The way I've got my eternal money pit rigged, I can rejet my carbs (fast and slow jets) in approximately 14 minutes, starting and ending with the pillion pad bolt.
Who can beat that?

my bike is so fast, when I get on, it only takes a minute before I'm in a whole other world 
Always remember to be yourself. Unless you suck. Then pretend to be someone else.

With the touring seat, I feel pretty sure my America and I could do the 26.2 mile marathon without breaking a sweat... and beat the kenyans.

Around here , I'm constantly training for the 50 meter deer kill. I'm still trying to perfect my technique, i.e., the slide and scrape, the head on smasher and my most sucessful, side to side slide and wind, aka, the sidewinder. I really looking forward to that gold medal in the sky!

Considering I'm not forced onto my Triumph at the early age of 3, I think I'm already a winner compared to most of the world's countries.

Some day this may be an olympic event...
Today wnet out to have lunch with the wife. While waiting for her in grocery store parking lot(she works at the store)
I observed a young mother,Wheel her shopping cart up to her mini van. Load her toddler into said van, strap him in. Wheel cart to other side of van,Load groceries into vehile. return cart to designated collection point. Return to mini van.Enter said van and drive off.
All in under 5 minutes and here was the tricky part. All without removing the hand held cell phone from her head. AMAZING DISPLAY OF STREANGTH AND COORDINATION an olympic quality performance if ever I've seen one.
One thing though. I think her childs right arm may be an inch or so longer than the left now.
The percentage you're paying is too high-priced
While you're living beyond all your means
And the man in the suit has just bought a new car
From the profit he's made on your dreams

Mine is a time machine. I start it up, and It's suddenly turned around and it's several hours in the future.
