And I can't wait for it to get here. ordered the Two Bro's Titanium M-2 (http://piratesk12site.net/2brosGT.htm) from Pirates. here (.http://www.twobros.com/cgi-bin/shopper?search=action&keywords=bmw_k1200gt_06&searchstart=0&template=Templates/TBRSearchResult-Simple-BMW-K1200GT_SO_06.html) is their actual website with instructions, etc. (almost had a kitten when I saw the Power Commander, but it's for the old gen). This muffler drops 17 lbs of weight, which is purdy close to a good dump. And, it should be nice and quiet. Being smaller, I wonder if it will have to be dropped to remove the rear tire?

And speaking of tires, ordered some more P2's as mine should just about be done with the Big Bend trip at the end of the month.

Don't you just love the internet on an early Sunday morn?

Hey - after I git ole Toad outta OR, don't you think it's about time for a Hooter's fix --- I owe you a din-din, btw. Love to hear what your new can sounds, and looks like. That analogy to a 'good dump' fits right in with the morning constitution, huh?

BTW - did Sandy pass me the other day? We had ole Toad on the trailer, goin' under 1604 and headin' to Hank's place, and this leetle silver Z4 flew by in 9th gear - in a hurry to git to work, I guess!!! :rolleyes: :histerica j/k

For the last month one of us has been hauling ass somewhere. The leaving when it's dark, I found the optimal leave time to be 5 ayem, and getting home when it's dark really sucks!!! I hate sitting in traffic. We talked about moving the whole shittaree to our side of the world, but then there'd be 12 folks suffering instead of two. Whataya gonna do?

Nice, Grif. The non-shiny ones rock!This one rocked too much. I put about 60 miles on it and took it off. Something to be said about stealth.

I might be the SOUND of Hillary's voice that is driving you to the ultra-conservative side. It has been described as a shovel scraping a rock.

Grif! You are much more persuasive than I am. My wife told me that if I wanted to cut my riding weight I should go on a diet and lose 30 pounds. She said it was much cheaper than a new can for my bike.
