Subject: On My New 98


Hi @ers'

Well to my surprise my 98 @ was available for pick up today, so I just
picked it up. It wasn't supposed to be ready till the 28th of this month
so you can imagine how surprised I was to be able to pick it up today.
My personal early Xmas present.

I ordered an original equipment center stand a few days ago, should be
in next week.

I visited the M&P site last night and found several parts under
construction, and the e-mail address they have built into the site
didn't even work. I have heard several bad stories and a few good ones
about M&P. I would like to order a set of the engine guards, and maybe a
complete tech manual. In the catalog I received from them some months
ago the information seems to be only good up to 96. Thus, I wanted to
see if any changes had occurred in the bike design since 96.

Is there any other companies on the web like M&P that has accessories
available for the @s?

I was also very surprised at the lack of a real helmet lock, that cable
under the seat seems a bit annoying. I noticed another @ with a very
short cable lock they were using had it attached to the rear rack. I
would assume they use it to secure the helmet. Does anyone out there
have any other ideas?

Thanks in advance.
