Yeah, but who wants one you have to ride side saddle (it's Canadian), not to mention that the odometer will be in km and not miles!

I'll be in Sacto tomorrow (Monday), if you need someone to help you put out the fire.

I just got back from AZ where we dropped the boy off at college. Mom's dealing, barely. But bikewise, I was resigned to a long wait. The shop here said at least some of the replacement parts were backordered till Sept. 8th, last time we talked (calipers, rotor, odds and ends). But I found a message on my phone just today that was left yesterday--Saturday afternoon. The bike's DONE! Whoopee! I don't know any details about why it's early, but what a relief. I HATE waiting!
I'll try to fill in some info about what happened soon.
And Palerider, if you want to follow me home from Roseville Yamaha with an extinguisher, just in case, that would be nice.

Great to hear the boys fixed your bike early. Perfect riding weather this week Mike. Just be sure not to be bursting any flames in the hills, we have had enough smoke for a while.
