Hey dammit! :evil: Mine has character...and it runs...for now at least. :-)

I noticed Will's ODO actually had 6 digits...so they guys in Hinckley building them are at least an optimistic bunch. Mine just displays the actual miles (no leading zeros), so I assume it goes to infinity...and beyond.

What color was it? Had it been a red one with Doppler Shift Effect going on, you didn't even need a key, or electronics.

Had a friend (yes, one), who bought a used-up MG Midget right out of high school. It was possessed electrically.

Yeah, but mine has seen many more fun roads, and better tracks than yours has. :))

You have had your bike longer than Fixxer has had his 750...he had that ugly katana first.

Exactly. He had that when he first started riding with the club. When did you get the triumph?

Obviously, miles cannot do math. I got what you were saying. Miles, you're a little slow...
