    Anybody remember the EZ Leaker ads in mags?

    So you get a heavy duty latex prophylactic and weld a rubber tube to it, and you're ready for the Iron Butt Rally! Or most anything, really. The deluxe edition had a catch can. Otherwise the guy behind you in his Chevy will be thinking "hmm, that motorcycle has windshield wipers" ?

    I'm probably too young to have seen the ads. Based on my observations from sitting in lots of traffic and unhappily marveling at the roadside trash over the years, an old water bottle seems to be the preferred choice of containment among livery drivers and truckers these days. I recently saw what looked to be a purpose made relief device on the shoulder of 495 heading into NYC.

          Well who can't recall *@%^$*@%^$*@%^$*@%^$ing in a pop bottle in a moving car?
          And who has not let fly in a torrential downpour on a bike?
          Don't long distance racers get a catheter inserted?

              That's about as useful as a pee in a spacesuit.

                Roadside litter comes in all shapes and sizes — from dirty diapers to abandoned automobiles — but there's one category that out-grosses the rest: trucker bombs, aka pee bottles.

                  "This external, condom-type, product fits comfortably and snugly. EZ Leaker is made of natural rubber latex. A kink resistant drainage tube attaches to the leg with hook and loop tape to direct the stream directly onto the road or into the optional, easy to empty leg bag. So light weight and comfortable, you won't know it's on!"

                    The bag and catheter was always a thing to wonder about if you had a mind to impress patrons in a bar. Drink two pitchers of beer and never lose your seat.
                    Cant recall how much they held. My grandfather was a paraplegic and once upon a time my mother left him sitting at the kitchen table with my sister in her kiddie carrier.
                    He was drinking cheap sherry the traditional drink of working men hereabouts in olden times.
                    when mom returned the only bit of the scene that had changed was my sister was asleep and the wine bottle was empty. Grandfather was still playing cards.

                      Quite useful for a full day of college football bowl games. Sit through 4 of them without getting up. I guess Depends are the solution now. I wonder if you can get them in team colors?

                        I'd really rather hear about the 11EZ Turbo. Or your Norton.

                          Turbo gone to another home. Norton - got title and plate, been busy job hunting and think I scored, will find out this coming week at 2nd and final interview. I have to prioritize. The Norton needs a few hours of 'fettling', mainly setting the static timing (using a piston stop and degree wheel method) and ensuring the oil and fuel tanks are scrupulously clean, running the oil and fuel lines etc.

                            I remember an episode of the big bang theory where they were waiting in line and Howard was wearing his "stadium buddy".

                            I would rather trust my bike to a "QUACK" that KNOWS how to fix it rather than a book worm that THINKS HE KNOWS how to fix it.
