Re: Added the most expensive custom accessory ever!

Sorry, that's not the manual but the index for the soon to be released manual. My local library was supposed to get one but they canceled their order in fear of loud talking and riots.

At 17 years I figured a 300+ point inspection was in order this weekend. Glad to report that everything is tip top and in above optimum working order. Regardless of knowing the true function of said accessory, it sure does look nice and draws plenty of attention. There was a mishap with some wax but nothing seems permanently damaged, I'll know more in a few weeks, months, or possibly years.

Re: Added the most expensive custom accessory ever!

For some reason I was hoping SF would win---sadly I fell asleep just after the 5th inning, only learned of the outcome this morning.

Great pic!
Offended? No way! I'm actually pretty impressed you guys have managed to keep it up for so long...

I must be behind on my metaphors - what the heck is wax supposed to mean???
Uh, on the other hand, I don't think I want to know.

Completely entertained!

Mine was the best accessory ever installed. However I often find myself looking at the newer models!

^^^ i totally agree.

when my wife first started hanging out on our local motorsports forum it felt like george castanzas line from seinfield where he said his worlds were colliding, but ended up being a lot of fun having a ladies take on stuff. eventually she got sick of the leg humping (something most every woman gets to endure from a mainly male oriented forum) and stopped hanging out, but it was fun for a while.
