Tick Tock William, your shit-hot black 1098S with full track set up is still up for bids

nah...

I've turned a new leaf. I don't need it as I'm never going fast again. The law has shown me the way, and the way is slow and easy. I'm selling the Duc and taking up golf.

no, it's true. anybody want to hang out tonight? I'm gonna go grab a bite at Luby's before hitting the bingo hall. look for the beige K-car.

Is the flash mob signal out?

OMG, say it ain't so:  K-Car?!?!

On the bright side, check out Luby's strained spinach - it's one of the sides on there Happenin' Seniors menu - you'll dig it  (yes of course I'm speaking from experience)

So I couldn't sleep night before last, so I went outside around midnight and saw this spider about 10 feet up with a huge web.  The spider was about the size of a half dollar and doing a killer (pun intended) job of collecting dinner.

Grabbed my new camera and took a few snaps.  Posted two to my photoblog:

That's going to give me nightmares

Very nice

wow!  that's some crazy detail you can see, and the green really pops!

This is STILL my favorite photo of Cher 

Yeah that was before  the angry emoticon giving-people-the-finger was added to the DMF emoitcon repitoire.

Strange, but I can't seem to find it now...

Apparently industrial velcro is no match for the vibes on the 848.

I mounted my garage door opener under the nose fairing to ease the in/out of my apartment complex.  About half-way to work this morning, I feel the opener hit my left hand and bounce off onto the superslab.  2 openers down.... 



Side note:
I passed IP and Anthony from the 59ers on Garland Rd yesterday.  I think they were about to hit the pubs... I was on my way back home from work

Crappity Crap! Bummer about the opener... We should be able to come up with SOMETHING that'll work.

Yep, IP & ANthony have a side gig as furniture movers. We met up at Capital Pub after. 1st time there, nice place

Wow, surprised the velcro didn't work. Have done the same thing on my scoots. Velcro is some tough s#@t. Did it separate at the velcro or did the double stick tape give up where it sticks to the fairing and the opener? I've had that failing tape problem on my cars. There have been several car burglaries in my neighborhood where they only wanted the garage door opener to get into the garage, house, etc. Since I park my cars outside in the driveway I now take the openers in the house with me. Don't have to worry about the velcro or the tape anymore.

Stopped putting the opener in my jacket pocket on rides too. Was in the driveway warming the bike up and when I threw a leg over the seat to take off it somehow mashed the button on the opener. Presto... up goes the garage door. If I hadn't been looking in that direction to see it I would have ridden off into the distance leaving my whole garage and house exposed!

The velcro came apart, not the stick on the fairing or the opener itself.  I think the curve of the fairing may have prevented the velcro from biting all the way hence the opener slowly coming off.  I'll just have to find a better place for the next one

I "zip tied" mine to the bracket holding the clutch fluid resovoir.
