Or a really "special" date with Bust.

 
Great thread. Just ordered a Slime compressor and patch kit to add to my stash.

+1 on having a little bit of cash in there. One day I left the house to quickly return a DVD. Was nice out so I continued on up to the lake. That was a nice ride so I rode out into the country. It was at the point that my low fuel light came on 80 miles from the house that I realized I never grabbed my wallet on the way out to the video store. I literally had to pan-handle for a couple of gallons of gas at the Texaco. Very demoralizing!

Brilliant!! Just a small spelling mistake. I believe it was a "Rooshin" phrase book.

I don't know about where you live, but that's how the word "Russian" is pronounced 'round heah.

:lol: :lol: :lol: On the way down to Big Sur a couple weeks back, I had a guy walk up at the gas pump with a sad story about how he left his wallet on his parents' dresser that morning after he passed through, and could I lend him money for gas? Since he was wearing a thousand dollar CyclePort suit, I thought he might be good for it, so I agreed (hey, I might have anyway). He'd parked his bike at the gas station across the street and when he pulled up, he was riding an FJR! Turned out he was on the forum, too. To protect the innocent, I'm not saying who it was--anyway he sent the dough as promised. Nice, about the brotherhood of the forum--or riders in general, though. (So was it a rider who helped you out?)

I only approached other bikes. I offered to mail anyone a check for $20 if they put 2 gallons in. A guy on a Kawa just said "Dude, fill it up and pass on the good will" I put 2 gallons in and regained my faith in humanity. He refused to give me an address to mail a check. Pretty cool!

PCIII, nothing else. With a Corbin Smuggler and 2 side bags, I don't need to dick with under seat storage.
