    What is scary is someone might have thought you were serious and actually tried one, if not all, of those "suggestions". By the way I do know someone who did the armor all thing the first puddle he hit took him down and he had not even gone 5 feet as he had just washed his bike.
    Just ME and my 82 XJ 1100. Mac 4>1-2 1/2" open baffle shotgun, no octy, K&N pod filters, LED tail/brake light & directionals, 750 FD mod, Ear Cannon air horn, modified bars and dash. "Motorcyclists are all bound together by a brotherhood tie through their love of the sport, and what difference does it make what machine he rides as long as he belongs to the clan." Walter Davidson, Dec. 1920 edition of Harley-Davidson Enthusiast Magazine http://s851.photobucket.com/albums/ab78/justme1100/

      Really though, don't do any of those things...
      Your right, just to make sure it is perfectly clear in type, DO NOT DO ANY OF THOSE THINGS - THAT WAS A JOKE!!!!
