    Public service announcement

    You have just washed your bike. You have ran it nicely for a few minutes for it to warm up. You may want to refrain from going under the bike and checking how shiney and smooth the header pypes are by touching them.

    I lost some fingerprints by feeling up the tip of my newly installed Yoshimura TRS on my GSXR1000 once

    Watched Forest Gump lately Toto?
    To laugh often and much; to win the respect of intelligent people and the affection of children; to earn the appreciation of honest critics and to endure the betrayal of false friends. To appreciate beauty; to find the best in others; to leave the world a bit better whether by a healthy child, a garden patch, or a redeemed social condition; to know that even one life has breathed easier because you have lived. This is to have succeeded

    Yeah I've done this before... Just got back from a pootle and went to brush off some 'dust' from the headers. It wasn't as satisfying as I'd have thought dusting would be.

    There was this other time, where I went to make sure the PCB on an iffy PSU wasn't overheating Bridged the circuit right behind the terminals, didn't I

    And since TOTO is obviously in this mode of operation ... remember that if you are going to be staring at girls in a servo, try and not let the drool dribble from your chin!

    (also helps if they are of legal age too! )

    It is indeed a sore lesson to learn.

    I remember quite vividly hopping off helenoftroy's DR650 after a quick test ride, talking a bit of shit about it.
    I made a comment about the peculiar exhaust note, leaning on the exhaust as I did so.

    Bad, bad move...

    I like the rider who came to a stop after a bit of a ride, lost his balance and fell over. As he lay there with his bike on his leg he was thinking, "How the *&%^$ am I going to get this bike off me?", then he felt the burn of the the exhaust through his jeans and in the moment of searing pain wasn't quite sure what happened but his leg was no longer under the bike. It's amazing how intense pain can motivate you to move quickly.
