        Congrats,
        At first I thought you were a fluffer
        But as time wore on I saw that you are pretty humble and with some good info.
        Glad your here

          Don, Congrats! man you and Doug are posting machines, 6 months?! come on, I've been putzing around here for almost 4 years and I'm not quite half way there as yet. I'll keep telling myself that "the wise man listens whilest the fool chatters" yeah, that's the ticket, I guess I just don't have that much to say...type, now verbal communication, I'd have about everybody beat there, I belong to that support group for people who talk too much...it's called on and on and on seriously though, congrats on the guru status! have a nice day and ride safe

                And to think, just a few days ago I was in a local garage with TWO almost Guru's tunning my bike. It's almost an honor! Really though, I take back the almost part. Don and Doug are great guys who know what their doing (with XS's anyway).
                I know this, because Tyler knows this.

                  I'd like to thank my mother and father for bringing to the earth and my agent and.............ok...I will refrain from the on and on and on and onanon version!!

                  I would seriously thank all of the great minds who have shared their knowledge freely and frequently to protect me from me and sometimes others from me. I've said it before and it is worth repeating, this is hands down the BEST tech site of its kind anywhere I have ever seen, surfed, or joined!! I am humbled to be called a Guru compared to the many here.

                  I am not sure how the heck I got here in six months, I can only say that I have plenty to learn yet from many who frequent the forum, Guru status or not. Numbers are just that, kind of like age, just a number. Thanks to all for the kind words and again for the education and support to allow me to ride an AWESOME XS11 that now purrs and growls on command!
                  Life is what happens while your planning everything else!

                  When your work speaks for itself, don't interrupt.
