I've been sick for the last couple 30 00:01:26.400 --> 00:01:29.680 of days. And I thought that, what the frack are 31 00:01:29.680 --> 00:01:33.040 you doing sitting at the table.

She was this way diagonally, so 39 00:01:53.920 --> 00:01:55.480 she was about five feet away. 40 00:01:56.000 --> 00:01:59.959 Thank god. But keep you ass home.

Sick? Now? Thank you 45 00:02:08.879 --> 00:02:11.520 very much? All right, So what I'm gonna do today? 46 00:02:11.520 --> 00:02:15.800 First of all, you know, Daniel Charleston died in April, 47 00:02:15.919 --> 00:02:18.960 and I miss him around Christmas. I miss him constantly, 48 00:02:19.080 --> 00:02:23.039 but I miss him around Christmas. I talked to his brother. 49 00:02:23.120 --> 00:02:26.360 We just found out that another family friend, Toko, an 50 00:02:26.400 --> 00:02:29.879 eighty year old next show girl, has passed away, which 51 00:02:30.599 --> 00:02:33.599 is just sad. She went to my sixtieth birthday. I 52 00:02:33.719 --> 00:02:36.400 liked her, and so that's sad. 53 00:02:36.879 --> 00:02:39.319 And you know, the music is sad, and so I 54 00:02:39.400 --> 00:02:42.479 just want to tell you that, you know, it's okay 55 00:02:42.520 --> 00:02:44.439 to be sad around the holidays. 56 00:02:44.639 --> 00:02:47.840 Okay, it's okay. Here here's a little PSA for you. 57 00:02:48.240 --> 00:02:49.280 Good morning everyone. 58 00:02:49.479 --> 00:02:51.960 I was sitting here having tea out of my lovely 59 00:02:52.000 --> 00:02:56.199 old country roses that Daniel Charleston and Steve Cabral gave me. 60 00:02:56.479 --> 00:03:00.919 Daniel Charleston has now died. It's my first Ristmas without him, 61 00:03:00.960 --> 00:03:04.479 and I started crying. Christmas songs are playing and many 62 00:03:04.520 --> 00:03:07.520 of them are so depressing. And last night I had a. 63 00:03:07.560 --> 00:03:09.400 Dream with Andrew in it, and he was mad at 64 00:03:09.400 --> 00:03:11.680 me for the first part, which what else is new, 65 00:03:12.159 --> 00:03:14.400 But by the end of the dream he kissed me 66 00:03:14.520 --> 00:03:16.800 good morning and said hello as he was cleaning. 67 00:03:16.560 --> 00:03:20.319 Out the refrigerator for some reason. And I just want 68 00:03:20.360 --> 00:03:23.879 to tell you the holiday blues are normal. They happen. 69 00:03:24.759 --> 00:03:27.159 I used to be the center of so many universes 70 00:03:27.240 --> 00:03:29.240 and now it'll just be me and Ember here in 71 00:03:29.319 --> 00:03:33.800 Las Vegas on Christmas Eve, Christmas Day, I will see Steve. 72 00:03:33.520 --> 00:03:36.800 And my friend Sean Andaldo. And yeah, I was balling 73 00:03:36.840 --> 00:03:40.199 my eyes out just now. I really was, and I thought. 74 00:03:39.960 --> 00:03:43.159 Holy crap, you're here on Christmas. You're crying, You're alone. 75 00:03:43.719 --> 00:03:47.319 You're just tragic. How did this happen? But this passes, 76 00:03:47.680 --> 00:03:50.639 and I'm not tragic. And I do have friends and 77 00:03:50.719 --> 00:03:55.719 I will see them, and sometimes, especially in this year 78 00:03:55.759 --> 00:04:00.879 twenty twenty four, which has been so frigging exhausting, we 79 00:04:01.120 --> 00:04:06.520 just need a minute. And it's okay. It's okay if 80 00:04:06.560 --> 00:04:08.960 you're sad or blue, but you gotta let it pass. 81 00:04:09.520 --> 00:04:11.680 You don't reach for the ketamine, you don't reach for 82 00:04:11.719 --> 00:04:14.719 the alcohol. You don't reach for anything that's gonna make 83 00:04:14.759 --> 00:04:16.879 it worse, even though it makes you feel better at 84 00:04:16.920 --> 00:04:19.480 the time. You reach for a cup of tea and 85 00:04:19.519 --> 00:04:23.319 you remember all of those people, and then you carry 86 00:04:23.399 --> 00:04:25.240 