[ST] blasted recall thread jinxed me

[triumph1@xxxxxxxxxxxxx]

With all of the talk on the fuel connector recall, I turned my bike on 
Saturday and fuel proceeded to spew out of the right side of the bike 
like an artery had been cut.  52,000 miles and never a problem with fuel 
connectors.  Bad part was we were on our way out of town and this put us 
behind with three hours of drive time to the dealer to get a set of the 
new metal connectors.  Install was easy, about 25 minutes.  The scary 
part is I rode 70 miles the day before with the damn thing leaking all 
over and didn't even know it.  I suspect the reason I wasn't a 90mph 
ball of flames was the speed blew all of the leaking gas back and away 
from the bike.  I thought I had just spilled gas on my boot at the gas 
station.
