a CD player for music nowadays is almost a thing of the past. I use Sirius XM on the scoot and digital satellite music thru the TV/stereo in the home. Hardly ever crank up my ancient CD player on the stereo system. Don't have an MP3 player but eventually I will get one.

without passing lamps, you are not allowed to pass anyone ....

Speaking of onions...and not meaning to hijack this thread but ... for years and years I suffered from gastric pains ... could not figgure it out ... sometimes the pain was quite severe. Found out thru a friend a few years back (who was allergic to onions) that it was the onion. Onion is in just about everything at a restaurant in one way or another. Mainly in soups or sauces. We use them at home when we cook as well .... slice 'em up on this or that. I like onions but.... since I stopped eating anything that had onion in it, or anything that's a part of the onion family, no more gastric pains ... just an FYI.

It didn't reduce the whine at all ... but now I hear 2 distinct sounds... the whine, and the bark of the mufflers ... sometimes the mufflers overpower the whine so, I guess the answer is ... the louder the mufflers, the less chance of hearing the whine ... does that make any sense? hmmmmm... straight pipes anyone?

SNOW???? ... ICE???? what's that??? :rasberry: Well let me answer your Q .... Firstly, you know where I live. Secondly, over the coming months (December, January, February, and March) while your scoot is stored away for the WINTER because you have FRIGID TEMPS, SNOW, and ICE ... guess what I will be doing... RIDING MY SCOOT :rasberry: (I knew my turn would come) All kidding aside tho ... you've been pretty lucky to get in as much riding as you did up to last Thursday. I doubt I will ride much over those month's coz we get very few nice enuf days on the weekend to ride but... for the most part ... it's generally SNOW & ICE FREE and the temps are almost always ABOVE ZERO.

I would just like to add that it isn't just Freebird or the moderators that make this a great site... it's ALL the great folks here ... we all make it what it is and that says an awful lot about each and every one here.

Now that reminds me of a joke that was posted here recently about the blond ... guy told her he needed his porch painted ...gave her a bucket of paint and a brush ... she thought he said Porsche ... :rotf:
-
actually, that's what I was looking for when I came across the house one ... as it turns out tho, wife wants the bedroom painted and we've been mulling over colors, etc for a couple months and still can't decide... this thing will surely help a lot.

do you have a headset plugged in? I think that volume control only works when the headset is connected.

This is way cool .... click here

One thing that hasn't been mentioned but I believe is something that makes it easier and easier for drivers to a) not see you and b) not hear you (consider those comments from ambulance and police car drivers). The automotive manufacturing industry is making vehicles virtually sound proof, they are adding advanced, surround sound stereo systems, GPS navigation systems, TV's and so on .... with all these "distractions" readilly available that makes the cockpit of a vehicle more like a person's personal "media room", how easy does that make it for drivers to be distracted from their NUMBER ONE responsibility when behind the wheel. Heck, even in my 1996 Dakota, with the windows up and the heater or A/C going full blast it is sometimes hard to hear an emergency vehicle siren until it is quite close. Look at some of these luxury cars nowadays ... 12 speaker stereo's, in-dash GPS and integrated TV..you name it... sheeeesh ... I gotta stop now... I'm making myself angry...

-
Thanks for the info. As for the above, do you get the impression that I am a "follow the leader" kinda guy?? Actually, I was gonna snap a pic last night but I got side-trakked ... maybe I'll do it tonight... then again... maybe I won't

heh... I can think of at least ONE thing better than that, that makes me feel warm and fuzzy .... so, what you're saying is... if it's minus 10 but the windchill factor makes it feel like minus 20 that means I will feel the absense of heat a lot faster... I think I'll stay indoors where it's warm and fuzzy...
