->  Well, how do, Wayne?

A bit rough tonight but can't complain as I've just had a few relatively
easy days that are quite rare of late.

The only real super performance ride I had was the 1100 superbike
which I'd planned to detune replacing the 4 into 1 with stock pipes for
cornering clearance and rejetting down 1 notch for beter fuel

I think i could have squeaked by with a mere 110 H.P. on a 536 LB
motorcycle rather than the 120 that monster had.
