Title: I'd just like to know..........
Post by: balibeemer on July 10, 2009, 11:16:57 AM: How many Beemer riders are lefties - The reason I ask is that all the guys in my village who ride BMW R 25's, 26's & 27's are all left-handed. 4 of them!( used to be 5 until I got my R 65)

Post by: Justin B. on July 10, 2009, 11:48:36 AM: Please explain how that after you got your R65 the number of Beemer riders decreased by one. Did you beat up one of the other Beemer riders and take the R65 away from him? :-?

Ya'll are just lookin' for trouble, right? ::)

;D

Post by: aussie on July 20, 2009, 03:48:36 AM: The mind boggles as to what you may actually use this information for....are you going to be writing another disseratation about bikes?

And I'm with Justin - I'm still a little mystified about the fact that having bought the R65, the number of left handed BMW riders decreased by one - but then again, Math was never my strong suit. Oh yeah Aida - I guess that makes sense - I seem to remember bb had one of those bikes - but again - I'm with Justin.....

Fotunately I'm only an engineer. ::)

Only joking....

He specifically mentioned BMW R 25's, 26's & 27's - not BMW riders in general. So if he had an R25 as one of the 5 riders of those specific BMWs, and he traded it for an R65, then there would be 4 riders of the R2x series and 1 rider of the R65...still 5 BMW riders, but not 5 'guys in my village who ride BMW R 25's, 26's & 27's'. ::)

Geesh....you'd think an engineer would catch that... ;)

Yes, I agree with Justin as well...can you ever have too many?

Post by: steve hawkins on July 22, 2009, 07:04:40 AM: I am right handed but left footed. Does that mean I am weird?

I the Gene therapists get their way, I should have been shot at birth...or before even.

Post by: Semper Gumby on July 24, 2009, 12:01:51 PM: Yesh! Since I have both I guess that makes me ambidextrous. (You have think before you shift).
Title: Re: I'd just like to know..........
Post by: montmil on July 24, 2009, 02:52:37 PM: I asked one of the neighborhood kids if he was ambidextrous.

He replied that, "No. I have both a mother and a father."
