    So how do you have a good Wank with Hippo Hands, and do Hippos have Hands, and has any one told the Hippos, dont tell the Greenies about the Hippos with hands, cause they will want a hand job to from the Hippos with hands, So I think we keep this whole thing under wraps till we can all go thake some Hallucinogenic drugs, then the answer will be clear to us.

    You might want to try adding small spring 4.2 - it's hard to download, perhaps you can google for a licence?, but it's not expensive at any rate. I'm surprised that you would go from the safety of the BMW OS; Ducati, like any MS OS, can be problematic, and can sometimes cause problems depending on the hardware installed - especially pillion 6.4 (assuming that it's the wife plug in, and not hot chick 6.9).

    If you decide you need more performance, and you would like to really improve throughput, try downloading GSXR vk6 or higher.

    Kind regards, techsup.
    Thanks "Tech" and I'm glad HippoHands 20.05 has been clarified for the bewildered.

    The Ducati/ST4 mainframe is actually running Unix (not Microsoft) but in Italian which causes read errors. Fortunately due to the superb operating skill of the technician, the system has not crashed - so far. Rebooting certainly works but once the BIAS on the tyres is run up to speed, AutoBraking kicks in again.

    Actually I like Viffermans suggestion - install Comalco(TM) extruded case-mod - would I have to heat it to bend, or should this be outsourced to Engineer 9.9.9.0/1? I'd intended to use Cyclone No 8 extruded steel but that was a belt and braces remedy.

    As for Spring 4.2, that would place extra stress on the operator although.....might just work.

    Some people already run HandleGrip Protectors 5.2 on Asian sourced machines which are an easy solution but these are made of.......plastic... Hardly the answer for a Ducati.

    Unix huh? Hmm. This can cause problems, you might find you get a lot of 404's when looking for gremlins, and be warned that Italian LAN's might have more reliabilty issues as you will be bandwith limited with such a lot of overhead (have you ever read a sentence in Italian?). Have you considered an open source solution such as freebeer 2.2.4? This might make you spend more time comtemplating the simplicity while sitting on your couch looking at it. Of course, this won't work with Wife 6.4, they tend to have contention issues when Ducatis are parked in the lounge. This seems to work just fine with OneNightStand 9.4.1, and Hotchick 6.9 - they will often allow their expansion slots or even their USB ports to be used on the bike when it's not in public.

    Another thought, with the opensource app Wheelstand v4 loaded, you won't have the contention between your bios and the AutoBraking application. Finally, there is a virus called Stoppie that seems to be doing the rounds, this might not be a problem with your AutoBraking, but HippoHands needs to be used sparingly just in case. Stoppie results in Insurance Claim patches being required, along with long explanations to Wife 6.4 to explain what you were doing on that particular URL. My advice is to delete your browsing history, and ensure that your temp drive is cleaned regularly.
