Chapter 11 provides for restructuring under protection of the court. Chapter 7 is liquidation. Just stay on top of them and you should be ok. I think it was their electric vehicle venture that did them in, not the seat business.

Progressing nicely. I got my Leo Vince X3 Exhaust. Waiting on the PCIII usb. I am waiting to unpack the exhaust when I get the PCIII. I am also waiting for my license plate as my current one expired yesterday. So, luckily it is 37°F this morning. I probably will put the pipe on today if I get time after work. I am working through the weekend, so there isn't much time. The exhaust requires the tank off, so does the PCIII, so I will probably wait. We shall see.

My guess is taking the tank off is a snap, though I've never fiddled with the FI varity of the bike. IIRC on my husqvarna it required removal of one phillips head screw and the rad shrouds (and of course one fuel line).

A Kourier has to establish space on the pavement. Predictable law-abiding behaviour lulls drivers. They mentally assign you to a little box in the lane, assume you will stay there, can't handle it when you leave that little box.
Y.T. is not fond of boxes. Y.T. establishes her space on the pavement by zagging mightily from lane to lane, establishing a precedent of scary randomness. Keeps people on their toes, makes them react to her, instead of the other way round.
