**** I got big hands & fly Screen never scum knuckles on any brackets with or with out gloves on.

And I'll get on the why band wagon, why no sixth gear, why no new model 3000cc, why not cheaper to buy, why oh bloody why, just got to learn to be happy with what you got.

Or you cloud be like a lot of captains that weren't happy with what they had and they done something about it with out all the "Why" crap.

I will now get of my soap box and go to bed.

Agree with the gears - I keep looking for sixth coz it has so much torque it could easly pull another gear. I think its under geared, Harley run a six speed box too though Harleys engine doesn't have the guts to pull sixth, its like an overdrive to it, got to be doing 70 when you slot it in.
