I learned that if you have just enough time to install an Acewell gauge before the riding season starts, you shouldn't get carried away...

1. I CAN ride 900 miles with a bum knee if I want to bad enough. Vicodin is a wonderful thing.
2. Dirt hurts when you highside into it. Beer is a wonderful thing.
3. Sticky tires rock!

Thanks for that link CR, they have a SMOKING deal on the Bell Star lid that I was shopping for, you just saved me $350!! :woohoo:

I,ve learned that I need to live in a warmer place with no salt on the roads when the frost hits. But I wont wish for spring because thats 5-6 months away and I,ll be a lot older

. So enjoy the moment and as Joey Dunlop would have said " KEEP ER LIT "

Learn from yesterday , live for toiday and hope for tomorrow.

Cheers
