I think you'll just find out it's you, Mac. Some people just seem to produce or more prone to static electricity than others.
Oh yeah, I am sure it from my nylon womans panties

My God, Gary Busey was half a little off today BEFORE he got in a cycle accident!
That's true, but it didn't help.

You guys on here have way to good of a memory.

Mac, I tried to fill up the tank today by getting off the bike and filling from the high side. Not comfortable with that at all. Got back on the bike and finished filling.
Maybe next fill up I will try from the kickstand side.

Don't know why that would be TC. Your taller than I am. I fill on the high side since the cap it closer to the pump.

I think I just got the BBQ thing, That was about me and that dammned ash, when they burned card board in the fire pit in NY. That sucked sartin! I a u sed to getting rust flakes and saw dust chips in my eyes, but that blasted ash was a Royal Pain.

I can only wonder what's in that ash. I compost a ton of cardboard and get good garden soil of it.

I did wonder if Dave had been on the NY tour last year, and I missed knowing that. Off to read the tale of the wayward BBQ
