I saw them walk by headed for my neighbors.
So I went inside quick for the camera and brought it out to the shop.
When they walked by again I waved, cause I wanteda shot of the redheaded missionary.
The bigger lady hollered over that they were gonna pass me by
cause their pamphlets were in spanish. I waved her over,
then had to get her to call the redhead over.
I asked them to say a prayer for the sickle, and I think they did.
I couldn't understand a word, they both had one eye on me
and one on the stripped down machine.
Then I already had the tripod set up, and told them I wanted a picture.
They were very reluctant to pose, and asked why a couple times.
I told the lady I was real interested in Texas history,
and being as how tomorrow is the 172nd anniversary
of the signing of the Texas Declaration of Independence
there at Washington on the Brazos in 1836.
And to honor the late great TexiCans,
I would like to get a picture of the bleeding Jesus
with his Crown of Thorns.
I guess I confused her enough to go for it.
I was behind the camera til she held up the pamphlet,
and they both jumped when I moved over to get in the shot.
Had to repose them and then got the shot.

I put these on my SuperGlide quite a while before the recall.

Damn Mud those were pretty bad. Funny pic with the JWs though. What bars are you gonna put on now?

Dan, they were just hairlines that I had been keeping an eye on
for a couple thousand miles.
Then a couple weeks ago I rode into a mudpuddle that I didn't spot.
Only moving at 5-10 MPH, when the machine went down,
the throttle end of the bars hit the ground,
racking the hairlines wide open.
If you look, you can see the slight twisting as well.
Anyway, the lower part of the pic shows the after recall cutout
on the replacement bars.
They also changed the configuration at the grips. (second pic)
Early design is on the top

But, you're not far off -
What you see in the picture is a Black Cat bone,
camouflaged as a Canon Rebel remote control shutter trigger.

Brian, I had to work hard for that picture.

RE: a prayer for my SuperGlide
Hey Battersby, I love the AC you did for me thanks, and BTW if you still need them I think I have my OE bars from 07 SB. You're welcome to have them. Let me know and I'll look around for them. Free is better than $100 anytime!
