I think the knobbies are catching most peoples eyes, I've yet to find 1 person who's seen the TV ad.

Is that the one where the studly guy rides his ArrrrghNinety through town and pulls up in front of the bar? Then he and the super-hot bartendress make goo-goo eyes at his bike?

I'm pretty sure the bartender boinks him because he has an AreNineTee. It's the only plausible outcome of the scenario presented. Unless he has a few drinks, starts to ride home, gets pulled over in a DUI roadblock, goes to jail and has to bail out, gets his bike confiscated, then hires an attorney, spends $10,000 on fees and fines, and pays 10X the standard insurance rates for the next 5 years...

that made me laugh. In my county that is the most plausible scenario. They give out yellow and red license plates for dui offenders here.. The Scarlet A. They are everywhere!

I think that's a great idea. Along with the DUI interlock ignition where you have to blow into it to start the car.

An interesting comment given your sig line.

It's internet slang for 'You cow, you'. Used in vulgar parlance when a part refuses to come off a bike easily.

Those crazy Germans just had to get a Bosch unit on the bike somewhere. That's a mini-bosch alternator with a belt under the front cover to the crank. It's all changed this year, they have somewhat moderized this motor for the other models. That round thing up top is the ABS controller.

Where's the a/c compressor mounted?

I took it out with the stock pipe for a bit more sound which made the stock muffler sound much better. Without it the Akrapovic can is a real head turner, just too loud.
Put it back in today. Just right now with a deep rumble.
