Hah, I would send this to my Tuetonic friends but like Germans in the 30's, they won't listen.

ok , got it
Pretty much. You would think when you spend this kind of money on a bike it would be well equipped. Just goes to show I paid for the badge on the side and not the quality of the bike [img]
https://ec.yimg.com/ec?url=http%3A%2F%2 ... CPM7nw--~E[/img] Lesson learned. As soon as I get it fixed I might be trading it in on a DRZ or something more suitable for my riding. My KLR was more capable in stock form than my 800.
I really believe that some people who drink the BMW Kool Aid are full of themselves, a lot like your buddy who has a bitch of a wife or girlfriend. He knows she is a PITA to live with, hates her guts but wont tell a soul. He will look you right in the eyes and say she is the greatest thing that has ever happened to him.

Hey Y'all
Many times I have seen us joking about and Me thinking about (everything on long trips LOL) a second battery to Jump OURSELF when out and about.
At Lowes(?) I Noticed a SMALL (6x3x1.4 inchs POCKET SIZED) Battery Pack with jumper cable clamps to jump a car. AND use as Power source for USB Items, Tablet etc, etc. ($100)
Trying to find it, I found POD-X5 Can jump a Diesel (car?)
Pod has 3 sizes # 4 & 5 can Power Lap tops
On Amazon you can get a POD X5 (top for them,) $135.
AGAIN ONLY 6 x 3 x 1.4 inchs AND WEIGHS ONLY 1lb, and can Jump start the bike. (besides power your cell etc.)

There is room for some fun though, simply sneak up on them in making the case for the contrary and walk them backwards to the conclusion. Then step back and watch them obfiscate and tap dance.
