The Flabside has evidently been delayed--my deposite check was returned (dam*, I was looking forward to having a permanently mounted window tray attached with matching turned aluminum milkshake mixing container).
I understand from totally unreliable sources (ie., the management of Road Serpents) that a special model of the current model was on the drawing boards--called the "Original Gashole Special". The only major difference is that it has a large bore central exhaust with a single pipe. The outlet is really unique in that it remains closed until the motor is started, and then opens in a sphinter-like manner, emiting a rather humanoid exhaust "rap" due to careful tuning of the glasspack. Understand the sound it projects cannot be mistaken for anything else.
