That shiny skin does make it look like it would go at least 300 kts.

Looks very nice Stoopy.

You're absolutely correct 1Bullet, quite insensitive of me to put it that way, where are my manners. The situation simply served to build additional character, a thought that was not lost on me while I busied myself with a 5mm Allen wrench and a pair of the world's thinnest and cheapest stamped-steel pair of pliers from my bike's toolkit as robust splotches of Virginia mud splattered from the ground up into my face...
So here's to mud in your eye, pod'ner....and soon!

The "Boss Hawg" has gotten a little soft in his old age (then again, not sayin' I haven't either). Ascout's first Super Glide went without a front fender for it's first year back in '76. Ride a road bike in the rain like that for a while...it's like all the June Bugs in the world hitting you in the face at highway speeds. Outlaw scarves necessary. Thankfully, I haven't had to do that in, oh, about 35 years.

Hah! See? It worked!!!!!
Actually I enjoy riding in the rain....there's a solitude and concentration factor to it that makes one feel even more in "the zone". My only rule of thumb is I don't like to ride to work in a downpour, since it's no fun starting your day off in the office all wet. On the way home, it's a nice way to get an impromptu bath. But then again I have the luxury of decent and modern gear. And ABS brakes.
Performing a surprise field mod / repair to a questionably-designed and broken bracket that is used to attach another component that is way too large and rounded to bungee-cord to the bike, in the rain, while stranded on the side of an empty dirt road in the middle of nowhere with the faint sound of banjo music far off in the woods... well... slightly different story (but still not gonna complain about it, at least the dampness bit).
But it's a whole 'nother story anyway and I'm glad the Great State of Texas got some small reprieve, it's a start!

I can personally attest that the final version of Richard's excellent livery ins indeed quite a show-stopper...nice work Fr8ycat!!!
All other liveries have been tweaked, touched-up and mucked with, and the "EZ-file" self-installer is in the process of the first build & test as we speak, the whole schmiel should be uploaded and available later sometime today!
If you downloaded and installed the previous set of liveries, you'll want this update too, for sure, as some of the paints are significantly changed.
Thanks fer yer patience....
