I've never been in the CVO stratosphere so I didn't know that. I'm trying to work my way up to a Russian farm tractor type vehicle.

For that Russian tractor feel, go start any HD you have and put it into first gear, that clunk should bring you closer to Putin.

Dr appt yesterday was fine. She told me "You're ugly and your short term memory is failing" I said "At least I'm not ugly" In all seriousness, potassium & sodium are a bit low, but nothing to worry about.

Back to the grind, the work awaiteth.

Good to hear! I take this every day to get more sodium and potassium. https://drinklmnt.com/

I thought that clunk was a signal to tell you were in gear....

I know this is hard to believe, but a Harley shifts smooth and quiet compared to a Ural. If you shift a Ural slowly it grinds like trying to put a '56 Chevy into first while it's rolling; a firm stomp is required to avoid grinding, and that makes a thump the Harley rider behind you can hear. Wait, I got that wrong, the Harley rider passing, because my Ural does 0-58 in 27 seconds with a tailwind.
