BTW: I was told that my aorta runs the opposite direction from normal peoples, doesn't really affect anything, just wierd

You're better than normal you're abnormal
Get well and ride again

  I cant wait to get back on 2 wheels   I've got my eye on the Duc sport classic 1000 biposto when I re-up.  not over-powered but still plenty of get up and go and just a damn gorgeous bike

So there's medical proof of what people have been saying   

Is it true that you went in for a brain scan and they found nothing 

Good to hear your getting better.

yeah these fuckin pins itch   thank god for percocet.......mmmmmm opiate induced  bliss   seriously, I've done more drugs in the last week than ever before in my life

you know all that smacking around in basic was to "teach" you something that could save your life.   The Army always has a reason for something.  Even if they dont know it yet.

[spc]

yea....... it taught me to only mouth off to people smaller than me and with less rank
seriously, I told my DS once that I wouldaa joined the air force but I was having a special ed moment, much like the majority of his life   I paid for that............... and I got the nifty nickname 'flyboy' partially because of the AF comment partially because he threw me across a room

[nastynate6695]

gotta love those moments.   it sucks for a little while   but then it gives you and your battle buddy something to laugh about on those long ruck runs.

[spc]

true we were still laughing about that during AIT

Get well soon!!!!!!!!!!!!!  I was off my bike for three months since Nov. for just a broken hand and mangled finger.  Seemed like a long time then.  It will pass, though.

Think twice about a Duc- antiquated valve system, and complicated to adjust.  Desmo valves served a purpose but we have better valve springs now.  Beautiful machines though!

Oh hell, get one.  I wish I wasn't such a cheap old bastard.  I would get one- an ST3.

those are nice machines   I just really like the lines and colors on the gt1000, very classic yet still modern

[Jay_wolf]

[spc]

Actually, you need a special tool, but they really are not that complicated to adjust... certainly easier than 4 valve per cylinder models.  The 2V bike has less valves to adjust and it is easier to get to the valve train on 2V bikes.  Not really any harder than the GS, from what I've seen from Kerry's video and the Duc video... the problem is the frequency that you need to check them 6k miles vs 12k and higher... at least compared to newer bikes like SV650, EX650, etc.  Of course, we know it's 4k with the GS!!! Of course... I won't do either myself LOL... I'd be cursing like the Father on Christmas story... LOL

SPCTerry, sorry about your accident dude... hope you are OK!
