    I just found a brand new set of Oggy Knobbs frame sliders for my 6th gen new in the box in my garage. At the time I bought them they were about $450. They have been sitting in a box for at a bare minimum two years as the box has been sealed since I moved to my current residence. I know I purchased them quite a while before that too.

    So seriously... HOW THE F*CK does one forget that they have $450 of new parts and farkles to put on their shit, especially when they were purchased after a wreck to prevent the same shit from happening again? I'm mildly disgusted with myself right now.

    Well, one "possible" way could be the same way my old college roommate ended up with a George Foreman grill. After partying all day in the hot sun, then a trip to the local watering hole in the evening and many libations later....that late night infomercial seemed to have gotten the better of him. Did not even remember he ordered it until it showed up at the door for delivery and he checked his billing statement. lol

    Welcome to the world of Randy - or generally, just getting old. I've been there for a while myself.

    I'm going to start working on it tonight and will get some pictures with before/after plus install. I found them while searching for the right side upper cowl cover for the windscreen. I purchased a new front fairing and wanted to get it installed.

    I don't like this getting old shit. My vision and memory are going. At least my dick still works. When that starts having issues then I'm really gonna get pissed.
