912’s were underrated. Handled better than 911’s and IIRC had shorter wheelbase and less tendency to understeer into phone poles and swimming pools. Always wanted one!!

Sirhr
All 911 and 912 model shared the same wheelbase. That was increased for the 1970 model year, the same year the 912 was dropped and the 914 was introduced. Believe or not, the 912 actually outsold the 911 the first couple of years of production

Story time:

You ever had a feeling that something bad is about to happen......

I was on my motorcycle going home from work. It had rained early that morning, but it had quit and the streets started to dry out. I come around the turn and in front of me is a truck pulling a hay trailer. One of these guys.

View attachment 8249901

One bail did not look quite right. Now round bails are real heavy, and wet round bails weigh a fooking ton. Something told me to back way off. Road is real curvy so I can't pass...double yellow. Hay is blowing off the bails, and it can find the only exposed skin, my neck and they kinda hurts.

I am a ways back cars behind me get pissy and pass me, about 30 sec later off with the bail. Car slams on the brake but boink into the bail. A bail that has been done with a good bailer is hard as a brick. The trailer did not stop...guess he never knew. I stop still all the motorcycle gear on, get my cell phone and make a call. About this time Mrs. Idiot comes out and I know that look. Quickly I take off the helmet and unzip my jacket, I am still wearing a shoot me first shirt and she freezes. Move out of the road mam, in front of the hay bail, I am on the phone with the office. She does what she is told, and the troops show up in short order, I am under 5min from the office just outside of town. Car is leaking, Anyone else in the car......no......excuse me I did not hear you.....NO, ok you hurt, NO. OK.

Got home a bit late that day, and Mrs. Idiot learned a thing or two about farm equipment.

It's a Bale of hay. Hay is in Bales unless it's getting out of jail.... :LOL:
