Thanks, I can't wait, I love that combo. I am glad I went with it.

I already got my production number. Late Feb/Early March is when Angus should be in. Now that horrible wait begins again.

Can't be nearly as bad as the first wait.

I didn't have to wait as long as one came in almost like the one I ordered (it had leather, mine didn't). So I took it. This is going to be worse, as now I got about 10 weeks to wait.

Welcome agiduda ... to the bemused, crazed, crazy, daft, delirious, deranged, ding-a-ling, distracted, distraught, flipped out, foolish, frenzied, fruity, hysterical world of MAMA. And thanks for becoming our 40th member.

Sniff... My kind of people, I should be able to easily dissapear into the crowd. A good thing when "they" are looking for me.
I probably won't be on much the next couple days as my wife, myself and three cats are taking a 1500 mile drive.

No way you'll dissappear here. If those adjectives described you they appoint you ambassador to MCO.

Congrats on swelling the number of swells to 40. Been a long time since I've seen forty.
We'll have to change the name from Yo MAMA to Big MAMA.

Hiya John. I'll get you thru those weeks. We could combine night skiing with a Moon Dance.

My Max is at New Country for the 10,000 and also to replace the skirt I ripped up and left hangin'. I have some Pics of the monday route with Maxa left in more fields. I figured since it was hanging anyway I'd go off road and rip it off.

I'll post them at Ruthies.

LW: Missing most of the winter, in time for some spring events, and broken in by MOT---- perfect!
Have a good trip!

To all MAMA'ers. Happy Holiday from GMINI and Montauk. Check it out closely right bumper.

[agiduda]

After the nice weather of the past week or so I have to ask. What is the best way to get the ice off the headlights?

Good one! Iced right over it. Further proof that winter, in my not so humble opinion, sucks.

Lights on for 3 minutes then hit about 105 on the hwy. It'll fly right off

[agiduda]

Ice, highway, 105mph, uh, no thanks. Guess I'll get used to hauling hot water out in the mornings.

Be careful with hot/warm water! You could very easily crack the lens cover. Another solution would be to wipe a healthy handful of Crisco over each lens each evening. Wipe it off in the a.m. with a paper towel and use the residual to water proof your galoshes and grease up the front gate hinges or slick your D.A. In addition, nature's little friskies like the woodpecker and nuthatch will be able to feast from the bounty of your greased up head lights.
