    They should just put a cash register on the other side of that sign.

    Lovely picture, Roger.
    I'll tell you if there is one thing I learned about travelling in the USA it's DO NOT speed coming or going from small towns. There is always a cop there. From what I'm told it's part of the town's financial planning to catch tourists coming through. Lol

                  While they can do the seat too, I'm not getting that done. It's quite the process. The bike will be cleaned (It's my bike so that's already done lol) and then they will polish and remove any scratches..and "clay bar" it. I may get it done to all my bikes.

                    The seat? I'm sure that I'm not the only person here who recalls pulling the ultimate nOoB move and applying Armour-All to my first bike's seat... and footrest rubbers... and grips... and tires...

                        Mr Sheen (ironically, it had nothing to do with Barry) spray polish on the vinyl seat.
                        Ouch.
                        The seat that has never been touched with vinyl or any other cleaner / polish is still holding up ok. It was re-covered nearly 30 years ago, and still uncracked. Another seat re-covered at the the same time (and was cleaned / polished occasionally) fell to bits a few years ago.

                          Armor All on the seat? It was a standard prank to coat a unsuspecting buddies seat with it for a while in our group.

                                Nice bike trevor. It's really fascinating to see how motorcycles of yore evolved into the lean mean machines they are now.

                                I wonder whether the new gen will hold up as well as our 40 year old bikes.
