If it could run on Canadian Beer you wouldn't need nitrous!

It is normal BUT your bike may disappear for short periods (1 to 2 weeks) between November and February. Don't be alarmed. It will be vacationing in Mexico.

And there is how they named the band they were in such a RUSH to get out of Iowa

BTW does the Canadian model have a special holder for Poptarts toaster pastries and an optional toaster shelf by the exhaust?

Canadian models have black handlebars too - wrapped in hockey tape. That's "hOckey," not "hAckey."

As a matter of fact, just behind the cylinders on the gearbox is an excellent place to reheat left over pizza and pop tarts. Short 20min. ride,....enjoy!

Wrap the pizza or pop tart in foil carefully. Gooey filling or cheese and pizza grease are a real pain to remove.

Beware of Canadian models with a buildup of grease and cheese as this shows evidence of neglect.
