You are probably right, but I think most of the evo forum members would at least stop and try to get them running and be nice at the same time, even if we knew that it was one of the smart a## poser posters. Some things would baffle me/us (efi or some electrical) and be beyond roadside repair but the basic mechanical issues are the same on all years and trouble shooting is just that.....I have however been known to break things that aren't so some may not want me working on their ride,

LOL, if you want a real interesting name, or three, try posting anything in the Political and Open Discussion section that the mob disagrees with.
Speech seems to be the one freedom that is not being globally exported.

thank you for the complement.
but here's the thing I don't get they rag on me because I've been riding mostly my chopper this past summer. but I own 2 twinkies, 3 evos, 2 shovels, 1 Honda, and 1 Suzuki and I have had seat time on all but 2 of them this year. so if im such a hater of twinkie riders why would I own and ride them.
