The Rush
« on: July 30, 2007, 10:00:40 PM »
This is what it feels like.

I was testing a new camera.

(this is NOT a public road ... it used to be ... closed section leading to a powerplant ... about 1.5 miles long.)

Testing camera my ___. ;D Was I dreaming or did the mirrors on your helmet bend all the way back and touch your helmet? ;) Sounds like you were testing "how to go WFO". :huepfenlol2:

LOL.

We go there to test stuff prior to going to the racetrack.  At the track all your gear, including cams have to pass tech inspection.  So, you need to know how it will work ahead of time.  Can't have stuff falling off the bike at speed ... and not too smart to test out riding on the public road.

So, we have this secret little closed section.

This camera failed the test by the way.  It snapped off the mount two runs later ... it's now in a zillion pieces in my garage.  D'oh.

WARRANTY ????  :nixweiss: :nixweiss: Say it came out of the box that way. ;D ;D  you know the UPS guy did it.
BTW I think you need to JB weld your mirrors in place as well.

LOL.  The warranty on that bike was gone 48 hours after I got it.  Who needs a theromastat, anyway?  It runs cooler w/o one.

She's got 26K on her now.  3.25 years old ... which is more than the two before her lasted.  They met with untimely racetrack related demises (say it isn't so).

Yup.  Something is wrong with my server ... and I'm out of town for 2 weeks.  Arghh.

I wont be able to fix it till I get back in town on the 13th of AUG.

Damn Windows 2000 Server.  I need to upgrade.
