    Top Sellerie mishap!

    It's a crappy way to do business for sure. Wish they made that seat in the USA...or Canada or England or Australia, or Belgium...or anywhere but France.

    Top Sellerie mishap!

    Eric, I'm feeling very guilty about this. I knew some of the trouble you were having but didn't realize they were still yanking your chain right up until just yesterday. I do love my TS seat and it is hands down the best custom seat I or any of my friends have ever ordered. When they get it...

    Manufacturer Reliability/Maintenance/Build Quality Scoring!

    I like your list. I too have talked to many mechanics and have friends with all those brands of bikes. My subjective findings are much like yours with one exception. I don't know if BMW is all that bad but I agree that it wouldn't crack the big four Japanese manufacturers.

    Bike grabbing.

    I find reverse works best when the front of your bike (the part with the windshield) faces uphill and the little green light on your dash is on. Then just release the brake and Voila!

    To all you ATGATT guys...

    Yep, thanks Eric! That was my reference but when I came back today I realized there were probably some that were not familiar with that episode of Seinfeld.

    Farting with a passenger

    I think you found a niche: Fart absorbant seat liners: When you really care about your passenger's nostrils.

    To all you ATGATT guys...

    About a month back I came into work with my leathers on and the young female secretary said "Looks like you just came from Brokeback Mountain." Not that there's anything wrong with that...

    I've gone over to the other side.....

    My Top Speed

    It's a clear day, riding the highway, and traffic is light. I twist the throttle and watch the speedometer rise. My limit is determined by: 1) The speed limit. I'm a laws person. They were created for my own protection as well as others. 2) I'm not so much a laws person but I'm not a risk...

    Last day in NH - ride to the ocean

    As I've said before, it's my "go to" ride. Too bad we couldn't all have met for that one but I did get lucky meeting Eric and Michele. Nice report!

    Calsci screen 8, 9.5 or 11"

    I got the 11" and it was absolutely perfect for me. But I'm only a puny 5'10".

    Scooter with a Big Gulp on the Interstate...

    To beat that I'd have to spot a clown on a moped heading down I-95 eating cotton candy. Since I haven't spotted that yet, I fold.

    Hairbrain Scheme #763

    Thank you very much. That's a very good way to look at it. I think my wife is good for 6 months of pissedoffedness as well.:spank: Been there. And I'm there again. Eric, my man, it's never a good idea to let a disgruntled wife talk to another wife. You'll have to trust me on that...

    Just came home with it. Are you familiar with the saying "better to ask for forgiveness than permission." We'll I'm going through that right now. Felicia is none too pleased. It's not like anyone's going to miss a meal. I mean, I payed cash for it and own it outright. She's just a...what's the...