on and do yoga and go to the park and 87 00:04:25.240 --> 00:04:27.839 then take your little dog to the casinos and go 88 00:04:27.879 --> 00:04:31.160 see all of the Christmas ornaments and you carry on. 89 00:04:32.199 --> 00:04:37.079 Being blue at Christmas is okay. Staying blue at Christmas 90 00:04:37.639 --> 00:04:41.720 is not so pick yourself up, have a great day, 91 00:04:42.000 --> 00:04:46.160 and merry friggin Christmas. Okay, So on this holiday, on 92 00:04:46.199 --> 00:04:49.160 this December twenty fourth, I know many of you may 93 00:04:49.199 --> 00:04:53.920 think of the homeless tonight, you know I do. It's like, 94 00:04:54.199 --> 00:04:55.560 do they know it's Christmas? 95 00:04:55.600 --> 00:04:58.920 Do they know it's Christmas time? 96 00:04:59.319 --> 00:05:02.240 At a Oh? 97 00:05:02.279 --> 00:05:05.000 And so think a lot about the homeless, as you know. 98 00:05:05.079 --> 00:05:06.680 I see them at the park. I just helped a 99 00:05:06.680 --> 00:05:09.920 girl get into the shelter. And I remember when then 100 00:05:10.279 --> 00:05:15.639 candidate Mitt Romney was running for president and he said, 101 00:05:16.279 --> 00:05:19.680 and this is what the Republicans believe, that there are 102 00:05:19.839 --> 00:05:24.360 enough safety nets to catch the homeless. That you know, 103 00:05:24.720 --> 00:05:27.759 there's enough shelters, enough public programs, and that no one 104 00:05:27.800 --> 00:05:29.120 really has to be homeless if. 105 00:05:29.000 --> 00:05:34.079 They don't want to be. Okay. So when Mitt Romney 106 00:05:34.079 --> 00:05:34.480 said this. 107 00:05:34.560 --> 00:05:37.480 Years ago, I thought, let me go out and ask 108 00:05:37.519 --> 00:05:38.399 a few homeless. 109 00:05:38.720 --> 00:05:40.360 And that's exactly what I did. 110 00:05:40.480 --> 00:05:42.959 By the way, I weighed much more and I was 111 00:05:43.160 --> 00:05:45.600 much less healthy than I am now. So it's going 112 00:05:45.680 --> 00:05:47.240 to be fun to see some of this old footage 113 00:05:47.240 --> 00:05:50.360 and see how I've changed. But let's go out to 114 00:05:50.439 --> 00:05:52.480 the streets of Long Beach again as we did in 115 00:05:52.560 --> 00:05:55.399 life and segments, which is coming back to Free Speech 116 00:05:55.439 --> 00:05:58.720 TV by the way next year. And let's go out 117 00:05:58.759 --> 00:06:01.759 and ask the homeless about safety nets because this is 118 00:06:01.800 --> 00:06:07.720 still just as relevant today as it's ever been. You know, 119 00:06:07.800 --> 00:06:10.839 it really truly is. So let's go out and talk 120 00:06:10.879 --> 00:06:11.319 about it. 121 00:06:14.720 --> 00:06:17.759 Hey, it's Carol and welcome to life in segments. I've 122 00:06:17.759 --> 00:06:20.319 been thinking a lot about dumpsters recently. I know that 123 00:06:20.399 --> 00:06:23.199 sounds odd, but I really truly have been. You see, 124 00:06:23.240 --> 00:06:26.639 I've actually eaten out of one before when I was homeless. 125 00:06:26.920 --> 00:06:29.480 It was a McDonald's dumpster, and the food was all wrapped, 126 00:06:29.639 --> 00:06:30.519 but it was a dumpster. 127 00:06:30.639 --> 00:06:33.560 Nonetheless, each and every day out here in my alley, I. 128 00:06:33.480 --> 00:06:35.480 See a lot of people coming through and cleaning out 129 00:06:35.519 --> 00:06:39.160 these dumpsters of cans and bottles. Why because they're desperate 130 00:06:39.160 --> 00:06:42.079 for money and that's their safety net. Now I'm really 131 00:06:42.079 --> 00:06:45.720 worried because back in the last elections, Republicans said that 132 00:06:45.839 --> 00:06:48.000 these people the poorest of the poor, that they have 133 00:06:48.040 --> 00:06:51.000 a safety net, that they don't really need the public services, 134 00:06:51.040 --> 00:06:53.720 that they're all just really lazy. Well, I kind of 135 00:06:53.759 --> 00:06:56.720 know the other side of that story because I've been there. 