Welcome Dr. Kinney. Your braincase looks to be a few cc's larger than our own illustrious Jonathan180iq. There may be an opening for his Lord of The Forum position, I hear his wife is making him sell his bike because she has "other priorities." ;)

Tick, tick.... TICK.

:whistle:

Thanks for the welcome. Braincase? Help me out a little here I am not sure what you mean. At any rate, I am really glad to be a part of this forum. And my wife made me buy my bike...she loves the thing.

Your braincase, your brainbucket, your head. At least I think that is what he is talking about.

Braincase/head is protected by brainbucket/helmet. That is what I have always thought in my neck of the woods.

O.K. so I am slow....notice I didn't say a a little slow!!! Yes, _phd, but not in language, math, science, or motor cycles, and surely not in slang. But I think you have all drawn me a clear picture. What ever happen to there is no such thing as a dumb question? Hey, just kidding. I told you I was slow. Heck, my boots have gotten stuck three times between my gear shift and the peg and caused me to fall flat on the asphalt. O.K, let the jokes and crude comments begin!!!

Dude has BIG boots! Plus a hardy fellow - I think if I had taken three face plants already, I'd have put the GZ away by now.

This needs to be fixed, if it hasn't been already. It is not all that uncommon; indicates that your boots are too large at the toe (steel reinforced ??) and/or that the shifter linkage needs to be adjusted to give you more room underneath.

Have you studied the situation at all to see what you are doing wrong?
It's really pretty simple; even a PHD can do it !! :poked: :biggrin:

[douglaskinney_phd]

Yeap! Fixed it. 3 times. :shocked: ( I am a slow learner or I just like falling on my face!!!) Took it to the shop for an oil leak..they re-adjusted back to factory and I didn't notice it. :poke2: :poke2: That brought my second fall on my pride. :lol: Adjusted again but failed to tighten the nuts and it moved back on me. I finally took the shifter loose from the back and moved it back, re-adjusted the linkage, and tighten the nuts. Seems to be working. And the boots are steel toed, U.S.A.F. issue. I also shaved off the pegs a little on the very front and very back side to help keep the boots from hanging up......So I have learned a lesson the hard way...three times!!! :rawk:
