Yep! Ya see, REAL motorsickles last about 40,000 miles(maybe) before they have to be rebuilt.

That there thing you're ridin' boy will probably last...say...TWICE THAT before y'all gots to do anything to it.

So...I can see(wink, wink) why that "old(and set in his ways) dude" said that.

Can ya BLAME him???

Cheers,
Dwight
(trust me....I have a "real" Triumph(1970 T120) and a new one(2002 BA) and love 'em both, but I wouldn't THINK of riding the older one[and it doesn't have any Lucas or Amal crap left on it] HALF as far as I'd take the newer one)

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)