136 00:06:56.959 --> 00:06:59.000 So I thought, instead of just talking about them or 137 00:06:59.040 --> 00:07:02.000 at them one of our segments today on Life and Segments, 138 00:07:02.000 --> 00:07:04.399 and go out and actually talk to the homeless and 139 00:07:04.439 --> 00:07:06.680 see what they think of the safety net and what 140 00:07:06.720 --> 00:07:09.040 would really truly help them. 141 00:07:09.199 --> 00:07:11.920 Now, I've been very lucky because. 142 00:07:11.680 --> 00:07:13.920 I can get up, get out of. 143 00:07:13.879 --> 00:07:16.720 The dumpster and leave this life behind, but so many 144 00:07:16.759 --> 00:07:19.480 others can't. So let's go talk to them. Also today 145 00:07:19.480 --> 00:07:21.680 we're gonna look at transportation and we're gonna go live 146 00:07:21.720 --> 00:07:25.079 on kg A M A ten All on Correl's Life 147 00:07:25.120 --> 00:07:27.759 and Segments, whose career seems. 148 00:07:27.519 --> 00:07:29.279 To have gone literally to the dumbs. 149 00:07:29.319 --> 00:07:33.279 Who do you think understands the poor? More Democrats are Republicans. 150 00:07:33.839 --> 00:07:36.519 Doesn't really matter who it cares about the four They 151 00:07:36.560 --> 00:07:38.639 care about the election and their money. 152 00:07:38.839 --> 00:07:40.879 What would give you hope? What could a politician do 153 00:07:40.959 --> 00:07:41.879 that would give you hope? 154 00:07:41.879 --> 00:07:43.560 That would it make you feel like somebody cared? 155 00:07:44.560 --> 00:07:46.120 Is there anything they could do that would make you 156 00:07:46.160 --> 00:07:49.439 feel like they care?

You can see it right there 238 00:11:30.480 --> 00:11:34.159 behind me. Looks like Bob Dylan. So how was the film? 239 00:11:34.600 --> 00:11:37.799 Well, Timothy Chamaley convinced me he was Bob Dylan. I 240 00:11:37.879 --> 00:11:39.840 didn't really like Bob Dylan growing up. I wasn't a 241 00:11:39.840 --> 00:11:42.639 folk music kind of guy, but I can certainly respect 242 00:11:42.639 --> 00:11:45.480 the lyrics and the movement and Joan Bias and all 243 00:11:45.480 --> 00:11:47.720 the others and Bob Dylan. Thank you for all your 244 00:11:47.720 --> 00:11:50.519 great songs. Like Blowing in the Wind and such after 245 00:11:50.559 --> 00:11:54.279 Timothy Shamalay very good performance will be up for nominations. 246 00:11:54.279 --> 00:11:57.000 I'm sure I still am not comfortable with his shirt 247 00:11:57.000 --> 00:11:59.480 off because he looks twelve years old, smoking and acting 248 00:11:59.519 --> 00:12:02.799 like a grown but looking twelve years old. But a 249 00:12:02.840 --> 00:12:06.559 really good movie, lots of great supporting roles, and very 250 00:12:06.559 --> 00:12:07.960 interesting life of Bob Dylan. 251 00:12:08.000 --> 00:12:10.519 A very short life of Bob Dylan, meaning. 252 00:12:10.279 --> 00:12:12.759 They only go up to nineteen sixty five to the 253 00:12:12.919 --> 00:12:18.519 electric controversy where Bob Dylan decided to use electric instruments 254 00:12:18.559 --> 00:12:22.559 at the Monterey Folk Festival and folk people were throwing 255 00:12:22.600 --> 00:12:24.679 things at him and booing him off the stage, and 256 00:12:25.559 --> 00:12:28.919 he created quite a controversy. They were purist and didn't 257 00:12:28.960 --> 00:12:32.480 want electric rock music to invade their folk music, but 258 00:12:32.799 --> 00:12:36.200 Bob Dylan went ahead and did that, and his next 259 00:12:36.279 --> 00:12:38.799 album Highway sixty one. I think it was called I'd 260 00:12:38.840 --> 00:12:40.399 have to look