the pipes were so loud.......i didn't hear the FHP pulling our group over today..........gave the leader a fast driving award.............and after looking at my license and insurance card.,( I was second in the group, right behind the leader.)....................and NOT noticing i had NO bike license or even a learners permit. :oops: ...........gave me a warning for "following too close" :wink: I didnt want to tell the cop.........I was right on him....cause i was SLOWING DOWN to turn....LOL I had already told the group.............."looks like i get a free ride in a police car. :oops: So after lunch................the leader was a tad hesitant to hit the throttle..................so.........TA DA................i led em home hitting 120......and bouncing off 130................thinking.............."sure hope Jethro is wrong!"


P.S. fast driving awards are going for $180. US at that speed. :wink:

Man, I hope for your sake that I am wrong. I think you should seriously
consider getting that TB installed right away.

Great, I'm glad it all worked out for you. Now you've got to do the triples,

I know by now I must sound like a broken record, but when you do it you'll thank me. :)

Yeah, I was worried about being caught in the rain myself until last weekend in Daytona. Saturday Maia and I were caught in a torrential
downpour and we road for awhile and also left it out in the rain for hours,
now I'm happy to say, no problems at all. I don't worry about it anymore. :D
