    Art, I have a 1098...base model...I love the dry clutch sound...it's at least as loud as the bike itself...people ask me if it's broke all the time. It honestly is an exquisite piece of machinery and isn't really any more expensive than other bikes (ive had lots) unless you crash them (ive done that a few times as well) so I know what I'm talking about!!

    How does a happily married X-iron worker/superhero wind up with two wedding bands for his right hand?

    Nice. I ride a Suzuki SV650, and I love it, but it pales in comparison. I do a lot of city/town riding, so i like the extra torque from the V twin. A 1098 would be beastly. Its still a plenty pricey bike, but wow. If I were togo Super Sport Id lean towards a Honda CBR, but a Duc would certainly b the dream.
    Not helping the situation since 1983.

    I tried the same thing with cheap copper rings. It turns the fingers green, but it works
    I live by three simples rules:

    1. Don't ever ask about my business
    2. Never discuss business at the table
    3. Don't ever side with anyone against the family

    I know one thing for sure. I cannot bowl with rings on at all. Not on my bowling hand at least. It doesn't matter what material. And I don't see how Gold would affect anything differently than Silver would for something like bowling. This sounds really weird to me.

    Hey maybe I'll break out a couple of my 299 or 300 rings and see if
    any of them will fit on my right hand they are all silver and I'll just
    see if they do help out any.

    Default golden moments in bowling

    You can lead a bowler to the golden rings, but you can't make them wear them!
