  1. If your Saturday afternoon include the words from the TV " Mutual of Omaha presents..." you were a kid in the 70's. This was a TV show linda like National Geographic channel.

    Remember the Mr. Quaterback football launcher? Pretty much a heavy spring loaded catapult that would launch a football.

  2. Not exactly the same, but I had a 1990 Katana 600 for about 4 years. It was carbed, and heavy ( compared to the newer bikes). I enjoyed riding it.

    It is kinda cool that these 20 year old plus bike still run and look great.

    Kinda like a motorcycle time capsule.

    2009 was a rough year money wise for me or else I would still own it.

    Sold to another member on OR in early 2010. Actually it was one of the pics that appeared on the OR home page when i signed on after dinner today.

  3. i am sure other people that actually race can add more detail, but an air shifter will allow you to shift gears with out using your foot. There is a air cylinder connected to the shifter lever.

    Another way with the quick shifter, just shift the gears with your foot. There is a sensor that detects you are shifting a does something to control engine power to allow a wide open throttle shift

  4. Not trying to start anything, but could there other factors like PCV valve system and overall engine and engine bay designs that may create a difference in "less internal buildup"? A better comparison would be same type of vehicle and same engine. One with conventional oil and one with synthetic?

    Now back to the female zombie link from the other thread......
