The trouble with forums is.... ah .... it.  Meet up then either knock eachother down or hug it out.  One of these will happen.  If you're not ....... (and I don't think either of you are, as I've met both) then you will do one or the other...  When I met Rog, it did for a small moment cross my mind that he might not like me and then crush me.  Once I met up, within minutes I understood I was 10x faster (and as much smarter) despite being 10x smaller than Rog, I knew I could out run him if the occasion called for it.


 


Zoots the only person that I have ever felt was a real life .... (SS is probably really just 12).  But even him I would meet up with.  I would meet up with BM, but I can't afford the flight and the compensations he demands, not to mention the risk to everybody I would impose by having him absent from his important work at NORAD.


Zoot... was an interesting contributor to PS. I plead guilty back then to getting all territorial and in his face - and I confess I regret it 'cause he was an interesting character. Regardless of how "in-yer-face" he could be, he really did have a wealth of info. Too bad he didn't stick around.

Fair enough.

Truth be told I was driving thru NYC last summer transitioning from La Guardia to PA. I spent a few hours driving thru the city looking very much like your typical tourist. Mouth wide open, eyes to the sky. One of the 1st things I did was look up the address of Keshav Music. I was traveling down Broadway towards Battery park. I saw your shop was centrally located and a bit out of the way. I thought about popping in but quickly realized parking in the city was nonexistent.

Maybe another time. Like I said many times before this silly forum is just fun and games. I hold no grudges and would be more then happy to meet up with anyone other than Willski


......' Wilski!

Well then, we absolutely disagree.  He was/is a .....  And I suspect after BJC reads this, he will suddenly appear.

You see that picture above. Thats an actual picture of a bike I once owned.


 


Next, I want to see the awesome 1988-era riding gear.


 


Maybe you and Keshav can compare and contrast 80's sunglasses? 


 


My aesthetically challenged gear is from the early 90's, so features lovely fluoro Dainese logos and panels...the one-piece still fits me though.

Mayhaps my perspective has mellowed since his departure. He was never ....... to me - so he didn't push my buttons the way he seemed to do with others. I kinda got the feeling he was being a territorial male trying to carve out a space on PS which is jammed full of Alpha Males and that in time he might have mellowed out.

You see that picture above. Thats an actual picture of a bike I once owned. The picture was taken approximately around 1988. Right around the time you were beating Lawson for the championship. I know its hard to believe cameras were in existence way back then but I was one of the lucky few that owned one. Most people that owned one of these newfangled contraptions used them to take photos of hobbies they are passionate about such as motorcycles. It stands to reason that someone who buys and sells hundreds of motorcycles would have pictures not only out of personal reasons but also for selling purposes. Now I know digital cameras have only been out for about 13 years now so I could maybe buy your excuse that you didnt have a record of the thousands of bikes you bought before the year 2000 but you must have digital files from at least 10 years ( or 10000 bikes)


 


All very interesting, but which one can you reach on the keyboard? Without standing on a box, obviously. That would be cheating.


 


I have plenty of pics of bikes, my own and others. Why, do you have a fetish for them or something? What I don't have is pics of me racing - for the simple reason it's bloody hard to take a picture while riding. Maybe my wife has some, she was around at the time. I know she has some clippings from AMCN and the local papers. Probably something in Motocourse as well, if you look back far enough.


 


Now how about you go back to playing with your Shake Weight. It won't make you any taller, but it might give you something to hold that tiny ..... of yours with when it gets all slippery.

JK uses pettifogging at a 5th grade level 


 


It's because he can still pass for a 5th grader...


 


He'd have trouble riding my bike, though. I bought it off another shortearse who couldn't pick it up when it fell over.

My son's got it in his garage in the UK for when I go over. It is certainly more fun than the ....... Cub, but then being a stepthrough, at least JK wouldn't have to worry about falling over at the lights.

He's my neighbour - travels a lot.

I was cool with you barry jay but if you think there's a cooler bike around than the cub you are seriously deluded
 
Some ruminations going on here...


Maybe we should open a new thread, like: What's Wrong with Powersliders?


Doubt the "problem", whatever it is, can easily be fixed though... (just like Ducati, uh?!) ;)

Ahhh short jokes. Those are always funny. Good one buddy. Im 5'6". . Problem is I make fun of myself all the time for being short so its not like your insulting me. Ive always been small and its always served me well. Im infinitely more agile then those taller then me. I dont and wont have the back, knee and gut problems most people have. My ticker wont expire at 60 because it cant support my body mass anymore. How many big old people do you see? You dont because their laying down 6' below you. I own stand up jet skis and ride circles around teenagers on the lake. I have an open invitation to anyone around my age to ride my skis. No takers so far. That because there all too, tall, too fat, and too uncoordinated to succeed like yourself. Those street bikes that your mocking me with have been designed with me in mind. Lets go for a 2 hour jaunt on liter bikes. Guess whos going to get off cramped and sore. Not me. So please continue with the short jokes because your only complimenting me.

You forgot to tell us how humble and self-depreciating you are.
 
Ducati are to offer a production version of their GP13 to teams next year along with Honda, If the full factory version with Dovi on it can't beat a CRT why would anyone buy one? made me laugh.
