    Like, so many.
    That's interesting. I've actually seen a lot of built X Terras around here. I wonder if that's a local trend.

    @Sandytaco14 rode home basically the whole way with this guy, and literally he was the most respectful motorcycle driver ever. Not saying others aren't, but usually they seem to be avoiding cars so badly that they drive poorly. He stuck with me and even helped me merge in traffic lol. Made me think...hm wonder if Andy is like this? Also it was a pretty sweet ducatti.

    My previous truck was an 04 Frontier DCLB. Nothing fancy, but I hauled a lot of stuff in it. It wasn't nearly as nice my Taco though. I just couldn't afford one at the time. Those Pro 4X models seem to do pretty well though. TFL Truck has dome some reviews and I want to say the Nissan came out on top in at least some of them. They haven't changed much in a decade though.

    I try to let people in and all of that if they are signalling and being respectful of me. Most of the time that isn't the case though.

    People don't do that for other people in cars. Why on Earth would they do it for bikes...:confused:

    I try to for everybody on the road if they aren't being oblivious, like people that put blinkers on but then don't look over to see that you are waving them over...i give them some time but them I'll just blast past them because they held me up for no reason.

    @h.zack801 @tweakit88

    Thanks for trying to help me figure this out!

    I notice it loses power when smoking, I get nothing out of the pedal after a little bit. I have not seen any low oil pressure lights come on though. I've had those come on if I am angled and get out to take pics. Only happened a couple of times, but they go away once it's leveled back out.

    I am trying to figure out how to explain what is happening to the tech when I take it in.

    Don't know if this will help or not, I wasn't there when it happened but maybe there's something helpful in here https://www.yotatech.com/forums/f123/need-advice-white-smoke-knocking-74788/

    If it rains one day but not the other, we do it on the rainy day. If both are the same, Sunday is fine.

    I'd cut the video to when it started smoking. Not the slider bouncing part. There are 2 asphalt hills in Guntersville that would replicate it if it is just a matter of angle and applying throttle.

    Hmm this would be very interesting test. The angle is the problem. I had about the same angle at the slab when it happened.
