Nose Hair
Does the simple fact that I'm starting to sprout nose hair mean I'm getting too old for a speed triple, or should I put my concern on hold until ear hair starts popping out.

Neither; properly woven and oiled, it's great air filter material. You really need some back hair for strength, too.

Once it starts sprouting, you'll be covered in no time. On the plus side, it's good insulation during the cold weather months.

Yep, you need to read the manual on that, don't use WD40 like everyone else, it's not good for the sinuses.

Ride on !

It means that you're old enough for a Speed Triple!

Doh
It's one of life's mysteries that when the hair begins to thin on top...it grows quicker from the nose and ears!!!
Now I know there are a lot of clever, technical people on this forum so EXPLAIN THAT ONE!!!

leave it to doug...lol! I tend to pluck my nose hair and place it in a glass jar. I figure I'll use it one day to have a nice cardigan sweater woven for me. That way when I'm old, I can wear it on 80-90 degree days and still stay warm while riding my favorite bike....the lovely speed triple.
