I was thinking that an avatar based on this picture would go nicely with my member id. Anyone we know?

One of "...those guys..."
If it was thirty years ago, and a Honda CB360, then it was me.
...don't recall sidebags on the ol' 360 though...

With all due respect to our esteemed admin...Sorry, if it was a 120 at 3500 it might have been me, but my 80s are anodized red.
Do you just go deeper or are you a heavy breather?
Sorry, just had to ask.

Yanking your chain a bit. It's too frickin' cold up here to stay in the water for a big tank.
However, I have dove with them before in Cozumel at an operation that was about uncattle boat as I've seen. Deep profiles, computers required, and was more like a multi-waypoint bombing run that required a slate to keep it all straight. The steel was much more neutral coming back up when empty too. Those DIN setups are spiffy.
Actually, when I go diving on the FJR I've had the good fortune of having a chase vehicle to carry my gear.

That was exactly what I was thinking.
I have not used the big tanks - just 72s and 80s. We mostly do reef and wall diving with 60' to 100' profiles. I will typically get an hour on an 80 and I am ready for the sun and a Corona by then.

During the '60s ISDT wars, competing factories (Jawa/CZ, MZ, others) supplied compressed air bottles about the size of a salami in the tool kits for the riders.
Being able to successfully repair a flat tire/s during the 6-day race can be pivotal to the outcome.
