Its got to be something other than the Chrome browser. I am using chromium right now .... no problems at all.
Chromium is the same as Chrome, except it is not branded with the google logo all over the place, its just "plain-wrapper" chrome. I logon to this forum every day, no problem.

Richard's H-D(remembered his name)is black. Must be a combo of the special bags and the extra dodads that catch the eye. That was my saving grace the day I almost passed a BMW police bike. I should have figured it out when I saw a line of cars behind a bike going the speed limit. My bad.

Where did that pic go.........





Oh but from what I read, when the police switched to H-D they were suddenly surprised at how hard it was to catch up with lawbreakers. Apparently the KZ1000 flat out moves.

The KZ 1000 may be fast but it is hard to outrun a radio. A more than goofy friend of mine found that out last summer. Had both bikes impounded 2 weekends in a row. 2nd time he made Utube from the police helicopter. He was quite proud to tell about his final costs involved. Go figure.

I saw a cop on what I think was a beemer last week. The coolest thing was something that looked like an assault rifle stowed right along the left rear fender.

They all ride Beemers over here. Both the Guardia Civil traffic cops, & the Policia Local on their smaller ones.

awesome. I looked up some pics of lapd moto guzzis, and that would be a heck of a ride. I just am not sure my mechanical skills and time are up to the challenge just yet. I have more money than time, as they (dont' usually) say, working full time and school is about to start.
