Hello, testarossa.

The 1999 BMW M3 behind my KZP is my younger son's car. (older son is driving a highly modified 1989 Volvo 740 turbo wagon) The M3 is a nice, fast, good handling coupe. However, it requires expensive parts even from Web parts stores.

BTW, a few days ago, as I was pulling onto the highway to ride to work, a CHiPs officer on a Beemer signaled that I could follow him into the HOV lane, which I did at 85 MPH. Then, he pulled away and I decided that going any faster would be a bad idea since I'm still breaking in new pistons and rings.

Cheers,

A fun trick, is to put the left and right light on a toggle so you can flip them back and forth.
I had my old 86 GSXR1100 that way and it made messing with drunks fun. They would pull over and I'd fly by. :laugh:
Remember, don't work on your bike so much you never ride it.
