I don't know what all this has to do with motorcycles, but............ I was in the lane to the left and slightly behind a van several years ago, and a shower of sparks started to come out from under it..... intermittently,.... but lots of them, for a mile or so. I could see something bouncing and banging. And then............... out from under comes the starter motor! I always wondered how he explained the missing starter after he got where he was going and turned the engne off............ and then tried to start it! I wouldn't believe his story, even though I saw it!!!

My first car was a 1966 Chevy II - basically a 4 door Nova they just called it a Chevy II because Nova's only had 2 doors at the time.... I was driving up I5 from the San Francisco Bay to Sacramento one night and a really load scraping sound started with a huge amount of sparks flying out the back. I pulled over and the exhaust was on the ground. No wonder the car was so load and was hard to start….. I had wire hanger in the back and used it to get the exhaust pipe off the ground. I pulled off at the next exit and found a gas station with an old guy working - it was at least 9pm. I told him my story and he just laughed but told me to pull the car into the bay. Long story short he used a coffee can and duct tape to “fix” the exhaust pipe. It was still like that 2 years later when I sold the car for $300 – which is what I paid for it. Great times and memories in that car – perfect for a college kid.
