Here in Oregon the snow has started to accumalate. So the top people at
Lopsidedhead Inc have been busy working up a plan in our secret
labratory which is located just around the corner from 7-11 on State and
Lancaster to help riders get out there and ride in any conditions.
These should be hitting the market place in about 6 weeks.

Technically it should work

Hmmm, now I'm thinking of throwing my little snow blower on the front
of mine, and a belly blade to clean it off real good. Damn it, the
voices are starting again!!

What is that device on the front? It looks designed to scoop up something
or the other. Strange looking contraption.
I want one. It seems a good device to shave-off cactus at their base
instead of impaling against them. I'd hone the leading edge nice and sharp
and anchor a spike in front of the cross-member to gather up the harvested
cacti.
Embracing a saguaro or cholla is a terrible idea although it does modify a
tourmaster jacket so it acts like one of those high-priced hot-weather jobs.

Can't nobodi proov I got nun a them there fork sprang barins in my
scooter!!
Hell, I'm the guy with the KLR that steers right when I hit the front
brake at speed with no rear brake applied.
Seems like the back brake in conjunction, minimizes the effect.
Guess I'll start another thread in a month or so to solve the mystery!
Thanks, you guys have been very helpfull,,,,HHHHHAAAAAAAARRRR!!!!!!
Rod, hell with this, I'm goin ridin!!
