  1. An Elvis Presley favorite snack was a peanut butter and nanar sandwich as I recall. Do you mean dud maybe? A dude (dood) is a male. In the last century, a male with fancy attire. To your point, a Guzzi Centauro is def a nanar
  2. Happy Christmas to you sir. It's a great time to be alive.
  3. ^^^ Wow. nice. ^^^
  4. What with low miles, and the seller apparently motivated to sell, And a top Guzzi guy knowing what is needed to bring her up to reasonable standards, this is looking more like a real find for someone wanting to add a bike or replace a 'long in the tooth' bike. How often does one see a classic come up 'word of mouth'? If I were not so long in the tooth, I might be westward bound.
  5. the stuff movies are made of
  6. I'm wondering if RAM or someone else, makes a clutch for this model. My RAM single plate is a 2 finger pull.
  7. "one of the greatest music films of all time" - Wim Wenders quite an endorsement from one of the greats Hope to get to see it trailer...
  8. I was one of those late night partiers, and have a fond affection for him, and the Mac, having seen them live half a dozen times as well as Lindsey on his own. He is a little bit nuts. Stevie drove him round the twist me thinks. It provides a glimpse into the soul not often seen in artists.
  9. I thought they did a pretty good job with the movie. Some great bikes, sets, and a few good actors.
  10. yup, good whiskey makes for good neighbors. or some such..
  11. Happy Thanksgiving to you sir. I have much to be thankful for this year.
  12. neutral light may be a bulb or other. relay #5 far to the rear runs the pump. swap it out with new or another one, maybe #3 (docc?) and see if the pump works. clean contacts of all of them. what brand of relays are in it? lesser ones do go bad.
  13. perfectly describes why I sold the DRZ, even though it was the DR 650 that threw me down, jumped on me, and broke my leg. The one I didn't sell. I'll never learn.
  14. I was getting to know my K1200rs on my first spirited ride with it and fellow vacationers on the beautiful stream-side roads in North Carolina one fall day. Flat, but pretty twisty, 60ish mph +/- and I was at the tail of a 6 rider line. I thought I was doing pretty well keeping up with more seasoned sport riders. I was surprised when out of nowhere I was passed (with extreme prejudice) by 3 loud single cyl motards with riders standing on the pegs as they swept and in and out and passed us all. I recall thinking "I should re-evaluate my priorities maybe"
  15. Pleasant video. I couldn't tell if he is thinking of downsizing from or to the Zed. Or if his concern is physical size or power. Maybe both.? I've been downsizing ever since a gust of wind blew over my precariously parked 600lb K1200RS. The Guzzi is now my only remaining weighty vice. Only 450lb or (much) less weight bikes are my future. The new Triumph Scrambler 400 X has my attention. I like the Enfields. My most insanely fun bike was a DRZ 400SM. I thought it might kill me so I sold it.
  16. Docc, that will carry me through the job I have in my kitchen tomorrow. Here is a short classic Emmylou @ around 30 years old. It's too bad more video/audio from that era didn't have Martin Scorsese recording.
  17. Exact experience for me. My FBF was poorly made as well
  18. this - I started hopping the velvet ropes at the 'herding' lines in my early 20's
  19. @docc I listned to wmot all day today - fun https://www.wmot.org/playlist#stream/0
  20. don't wait https://www.valueyourmusic.com/most-valuable/78-rpm/all-time
  21. best of the bunch. heck of a deal
  22. Whereabouts in Fl are you? Keep the powder dry.
