    Wait, maybe this was genius.

    Offer a bike ride to get her wet. Take her out in the rain and REALLY get her wet. Manage to get her back safe... offer comfort.



    As you were...

    Phil, loctite your shirt. The A-Rab guy was making joke.

    Gas guages are full of shit.

    Learned that the hard way with my then day old VFR1200 on the way to work. 592 Lbs plus luggage is a bitch to try and push.

    also if your going to wear a one pc on the street, take a shit before hand, and take one more before you leave the house. Its awkard to take a dump in a 1 pc. unfortuntly this has happened to me way to many times.

    If you ever find yourself pushing your Yamaha through a gas station on your way to a dealership because of faulty start button contacts and some doucher wanna be 1%-er Harley rider is at said gas station and gives you a shit-eating grin as you push your foreign-made motorcycle past him, the words "I'd rather be pushing this than riding that" must be spoken.

    It's less awkward if you take the dump outside of the 1 pc.
