Welp, if anyone wants a great suggestion for combining frustration and time wasting, try this: Remove, clean, rebuild, adjust, and confirm (in)correct parts on your Road Toad carburetor about a million times. Then, while reassembling the bike for the millionth time, take a look at the supersexy, brand-spanking NOS rubber air box snorkle in all its magnificent completeness, grab a pair of scissors, cut out the back wall, reinstall, and marvel at how magnificently the bike runs after you go back and put all the correct jets back in. Hours of your life can just slip away like minutes. Grrrrrrr!!

I was thinking along those lines but with slight modification. Allow me to introduce the all-time #1 Captainism* 2.0, all new for 2020. HURRY UP and slow down so you Can go faster. :)

* According to real life experience AND your most recent president's opener to the latest RR

No. No. A thousand times NO. (your "Captainism* 2.0 exceeds the length limit necessary to qualify as um, elegantly short. I'm sure Yogi would agree.)
