So let me get this straight. ZG... The master of C14 customization sold his C14 for a KTM thingy? Wow.... That's depressing. HA! As others have said where will we get our inspiration from???? I can't even benefit from any left over farkle sales as I have a Gen 2. Oh well... When you start your customized magic on that KTM what ever it is you better be back to post some pics! We need inspiration! Best of luck ZG.

If I recall correctly, Festivus starts out with the "airing of grievences", and is later followed by the "feats of strength" which is pretty much what happened on that thread, except there was only one feat of strength (the sword) ;).

doesn't everyone do Festivus? we do.... its a pole... made out of aluminum..... very high strength to weight ratio....

So yeah, exactly where did he go? I know he went over to the orange side of the force, but it doesn't seem like he sticks to any one color very long. I've checked on various KTM forums and even with an assumed name change I can't find him.

Gumby?..got an update for us??...or give Jay a poke and ask him to stop in and give us an update.

No, I'm just curious what's up with him. After so many posts on both forums, his departure left sort of a vacuum that is only emphasized by the reduced posting by Brian. Of course building a second floor on ones house would sort of bring the post rate down a bit.
Thanks though.

I should look into that.   :)

That was quick. Wonder what he didn't like about the Duke. Was hoping to see it is different colors. But maybe now we get to see a wing change colors.

He bought a GoldWing???  He seems to be having an identity crisis or something!

It'll be fun to watch the farkling, however the bar has been set pretty high. Jay can get there if anyone can.

That's all automatically incorporated into the avionics GPS system, although a backup analog display gauge would be advised.
This street bike thing is all new to me.

Do you have to be instrument rated to ride that thing? I'm only VRR rated.

Somewhere I think he did a post where he ran it all down switch by switch. IIRC, I thought there were a lot of unnecessary switches to turn stuff off that went off anyway when the the bike was powered down. edit I do think there was actually a stand alone altimeter (that wasn't incorporated in one of the GPS units). What I really liked was the FLIR unit. I just know Jay will find a way to get one.  :D

edit: found it----> Part 1.   http://gl1800riders.com/forums/2100371-post85.html
                            Part 2.  http://gl1800riders.com/forums/2100398-post90.html
Yep, in the farkling department, Jay has moved up in with the big boys now. It'll be interesting to see if he can show them a few tricks.  :D

Somehow, it feels like MoB's post about ZG and the Wing was in jest. I could be wrong since the rest of you seem to think it's true.  :nuts:

I'm pretty sure it's true, as I recognize his garage in the photo, and just in case you think it's a friend of Jay's temporarily parked in his garage, there is this: http://forum.cog-online.org/index.php?topic=67128.0

Not that it's a bad idea to be a little skeptical about the internet.  :-\  :thumbs:

I really enjoyed Rev's take on it:   :rotflmao:

No, its true.... I wouldn't lie about that, he's a pal...
And it was on the COG site, which he returned to and made some posts, also there is a link to the dealer he traded his KoolAid bike to, where it sits now for sale....
I think the major reason was he has come to the point where he wants his wife to ride with him more, and pretty much its a great reason...

Wanting your wife to ride with one is understandable. I love having my wife ride with me but she cramps my style. When she rides if I don't stay within the speed limit I 'hear' about it over the intercom or from the back of my helmet.  :o
