I would have, but they only come in a 12" version. I specifically wanted 13". I asked and was going to have that from the dealer as an incentive.

Morning Russ and Jack. Heading out on the old BMW to a tech day in Portland. Traffic has been brutal lately, so I hope I don't get stuck in that.

Chris, is there any concern that the pipe will blow contaminants on your rear brake rotor?

You could attach a baseball card ( or some other piece of cardboard) to the non-braking surface, and test .

Pfffffftttttttttt.......Chris don't need rear brakes.....

Rode the Shovel yesterday, rode Pearl over to Red River Harley to pick up a couple of small items that fit in my vest, since Pearl don't carry things anymore....

2 dudes and a chick were walking in and the dudes were pretending to ignore me, and the chick was phucking staring at Pearl....

Then I talk to Cool Hand Luke and he is in Burk and his Mom asked if I wanted him to come over and stay till next Friday....

I said sure, that'll be fine.....
