I don't recall anyone not getting home just fine. It was just a scare!

Waiting for someone to give you know who the credit for the weather that he deserves. I will remind you what happened last TWO time these two 's went on trips without you know who.

Odd, with cold air being heavier and you being closer to the ground I would have thought you would get colder way faster than @tall_tracy

Plenty of insulation, as evidenced by our super low gas bills. Nice and warm at my house, tyvm.

Timed that pretty good. http://www.citizen-times.com/story/news/local/2017/10/30/blue-ridge-parkway-closed-sections-due-snow-and-ice/812597001/

People are just now turning on their heaters? F' that, life is too short to spend it freezing.

Have not had a birthday thread here in a few years, so I think I waited long enough to answer that question.

Each app will let you turn them off for that app, but yes Android apps do pop them a lot. You will learn quickly how to turn them off. 8 is nice, you can long press any notification and block it that way too.

Well Joe, I think you need to take it back. It would appear Sammy put the cheese between the lettuce and the tomato. That is unacceptable.

Road it 40 miles at 37 degrees with no heated great to the dealer.

Updated to Android 8.1 yesterday, it is really spiffy.

Never used a screen protector, never had a problem.

Yea, I have not looked at it to see if where or if it disconnects from the main. I suspect not. But that is Kawi's problem not mine. My main concern is what was the underlying problem that caused it. That connector was always marginal, I cleaned it twice a year. I suspect it got worse and overheated and that it will be fine. But who knows.

Washed mine last night. Dropping it at the dealer Saturday. Don't expect to get it back in time to ride again.

No, he would have had to pay for the pic if he got it there.

Might just be a photo he got from Google.

He and I don't talk much anymore, he stopped liking me.

That's all you got? Grammar typo Nazi crap. That's weak, even for you.

Old people don't like change.

After the venture test ride I test road the old Wing. I would not buy the older version. It just wasn't awesome enough.

Oh, and for what it costs I can buy the new Gold Wing. Which is exactly what I expect I will be doing.

Keep in mind as you read this that I went way out of my way to do the demo ride, because on paper I was in love with this bike and was totally going to buy one. It is a steaming pile of poo. It was low 90's when I road it and it burnt my leg. Not hot, it burnt it. My leg hurt from the heat for an hour after I rode it. And I am used to that, Kawi is not exactly awesome when it comes to heat control. RPM range is WAY too small. If you jump on it at a light you have to shift once in the intersection, and then once again as you clear the intersection. If you don't it hits the rev limiter at 4200. I was bouncing off it the entire ride. As you ride it and speed goes up and down you have to shift, and shift and shift and shift and shift and shift and shift. Jesus it sucked. Windshield is bullshit. All the way up, or all the way down. Retards. It sounds like a Harley. Not loud, but they are certainly going for that rumble annoying exhaust. And yes, it pops like a Mofo on decel. Retards. For me, it did not look as awesome in person as it did in the pics. It looked kind of crappy if you ask me but that is personal choice. Ride comfort and ergonomics were excellent. It fit me perfectly and road like a dream. Controls and electronics and farkles were awesome. Passenger comfort was also outstanding. Every test rider I talked to hated it, both in the group before me and in my group. They had like four in each group.

I use "as useful @Casper" for that.
