I love the fender hanging off the bow. This should be good/cringeable.

I always lusted after the 73 RS and RSR cars, but I was just picking a number out of the air. I have no idea what they’re worth.

Was at the local cars and coffee when this showed up:

There really wasn’t anything wrong with Optispark on the LT-1 after the venting update. What screwed them up was the camshaft-driven water pump seal failing over time and leaking directly on the Optispark unit below. The fix was to crazy-glue an elbow into the pump shaft seal weep hole and attach a hose to route the

For the nine millionth time, it’s not the “back seat”. It’s the “way back”, as in “I tap the way back”.

I’ve had the CHP looking directly at me while doing this exact thing. Zilch. They have more important matters to deal with plus they know this improves lane split safety by granting the bike that little extra room. 

Back in 1952 crazy Howard Hughes had this enormous tip-burner idea:

Visited multiple dealers whilst shopping for a V-Rod Muscle. One salesman was incredulous that I was fixated on a V-Rod and asked if I was aware of how they sounded. Started the bike just to prove a point.

Exactly. This is just a shitty V-Rod wannabe.

Like duh.

How are those 718 Cayman/Boxster sales doing?

You’re thinking of the XC-142 possibly?

Hey, this is what he’s referring to as “wedgey”:

Yeah, but it’s ugly.

Yup. Okay, so now where is that deicing circuit switch lead?

I disagree. Watch some of the high-end assembly line videos in Germany. Fewer humans are ending up being pushed farther and farther down the line as robots take over an increasing share of assembly. First it was welding, then paint, and now doors, glass and interior.

You think car people are bad?  Try motorcycles.  God forbid you ride a Harley Davidson product.

Obviously you’re not familiar with MB’s Speedshift MCT. Automatic with a wet clutch.

One prototype that did go nuclear was the N.S. Savannah.
