale V8!
