Yes! The Brotherhood of the K strikes again! Thank you Scud-man, PM sent.
Lets hear it for Scud, not only did he save me from slashing my wrists after riding over 200 miles today looking in ditches, he saved Mighty Gyphon from certain violence and robbery! You can sleep easy now Gyphon.

Scud man, Please accept my sincere gratitude!  :clap: 

You have saved me from the need to dispose of Ace's mangled remains.  However, the dogs are disappointed and may I say a bit hungry.  Looks like we'll need to break out the puppy chow.

You guys crack me up.

I'm sending you a side panel that managed to stay on for 180,000 miles. It's got good mojo.

Probably fall off after he paints it on first ride.  Bad juju is bad juju.  Need the juju man to remove the curse.

Never had a problem with it until last week when the curse was thrown at Yella Dog, now who can I get with enough mojo to remove the juju?

I think all the stuff from my parts bike has good mojo. 180,000 miles can repel Old-Yeller curses. It's a California part though, so it's used to significant elevation changes. You're gonna have to take it out of Florida to get over 1,000 feet elevation.

I hear you......we got one hill in Washington County that's 983 ft. above sea level; that is close enough! Thanks, Scud, for bailing me out of the dreaded Yankee curse.
