Guest Swifty Posted September 23, 2008 #1 Posted September 23, 2008 I saw this number on my bike this weekend. Do you Yanks know what THAT number means to a Canadian venturerider? (go ahead, have some fun...at my expense...I could use a laugh now that summer is over)
BradT Posted September 23, 2008 #4 Posted September 23, 2008 So within two minutes them yanks figured it out. So were you impressed or did they surprise you ? That brown one still lifts the tire with a crack of the throttle. HEy Dan does the Blue ones do that as well ? Careful how you answer the miss' maybe looking over your shoulder BRad PS wheres the pictures to prove it you should know the rules

BradT Posted September 23, 2008 #6 Posted September 23, 2008 Google is my friend. 100,000 miles on an 86, 83,000 on my 99. Y'all need to ride more!!!! Another member, close to here had the same mileage as Swifty but on his 99, so what your excuse as we only have about 6 good months to ride. :rotf:Swifty has only had his bike for a 3 or 4 years.

Eck Posted September 23, 2008 #7 Posted September 23, 2008 I saw this number on my bike this weekend. Do you Yanks know what THAT number means to a Canadian venturerider? (go ahead, have some fun...at my expense...I could use a laugh now that summer is over) Swifty, I really enjoyed "sharing" a few of those "numbers" with you my friend...... mine is around 58k-plus ..right now...
Squeeze Posted September 23, 2008 #8 Posted September 23, 2008 ..., so what your excuse as we only have about 6 good months to ride. .. Brad Ouchhhhhhh, that hurt :big-grin-emoticon::big-grin-emoticon::big-grin-emoticon:
bongobobny Posted September 23, 2008 #9 Posted September 23, 2008 OK, so as to not disappoint Dave, I'll post a silly answer... Uhhh, is that the star date that Captain Kirk first visited your planet, Swifty????
Guest Swifty Posted September 23, 2008 #10 Posted September 23, 2008 So within two minutes them yanks figured it out. So were you impressed or did they surprise you ? yah, well, boring group...I was hoping for something like... - you couldn't have seen that number because there aren't that many digits on the odo, or - that number refers to the number of plastic tabs you've had to rebuild, or - that's the number of 2nd gens I've seen Swifty pass on the Dragon, or - that's the number of first gen owners who have switched to the dark side, or - the actual mileage is higher, Swifty, since the front wheel is off the ground some of the time, or - ....alas, no fun in this crowd after summer is over, I guess. Swifty, I really enjoyed "sharing" a few of those "numbers" with you my friend...... ...ditto, good buddy.
Eck Posted September 23, 2008 #11 Posted September 23, 2008 Here you go Swifty...some memories of a few of those numbers... Last picture is the best..........
BradT Posted September 24, 2008 #12 Posted September 24, 2008 Uhhh, is that the star date that Captain Kirk first visited your planet, Swifty???? Hey Squeeze this comment I sure hurts more but Funny. You just have know Swifty to understand. Eck second pic is very nice should have been in the calendar, along side of the first pic if you removed the person. Nice pics. Brad

Just so your not totally dissapointed, the First comment above is so true. and the second you would not have as many miles if you shut the engine off while it was hung up (see pic) BRad
