I recall reading how, back in the earlier classic eras of Japan, how the very best potters would deliberately make a random mark on any pot or vase that they thought was too perfect. To do otherwise was an act of arrogance towards the Universe and the gods; perfection is not the realm of us...

That is horrible, and I send prayers that you remain safe and unharmed. And my additional prayers here sent for the victims of the brutality.

I used to ride a BMW R-50/2; I'm real fond of the BMW machines (especially those opposed twin cylinders, actually might have saved me from losing my foot one rainy day). I don't mean to drift too far, but it sure would be sweet if you could post a pic.

I don't know the answer to your question, but somebody else here likely does. So, Welcome from here in Virginia, and if you got a minute a pic of that block will be real appreciated.

I can shoot right out MY back door! It's just that if I did the neighbor behind me would sure get hot about it I'm sure. :whistle::mrgreen:

For a little book-match in the thread, here's a shot of "Doc's" sister ship "FiFi" also making a landing approach: https://youtu.be/HOqP7brIjd8

I couldn't find a post about this by anybody yet, and just ran across this vid on YouTube. I figured I'd post it here: - She sure is a Beauty. https://youtu.be/CscShi3BV8Q

This post here reads almost like a Sherlock Holmes story. You were sure dogging it to get to the key of the mystery. [thumbzup]

54* sounds plenty cool to me, but I'm guessing it isn't. What is "standard" automotive cold?

It is a good sound. It says "authority", and no BS.

Do you have any idea how many miles that gear oil had on it since the last service?

YouTube has an algorithm for me or something i guess, and this vid popped up today. Funny because it's a compilation of three separate film reels, and the second of the three mentions the German rescue of Mussilini, and the third mentions how it was unsuccessful: https://youtu.be/VDcB0pSUYOI

I'm sorry to hear that you're hitting a rough spot with work and all. But I just know something good will come up for you, and sooner than you think, too. And that's tough to have to sell the Kraz, but I hope you made a little off of it; and it had to have made the buyer happy (so maybe it all...