it up. Please don't kill me for 261 00:12:40.440 --> 00:12:42.279 not knowing it. I told you, not really a fan. 262 00:12:42.759 --> 00:12:44.840 But that album is considered one of the best rock 263 00:12:44.879 --> 00:12:47.320 albums or one of the best folk albums ever made, 264 00:12:47.679 --> 00:12:52.360 and Bob Dylan then created the folk rock sound. Very 265 00:12:52.360 --> 00:12:56.799 impressive movie, very impressive piece of history. Kudos to Timothy Shamalay, 266 00:12:57.120 --> 00:13:00.200 to all the entire cast, and to Bob Dylan for 267 00:13:00.440 --> 00:13:04.039 being a protest songwriter, which we could use today. All Right, 268 00:13:04.399 --> 00:13:06.960 net will do tomorrow screeners eight to Z every day 269 00:13:07.039 --> 00:13:08.960 until I'm done. All Right, all of you know that 270 00:13:09.039 --> 00:13:11.519 I like to ride motorcycles still at sixty two. 271 00:13:11.960 --> 00:13:14.039 In fact, I think I want to look at the canams. 272 00:13:14.159 --> 00:13:17.519 You know, they're three wheels. I'd love to take a 273 00:13:17.519 --> 00:13:18.480 look at the canams. 274 00:13:19.519 --> 00:13:20.639 I think Mber would like that. 275 00:13:21.000 --> 00:13:26.519 But anyway, automatic motorcycles are a thing, and Aprilia made 276 00:13:26.519 --> 00:13:29.200 a fabulous bike called the Aprilia Mana that you can 277 00:13:29.240 --> 00:13:33.240 still get. They've then discontinued in twenty seventeen. They stopped 278 00:13:33.240 --> 00:13:35.799 making them, but they're still out there and they're very affordable, 279 00:13:36.320 --> 00:13:39.320 and it just opens up the door for motorcycling as 280 00:13:39.360 --> 00:13:42.639 a whole. I am still a big advocate for it. 281 00:13:42.639 --> 00:13:46.879 It's less impact on the infrastructure, less insurance. The insurance 282 00:13:46.919 --> 00:13:50.279 on my motorcycling, but forty dollars a month. The insurance 283 00:13:50.279 --> 00:13:52.240 on a two thousand and one Lexus r X three 284 00:13:52.320 --> 00:13:55.000 hundred is one hundred and ninety dollars a month. The 285 00:13:55.120 --> 00:13:58.480 gas for that Lexus is seventy dollars a month. I 286 00:13:58.559 --> 00:14:01.759 put twelve dollars in every two months on this, you know, 287 00:14:01.799 --> 00:14:04.159 on the Piaggio MP three five hundred that I have. 288 00:14:05.080 --> 00:14:08.519 So I still am an advocate if you can ride them, 289 00:14:08.759 --> 00:14:10.879 which is why I want to look at the can 290 00:14:11.039 --> 00:14:14.679 m and there's many seniors sixties and seventies to ride motorcycle. 291 00:14:14.840 --> 00:14:17.799 So let's take a look at how and when I 292 00:14:17.919 --> 00:14:20.879 fell in love with the Aprillia Mana eight fifty and 293 00:14:21.000 --> 00:14:23.279 maybe it'll inspire you, I don't know next year to 294 00:14:23.639 --> 00:14:26.759 get on a motorcycle, get on a motor scooter, get 295 00:14:26.759 --> 00:14:28.279 out and see the world a different way. 296 00:14:29.080 --> 00:14:31.600 Okay, today is a busy, busy day. 297 00:14:31.759 --> 00:14:33.720 The first thing I have to do is take the 298 00:14:33.759 --> 00:14:37.519 Mana down to Pagio Custa Mesa and swap it out 299 00:14:37.559 --> 00:14:41.679 with a Mana GT. This is the Mana Mana, my 300 00:14:41.799 --> 00:14:44.919 Mana a Prillia Mana eight fifty. 301 00:14:48.399 --> 00:14:50.159 This is Manny the third. 