I know you don't go on there.......but you'd be amazed the number of people who now live their lives on Facebook. Completely addicted.......and anything they see on there is true as far as they're concerned.2 points

I must admit once the government removed legal responsibility I didn't want one either. I'll bet there'll be many after effects in the years to come.2 points

My boss was telling me yesterday that more people have died from the vaccines than C19. He's been a "not having any injection whatever the make" all through this. Don't know where he's getting his info from but it's obviously not a reliable source. I think many forget these vaccines only help the body deal with the virus so less of us die from it. There was also talk of getting the second dose faster but I've had no contact, still mid June for my second.2 points

on the news here this morning, a number of french youtube "influencers" have been approached or cantacted by an organisation proposing to pay them significant sums of money in order to put out videos suggesting that more people have died from the Pfizer vaccine than from Astra Zeneca. The youtubers in question ( or at least a couple of them) reported this to the police when the contact insisted that they must not mention the fact that the video was sponsored and the sponsor wished to remain anonymous... the contacts have been traced to a russian ad agency. I have absolutely no way, of course, of knowing wether any of this is any more true than the continual stream of mindless unfounded and unsubstantiated drivel that is available on social media. The only difference being that this was reported on France Info which is usually fairly reliable ( ie it's not BFM TV or Fox News for example)1 point

I'm not aware of any after effects from things like the polio, smallpox, diptheria, MMR jabs that most people had as children......so why would this be different?1 point

On the Bmw you have two seat options, and you can then adjust each in a high or low position independently in the front and rear part of the rider’s seat1 point

Maybe two positions and three seat options?1 point

Finally got there! Took'em long enough. Funny, but I have yet to see the HD Adventure bike - which was what I started going to the HD places for in the first place. Oh well, Buckster got a cool shirt out of it.1 point

It's confirmed now? I never bought into that theory that it came from those live markets.1 point

I like my cigars and I like good whisky and my motorcycle. I also like my own company which means I can afford all three.1 point

So, made it down to Lake Elsinore on Saturday. My appt was for Sunday, but a friend had his for Sat afternoon and then wanted to go play in the hills afterwards. Riding the twisty's sounded like fun so i blasted down after breakfast, showing up at the test area just after 1. There was a pretty good setup going. As is almost always the case, there were more reservations made than ridres showed, so i actually got to ride one, instead of waiting until Sunday a.m. This dovetailed nicely into our weekend plans, so off i went after a quick course on how the bike worked. I chose a "special" model (the one with auto-lowering, crash bars, extra riding modes, etc.). The only rules were to leave in RAIN mode, until familiar with the bike and return it unscathed. They had a long, if not boring route around the lake. Probably a good 15 miles, i would say. All town riding, but it did have some long stretches with no stops. Half a block out of the staging area, i hit SPORT mode, and man, what an engine! Very peppy response, firm suspension! Fun to play with. The only thing that bothered me (strong word, as it wasnt that bad( was a little throttle lag when shifting. I think that would go away the more you got familiar with the bike. The bike was comfortable enough on the streets. Mirrors seems a mite small, tho. Ergos were good for a 32-inch inseam. The lowering was interesting and should prove very popular for the shorter legged, or when offroad. After returning, i saw my buddy talking to one of the GS Giant friends, who was overseeing the offroad section. Well, it wasnt paved, but it wasnt really offroad. I guess HD lawyers are just as anal as BMW ones. I understand from our friend that it was quite the battle to just get permission to take the bikes into a level gravel area for some "testing". One bike at a time on the course was the rule. If you dropped the bike, you were done. Speed limit was 25mph, but there was no radar to keep you honest. So, wink, wink. When it was my turn, i took off on the slow slalom, getting used to the feel in loose stuff. Then came easy 180s, followed by a circle test. Did both sets of tests sitting and then standing. Bike was good at maintaining speed by clutching. Power felt good, not as low end as the GS, but not bad. The interesting test was the acceleration and braking, using the offroad ABS for hard braking. Very impressive as the bike slid to a controlled, straight stop. All in all, i think Harley has a winner with this bike. Consider is an SUV and you will see what the market and use should/will be. Meaning, hauling your crap long distances so that you can get dirty. I'm just hoping that they get their converts from their own base, as well as those who have been dual-sporting/adv-ing all along. Case in point - amongst all the bikes that were there, waiting to ride, most were dual sports, with only one HD bike. Not sure if that was someone test riding, or an employee, tho. Now, to sit down and figure out if i need 7 bikes............. (p.s., the HD Branded Revit gear is really good looking and looks long wearing!)1 point
