Thank you for the updated user reports. When it comes time to replace my battery, I think I'll look at the same one.

Happy Birthday Steve!

Happy Birthday Michelle! My wife turns 50 today and she gets a new motorcycle. There, top that, Omar. :hide:

Aeronautical engineer for 34 years with a large airplane manufacturer. I'm one of the goofballs that design the things that Troy breaks and that Jim, Matt and others fix.

:rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl::rofl: I love this place. You folks crack me up every time.

I presume that's why you have all that pink stuff attached to your posts. :rofl:

57 here and I hope I have MANY MANY more years of riding in me. I'm about to retire and then I plan to really pack on the miles.

I agree with Michelle. There's never enough room. We have a standard attached two car garage for our daily drivers. Then my detached "garage" houses three airplanes, three motorcycles, and another car. It also has a large separate shop with a bathroom. It's still not enough sometimes.

My last bike before the Busa was a 1982 Honda CB900F that I bought new. Love that bike and I still have it though it needs a lot of work. I feel that it prepared me for the Busa since the weight and riding position was similar. The Busa just has twice the HP. :laugh:

I named mine Ilse. Don't ask, you'd never figure out why and I'd never reveal it. No it's not anyone I've known.

The PC-12 is a really nice ride. Almost as great as a Busa. Good luck tomorrow. Sounds like you're on to something good.

Very well said and I completely agree.

My 2011 does this as well. Mine does it a lot sooner than 5 seconds. More like 1 or 2 seconds after start. I figured it is just the cold oil in the pump dragging the engine down until it warms just a bit. I remember trying to turn a car's oil pump by hand and could not turn it very fast...

I was kind of half kidding about the whiskey. Definitely not kidding about the melatonin. That stuff does work great and like skydivr says, it does not leave you drowsy in the morning.

My wife rear-ended me once. Fortunately, we were both in cages. My 1967 Cougar didn't get a scratch but her 1974 Mazda RX-4 got bent up pretty bad. Fender into the tire and all that. She gets out of her car and starts yelling at me and hitting me like it was my fault. Funny as hell. I'm...
