Harley Davidson doesn't make all that crap.  They license their name
and logo to go on it.  It is free money, and free advertising, and
smart business.

Not inconceivable.  I suggested they fund Buell's expansion.

I agree.  I think it would be dumb for Harley Davidson to try to fill
that niche.  It's not their game.

100% true, and 100% beside the point.

The analogy was not a comparison of product markets, but the disparity
between the image a company has fostered for years, and which its main
customer base identifies with, and a product that is a de facto
refutation of that very image.  That's dumb business.

In addition, I had just put Dunlopads on the back, which seem to need to be
warm to work well, so stopping on a weak rear brake only was entertaining.

  In all my years of going up to Alices, I have never heard anyone prove 
the existence of the century club.  No one was ever up there with
communication equipment and timing devices to verify the average speed of
100 mph to the best of my knowledge. 

  Has anyone heard of or participated in setting up such a verification
system for the century club?

  Like so much bench racing, this seems to be .. uhhhh .. an exaggeration.

Regarding left hand sidestands, it is suspiciously convenient for us Brits.  I
wonder if it is because they were first fitted bikes here?  When I go 
"To Europe" (c) it is a bit strange having the bike lean out into the road and
having to go out into the road to get on (only 1% of the time from the right).

Does anybody have access to some history?

You can buy a similar device that covers one eye.  Developed for
Apachie Helecoptor pilots, I think.  Steven Roberts pumps an IBM CGA

Hello all you speed freaks!

	I am wondering if anyone out there has experience modifying a 500  
Interceptor or 500 Ninja. I want to build a project bike (engine mods,  
paint, etc.) and I am looking for something small, light, and manouverable  
which can produce a lot of power. 

	My dream setup is a turbocharged, intercooled (if it will fit),  
nitrous augmented engine. This bike will not be my commuter, so  
practicalities will not be a problem.

	Anyway, to keep it short, let me know if you have any experience  
with this.

	Thanks in advance

	Reading this summary of the Road Rider article reminded
me of a segment of "Motorweek 93" I saw last weekend.  This is
a car show on PBS.  There's a segment in which a mechanic answers
viewer questions, and the topic for today (good day, eh?) was
additives like Slick 50.

	He started off by saying that he had never seen any
serious studies to support the claims of the additive vendors.
But in his experience as a mechanic he has not seen any examples
of damage caused by the stuff either.  Next he got to what could
have been interesting.  Lined up on the table was a rack of
test tubes.  Each contained a different additive product
mixed with regular motor oil and left to sit.  You could see
that some looked pretty uniform but some had definite piles of
white stuff settled in the bottom.  He said that if stuff settles
out in the crankcase like it settles in the test tube, how much
good can it be doing?  It should stay mixed in the oil to do
what the vendors claim.

	But now, instead of identifying, or at least criticizing
the stuff, he finished up with some lame hand waving like
"if you feel comfortable using it and you think it is beneficial
then by all means go ahead and use it."   Grrr!  Pretty gutless.

Chris,

I really like cookies A LOT!!  I'd be willing to buy the recipe from you;
how much would it cost?

What's that you say?  Two-fifty?

Okay.

Put it on my credit card.

without arguing the benefits of MSF, i think you're being a little
overzealous here, jerry.  seems he's asking for advice about how to
help her to learn to ride, not your judgment of his decision to help
her learn to ride.

As a dog lover, I was greatly concerned that a dog would bite a biker!
Did you insult the dog, such as by riding a Japanese bike which infuriates
all law abiding Canine-Americans, thus driving him into this criminal act???