302 00:14:52.759 --> 00:14:53.960 And I love him very much. 303 00:14:53.960 --> 00:14:56.759 She went to San Francisco with me, performed like an 304 00:14:57.000 --> 00:14:59.519 h three times now to San Francisco going back, performed 305 00:14:59.519 --> 00:15:03.000 like an ap absolute Trooper. I've written him in wind 306 00:15:03.120 --> 00:15:07.159 in rain. His rain mode was extraordinary in San Francisco, 307 00:15:08.080 --> 00:15:11.840 and even now I am going to pop him open. 308 00:15:13.320 --> 00:15:16.600 One of the most unique features. I'll put my bag 309 00:15:16.639 --> 00:15:22.080 in there, going to put the absolutely fabulous yet to 310 00:15:22.120 --> 00:15:27.879 find a flaw with iPad. Yes, the iPad will fit 311 00:15:28.279 --> 00:15:34.240 just nicely. As you can see close this up. Got 312 00:15:34.240 --> 00:15:37.519 my iPod over here. Of course, I have all the 313 00:15:37.559 --> 00:15:40.440 safety gear I have. It's summer out, you know, it's warmer, 314 00:15:41.200 --> 00:15:45.200 not as cold, and so instead of leathers now. Alpine 315 00:15:45.200 --> 00:15:50.000 Stars has this wonderfulness or the Alpine Star's logo, this 316 00:15:50.159 --> 00:15:53.960 wonderful city collection, and it's called the City Collection. This 317 00:15:54.080 --> 00:15:57.559 is one of their City Collection jackets. It's so light 318 00:15:57.799 --> 00:16:00.240 I can't even tell you how light weight, and it 319 00:16:00.279 --> 00:16:03.360 cuts the wind. It's reinforced. There's armor there and then 320 00:16:03.360 --> 00:16:06.080 the shoulders and yet uber light weight. It's got a 321 00:16:06.080 --> 00:16:08.840 pocket right there. From my iPod, I took the liner. 322 00:16:10.960 --> 00:16:15.399 It's great, great jacket City Collection, City Collection from Alpine Stars. 323 00:16:15.440 --> 00:16:19.080 I'm wearing their pants as well. You can see these 324 00:16:19.120 --> 00:16:23.480 have armor and reinforcement, and I'm wearing Alpine Stars ankle 325 00:16:23.480 --> 00:16:28.720 boots as you can see, proper gear because I'm running 326 00:16:28.720 --> 00:16:30.360 down the coast of Masa might be on the freeway. 327 00:16:30.759 --> 00:16:40.159 Also full face helmet by my friends, my good friends, shoey, showy, shoey, 328 00:16:40.200 --> 00:16:42.799 how we want to pronounce it. And that right there, 329 00:16:42.879 --> 00:16:47.320 that little cord is for a wonderful thing called the chatterbox, 330 00:16:47.320 --> 00:16:48.879 which I don't have on right now because there's no 331 00:16:48.919 --> 00:16:51.360 one to talk to, like I'm going by myself. But 332 00:16:51.440 --> 00:16:58.080 chatterbox is a Bluetooth communication device which changes your long trips. Okay, 333 00:16:58.120 --> 00:17:01.120 I'm down here at Pasio custom mesa corporate tech center 334 00:17:01.360 --> 00:17:03.799 where I'm going to be leaving off my mana, well 335 00:17:03.840 --> 00:17:06.440 it's not mine, but the mana Manny Junior, as I 336 00:17:06.440 --> 00:17:08.680 lovingly refer to him as, and I'm gonna be picking 337 00:17:08.720 --> 00:17:12.599 up Justin. This is Justin now. Justin is different from 338 00:17:12.759 --> 00:17:16.319 Manny in many ways. Justin is a GT, which means 339 00:17:16.359 --> 00:17:19.160 he's got some fairings. He's got a windshield and this 340 00:17:19.319 --> 00:17:22.319 here and then little wind protectors here. As y'all know, 341 00:17:22.400 --> 00:17:24.240 I ride up and back to San Francisco a lot 342 00:17:24.519 --> 00:17:26.759 on my last trip when the winds were blowing. This 343 00:17:26.799 --> 00:17:30.119 would have made a huge difference, mainly on my fatigue level. 344 00:17:30.240 --> 00:17:32.960 And you know, just going full speed because this is 345 00:17:33.000 --> 00:17:35.240 gonna funnel the air over me as opposed to this 346 00:17:35.839 --> 00:17:38.519 where it just hits you, you know, square on in 347 00:17:38.559 --> 00:17:41.440 the face. So certainly for traveling longer distances and on 348 00:17:41.480 --> 00:17:43.319 the freeways, this is gonna make a lot of difference. 