First big shout out to the men and women serving or served in the armed forces. U guys don't get enough cred. After reading this thread I can see why it's so easy for some of u to work and mod on your bikes! High tech, race cars, engineers, pipelines.... Sheeet man I'm just a lowly commercial real estate broker. I own a small brokerage that specializes in selling and leasing warehouses, factories and distribution buildings here in LA.

Most of it is being confortable with tools and understanding how the bike was put together as your taking it apart. once youve done that puttin back together is not too dificult.

Thanks brother! My brother in law in National Guard and in Kuwait at the moment. My cousin's an Ensign (was an E-7 went LDO). I would have had 20 this January if I stayed in. Mad respect for anyone that stays in that long.

Posted a while back but didn't have a picture of the machine I usually run. Fun when it rains and I get to make big booms!

Home away from home(aka inside the cab):

for a size comparison, the tires under the cab are roughly 6-6.5 feet tall.

Lol, yeah I get that a lot. I work for Georgia Pacific in the consumer products R&D area. Just like anything in the world, you wouldn't believe what goes into TP, paper toweling, paper plates and cups, etc. We hold hundreds of patents for this stuff. We are continually making plates stronger with less material, towels and tissue stronger, softer, more absorbent, and cheaper. Developing new ways to Manufacture and convert paper products more efficiently. So yeah, there are about 300+ people working on this stuff just for GP.
