Friend went to the local Triumph mega dealer and inquired about ordering a D-Tool carb mixture tool. Their price $50.00. Jeez the nerve of some of these dealers. He called me and ask if I thought that sounded right. Needless to say I ordered him one from one of our great vendors for $18.00.

It's not the hit on the head that bothers me, (That's happened lots of times), it's the cost of the vaseline...After I first bought my America, I did some research on here and other, and the prices of some of the replacement parts fairly popped my eyeballs out! Luckily, I haven't needed any of those parts!

If they're using vasoline, you can bet there's sand in it. Remember - An optimist sees a glass as half-filled, a pessimist as half empty, and a cynic says it's full, but someone probably pi$$ed in it.

So Bob, in essence, what you're sayin' here is that there's really very little difference between a cynic and a urologist, huh?! 
(...ya know, now that you mention it, my urologist, Dr. Bernie Tupperman, can be a rather bitter little man sometimes!!!)

Yep! Just like a good Single Malt Scotch, you might call me "an acquired taste" TOO.(among the many OTHER things you may care to call me, of course)

If you spent your days performing prostate exams you'd probably not be the most cheerful guy around either. lol