349 00:17:43.720 --> 00:17:46.319 Some people don't like firings, some people do. I think 350 00:17:46.359 --> 00:17:46.880 they have a. 351 00:17:46.920 --> 00:17:49.759 Nice balance here on the Mana. It's not overly done, 352 00:17:50.359 --> 00:17:53.279 and yet it still looks pretty nicked, because I like nicked. 353 00:17:54.000 --> 00:17:56.799 It has an abs system, an anti lock break system. 354 00:17:57.240 --> 00:17:58.039 This bike does not. 355 00:17:59.079 --> 00:18:00.880 This one does not has a lot of you know, 356 00:18:00.920 --> 00:18:03.680 I high sighted once, and it's quite possible that the 357 00:18:03.720 --> 00:18:04.920 antilock break system. 358 00:18:04.640 --> 00:18:06.240 Would have prevented me from doing that. 359 00:18:06.599 --> 00:18:09.000 So had I been on this bike, I probably would 360 00:18:09.079 --> 00:18:11.240 not have high sighted because it was user error. 361 00:18:11.240 --> 00:18:13.240 I'm perfectly fine with that. 362 00:18:13.359 --> 00:18:15.920 And I hit the brakes too hard, too fast, went 363 00:18:15.960 --> 00:18:17.319 over the handlebars. 364 00:18:17.559 --> 00:18:18.559 This won't let you do that. 365 00:18:19.279 --> 00:18:22.119 If you do it, it'll actually do its thing and 366 00:18:22.160 --> 00:18:24.200 stop you from flying over the handlebars, or at least 367 00:18:24.279 --> 00:18:25.920 try to idiot proof it as much as it can. 368 00:18:26.359 --> 00:18:29.880 They've also changed the dashboard. They've put it up here. 369 00:18:29.920 --> 00:18:31.400 It actually has a dashboard. 370 00:18:32.440 --> 00:18:35.920 They've kept the space, of course, and the signature space. 371 00:18:35.599 --> 00:18:38.400 Here, which as you see over there, the iPad. 372 00:18:38.039 --> 00:18:41.039 Will fit in and everything will be transferring the iPad 373 00:18:41.079 --> 00:18:43.960 over to here. They've moved this up to here, and 374 00:18:44.039 --> 00:18:46.559 they've kept all three transmission modes as well as the 375 00:18:46.599 --> 00:18:50.400 manual no clutch still, but it is certainly an upgraded 376 00:18:50.400 --> 00:18:54.319 older brother to the Aprilia Mana, which is just mana. 377 00:18:54.559 --> 00:18:57.359 This is the man of GT and I'm looking forward 378 00:18:57.400 --> 00:18:58.680 to him. And he's black and sleeking. 379 00:18:58.680 --> 00:19:00.920 He matches my side with his jacket that fall that counts, 380 00:19:01.680 --> 00:19:02.759 so I'm gonna hop on him. 381 00:19:02.799 --> 00:19:03.319 And right now. 382 00:19:03.359 --> 00:19:06.839 I rode down on the freeway on purpose because of 383 00:19:06.880 --> 00:19:09.480 the wind. I wanted to see what the comparison. So 384 00:19:09.519 --> 00:19:11.880 when I get home, I'll check in with the tape and. 385 00:19:11.839 --> 00:19:13.759 Tell you how it compared. It was pretty brusty on 386 00:19:13.799 --> 00:19:15.160 the way down here. And you know, I had to 387 00:19:15.599 --> 00:19:15.880 had to. 388 00:19:15.920 --> 00:19:16.640 Keep myself up. 389 00:19:16.680 --> 00:19:18.920 We'll see if this changes that on the on the 390 00:19:19.000 --> 00:19:21.039 route home, and I won't tell them that I was 391 00:19:21.079 --> 00:19:22.319 going about ninety five to. 392 00:19:22.279 --> 00:19:22.920 Test the wind. 393 00:19:22.920 --> 00:19:24.680 Of course, anything that I miss. 394 00:19:24.720 --> 00:19:26.440 Guys. By the way, my guys Josh down. 395 00:19:26.279 --> 00:19:28.759 Here had aprilia that always come down and say hi 396 00:19:28.799 --> 00:19:30.480 to did I miss any of the high points of 397 00:19:30.559 --> 00:19:30.839 the GT. 398 00:19:30.960 --> 00:19:32.319 I pretty much got it all done well. 399 00:19:32.400 --> 00:19:36.160 The GT comes with the new adjustable shock that's easy 400 00:19:36.160 --> 00:19:36.640 to wait. 401 00:19:36.680 --> 00:19:38.480
