I guess the newbee needs to do more research on the other important issues on this forum. like fingerless gloves, assless chaps, do-rags, synthetic oil, and last but not least, nitrogen in tires. of course I've probably missed a few, but I'm sure everyone will help him catch up. In the mean time I'm headed for more popcorn!
