OK Sheepshagger, knowing the British definition of the term "shag" it begs a question I'm not prepared to ask.  Grin

No suggestions on gauges however.

When I put the Woody's fairing on my bike, it was requiring me to relocate the speedometer and tach. I entertained the idea of installing Dakota digital gauges , but they are pretty salty. I instead went for the relocation route.

this might clear up a couple things,
sheepshagger. Noun. (plural sheepshaggers) (UK, slang) A man who engages in or is said to engage in sexual intercourse with sheep; usually used as a slur for a rural person seen as unsophisticated.

i have a feeling its the second definition he is going by...(i hope)

... in sexual intercourse with sheep; ...

You know when you use that terminology it implies, I realize it doesn't have to, mutual participation.  I just have a hard time envisioning a female sheep with her upper legs lovingly embracing a male human during this activity.

I was just wondering if it is in any way pleasurable for the sheep.   ???

 Grin Willow, I have never given you much credit, but you can be one funny guy.  Grin
If someone likes to participate in sexual actions with a sheep, what business of ours is it?
We do have laws about that here in the US. Though not inforced because who would want to be the cop that has to tell all his buddies he arrested a guy for shaggin a sheep.  Grin

Well,  it would be a little more morally accepted if it were to be a female.

Sheep are kind of cute but it's hard to get lipstick on them. And, you have to tip them over to kiss them.

Two cowboys meet up in the wilderness of the Old West, where one says to the other,

"Where are you from partner"

to which he replies, "I'm from Montana, where men are men,women are scarce, and the Sheep, are lying little tramps!"

Just saying! (Minor hijack here!)

Yes.  I do bear a light sense of guilt for that.  I feel that I should apologize, but unfortunately since the incident I just don't have it in me.   Wink
