I was a fan of Castrol R but also of Blendzall Gold Label and Klotz. I would guess we are speaking a foreign language to many DMFers right now! [laugh] Dammit I miss 2 strokes in GP racing!! [bang] Of course I also still miss the push starts in GP. I've earned the Grumpy Old Fart moniker honestly. [thumbsup] ;)
I plan to list the Federal Gov't. as a dependent on my next 1040 tax filing!

I have flying honey badgers and I'm not afraid to use them!

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."

CONFIDENCE: the feeling you have right before you understand the situation.

"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 airâ€"these are all well and good. But none of them create a merry atmosphere of insouciance and bonhomie quite like a revving motorcycle.

When I saw this.... my mind ran the movie clip where Steve McQueen attempts to jump the barbed wire fence to freedom in Switzerland (even though I know that bike was actually a Triumph prenteding to be a BMW  ;)).

Nice.  Always liked the 350xl colour scheme.
