  20. about the age of 20, I was replacing the rear drum brakes on my kawasaki. I bought some kind of brake drum cleaning, from a can. I went ahead and sprayed the inside of the drum, then installed the new brake shoes, slapped it all back together, and took it for a ride., came to the corner, and could not stop. blow the intersection at 45 mph. (Major intersection. scared the S*** out of me. second this year. rode the bike over the the west coast of florida, knowing we'd run into rain. 2 up pulling the trailer. by the time we got to Sanibel Island, the winds had picked up to 65 mph. and frigging pouring. we rode throught it, then crossed the 3 bridges going to the Island. cross winds, pushed the bike, like I was on ice, laying into the wind, and the trailers was heading the other way. I did some intence butt squeezes there. I had NEVER been to afraid. not to mention, the dumb cages, tail gating us down the bridges, laying on there horns. We never found the dark blue saab that passed us on the right shoulder, comming down the bridge. His ass would have been mine. Be hard to drive with 4 flat tires, and no windows, and a few holes in the engine.

  23. QUOTE=tx2sturgis;507314]Fifth wheel trailers and couplers use what is called a kingpin, mounted on an apron plate on the trailer, pointing down, and it slides horizontally into a set of steel, self-closing, jaws embedded in the pivoting fifth wheel plate mounted on the frame or bed of the towing unit. Gooseneck trailers have a female coupler on the trailer that drops vertically over the solidly mounted 2-5/16" ball mounted on the frame or bed of the towing unit. Me thinks some of those Floridians may be confused! Do you want a beer or don't you?????
