See, there's what I need. I need a girlfriend with more riding experience than I. She could save me anytime. :D
OH. Speaking of attractive women and motorcycles, one of my neighbors came by while I was working on the bike last time around (when it was almost completely apart). We talked for about half an hour about Nighthawks in particular; she's thinking about getting one herself, and wanted to know which one I had and what I thought of it. I recommended it quite neatly, and added that I've found them really easy to work on (because I have) and told her if she got one, at least she knew who to come talk to for maintenance and such. Too bad she's married. :( Anywho. Glad nobody's been seriously injured! I've had instances of "now when in the name of all that's hellish did I do /that/?" with respect to injuries before, though usually they didn't involve ripping nails off. -Kurt On Thu, Apr 14, 2011 at 8:58 PM, Druk <[email protected]> wrote: > I had just gotten my license that month, and my girlfriend and I were > out for a ride (I on a '91 750, she on an '86 650).
