From a woman's POV, I find the 'joke' offensive, but not enough to provoke comment. Until now. I don't think this 'infraction' requires any changes to how the list is run. I can ignore stupid stuff and just hope there aren't any more occurrences. If there are and I'm sufficiently offended, I'll just unsub. Each list has its own dynamics and, as a newbie, I'll listen and make my own decisions. KLR content - finally going to work on the carb today. I sure hope I can get it started after I'm finished.

Ian, I have sent your request for information to the KLR650 LIST as I think there are a number of folks there that can reply to your questions with better information then I have here. I'm sorry I have been so long in replying to your email but I have been gone for about three weeks and just returned a few days ago - getting caught up on email now! To the KLR LIST: How about some help for Ian. He has been working on getting his KLR going for over a month now! He needs help! See the questions in the text below - thanks.
