Were not immune, it's just that these babies don't pick up on
'thin' objects (motorcycles) very well.  On the last Army installation
I worked on, the trailer didn't pick me up until I was almost on
top of it and then it read about 15mph too low! ;-)

I've noticed that cops (hand held units) don't do much better.
I've found myself in several situations where I had time to slow 
down . . . the cop was visible at a pretty good range.  Had I
been in the cage . . doing the same speed (does my cage go *that*
fast?!?!?!?) I would've received a ticket.

I've managed shifts through to 5th gear on my old XR200.  It's
quite a gas to pull it up in 1st or 2nd, and then just continue
accelerating through the gears with the front end aiming at the
sky.  There is a definite learning curve here.  I spent much time
on my *ss at first.  Practise was performed in large open wheat
or bean fields after harvest, so veering one way or the other was
no problem.  After the technique was mastered, it could be
reproduced on demand, say to make an impressive departure from
the in-laws house, or something of that sort!!
I tried to reach the same level of proficiency on my RD350, but
I had lost the nerve of my younger years.  I also found it harder
to smoothly shift to second on the RD.  RPM matching is critical,
so as not to flip you over on the shift.  I'm sure many others
have mastered such a feat, so lets hear from you!

 Well in an effort to locate the DoD horn of choice I've called

You miss the point. I never claimed that it was an accurate statement. 
My claim was that your estimate, based on a particularly small sample 
and ignoring any difference between the populations measured and those 
projected, was no more accurate. It's clearly possible to do some stupid
things with numbers. My contribution is at least amusing.

	I don't know if this qualifies as expensive equipment, but I
shoot the carb solution through my airbrush. Works great, I can get a
direct stream right into the carb, or flow it out for full blast, or
simply just blow air straight through. The only drawback is all the
cleaning afterwards, and the dedicated airhose (don't wanna be mixing

I don't know if it's considered proper technique, but I typically use throttle
modulation as a steering aid when riding my Beemer. Rolling it on helps to 
correct for taking a turn too tight. The explanation above seems reasonable.

Maybe you're not whacking the throttle hard enough. Or you have excellent rear
suspension. Then again, maybe I'm confusing fork extension with shock 
compression. Anyway, most chain drive bikes I've ridden sure feel like they
squat.

Rolling on in a corner is no problem if it's done smoothly, at least with my
old R90S. Only shaftie I've ridden much, so I can't say about others.

	I think that Mr. Ian Howie wishes this were true.  Dunno if
you remember the post (Beginning of July), however Mr. Howie gave 
Mr. Pavement a visit due to front wheel lockup.  However, there
were some extenuating circumstances such as a tar & chip road with

> "Nothing is as overrated as a bad ride, or as underrated as a good post."


Reminds me of the lead-in quote to the book, "Weaving Clothes from Corn Silk":

  "Nothing is as overrated as a bad SHUCK, or as underrated as a good FIT."

Hello folks,
   Is anybody saving all the Spagthorpe posts?  I sure hope so, because
I see the making of a great coffee-table book here.  I would like to 
save them all, but the early ones have already expired, so who's got 'em?
