    I saw a photo of the bike after it was washed. I was surprised to see the fender and brake lines were not damaged.:eek1

    Both he and the recovery quad found an underground spring.

    I think they struck oil :rofl

    That's why the magazines don't like us.. there are no owner blogs dedicated to 'character'.. no long threads further exploring this 'character' and its associated 'features' ... there's nothing to write about! And we are not allowed to discuss cameras either. This is not a fair world I tell you.

    And Tuesday I'm going to EICMA in Milan, I'm hoping Yamaha will show the new adventure bike with the three cilinder engine.
    I tested the MT09 with this engine a week ago and was really impressed. Awesome!! :clap

    If they don't build this bike I'm going to buy this engine and fix it in the 660 frame :deal

    Hmm, I don't know about the unmolested part. Those lights look like a form of molestation to me. :rofl
