Hey Jeff,
Yeah, Saturday turned out to be a great day for a ride. Clear, warm, and the hardwoods along the river were just starting to turn red and gold. We kept up a brisk pace, but I think our group leader Ty was just idling that Rocket III. I know what you mean about JDs handlebars. I was searching for the brake when I hit the end of the parking lot.
Jeff, how did you survive the rain last night. What a downpour! You guys up north have been getting hammered the last couple weeks. Last week it was tornadoes and straight line winds and then last night it's record rainfall. I saw some local news pictures that looked like New Orleans.
I know that the Freak was cheaper at one time than it is now. It seems like it might have been $150 when I first heard about it, but I just can't remember. Maybe I'll search the archives. For sure the price has been creeping up. I think it's called 'Freak Creep'.
Cryption, In this context FREAK is a pseudo acronym for Airbox Removal Kit. Not sure how the 'F' plays in there. It might stand for one of those optional scatalogical modifiers that can be a noun/verb/adjective. Here's a
link to Brent's offering. Back in my heyday the word freak meant something entirely different, as in the participants of the Woodstock festival. These days it could refer to anyone who rides a Vespa.
