Ditto, although that's a brilliant idea! It seems like a popular mod with 
the Buell crowd to replace their stock under-motor mufflers with 
over-the-counter ones from the auto shop. Cheap, more noise.. etc. But 
then they've already got the space and plumbing in place for it. It seems 
like it would really be a tight fit on the ST.

It was _nasty_. Ick. My theory is that the sudden heavy rain lifted all 
the gunk up out of the slightly porous asphalt. I figured after a night of 
rain the roads would be washed clear, but there was just oil everywhere. 
Yuck!
