    Pivoting doesn't do it for me.....I thought that was how so many people ended up twisted (and bitter?) and unable to extract knee from fairing to get it near the floor. I guess it's just the language he uses...but how does one pivot the hips one way and point with the shoulder the other way without the aid of a chiropractor?

    WKID, try going round roundabouts till it touches down...or you get arrested

    Can touch it down  - it just doesn't feel as natural as the left hand side - weird - it was actually the right I got down first........

    750, would it help if a bunch of us went past your place at these times at full noise so you could get feign a glazed look on the eyes, walk out in a daze and claim you had to go ride because it was the Call of the Wild??

    That would be a little elbow down action too, wouldn't it Dave?

    Dave. So why do you have to reach for the remote? Doesn't someone bring it to you? And why don't you have the remote with you in the first place?

    Knee,elbow then face,depends how many beers i've had. (kinda like riding a bike)
    Your right though, I'd better get more control over the remote.
    I've been thinking about the chips they implant into dogs now and wondering if i could get a remote implanted.
    Luv it!
