  1. not a 350 twin frame. i have a cb350f frame but it does not have a title pure parts bike not a clue on the pipes. from what i hear the 350 was the highest selling bike in us history. so i imagine everybody and their brother was making parts for them at some point or another good luck with the cafe theme i tried and got a rat instead. you might try the rice paddy they have parts bikes from time to time might have a title
  2. i hate cagers who almost side swipe a bike when changing lanes then stop at a light and yell at the biker for being on the road. i think that car spent the next half hour stuck behind the slowest car in the world that he could not seem to pass.
  3. it depends a traditional rat bike is a bike that over the course of its life has been coxed to continue rolling by the cheapest most creative means possible. this does not mean riding a bike that does not run well it means that instead of buy a oem part you use a monster can (super props there) because it works just as well and does not cost you a dime because you already paid for the can. my 350f is not a rat bike in the traditional sense. it is a wanna be. i had a parts bike and it was in bad shape so i took what parts i could and rust converted them. then matted them out and replaced the nice shinny chrome bits on the good bike. so it is more of a matte bike than a rat bike.
  4. funny fuzzy bunny funny, did you ever get the rest of the mud off your bike?
  5. nope no t-shirt just pissed off. that is one thing i want to avoid by taking care of my bikes. plus since i didn't make it i can only give credit to the rodents who have probably climbed on every bike they sell on a side not i am kinda pissed my spare tank surprised me with a lovely rust varnish oil sludge mix when i hit the reserve so i am rebuilding the carbs, and going back to the pretty tank. i hope to have some pics up tomorrow once i get some new pod filters.
  6. puppy mills = bad missing the point that they should have hobbled the horses or you know put the brake on. = worse cagers are cagers even if its only 2 horsepower
  7. fucking goat fed mice larva piss
  8. i am in the process of rating out my old 350f any others here ratting out their bike or have a bike that ended turning into a rat when you were not looking?
  9. if anyone is ever at walmart check out the 5 dollar dvd rack. if you look closely you will find about 4 or 5 street bike stunting dvds.
  10. fair or foul i am on my bike, but if no one shows i may just cruise
  11. here is a bad picture of my old 250 with the lights on it. i think i only spent 30 bucks to get 2 11-12 inch sections a 3 footer and a 6 inch. of their waterproof led strips.
  12. ok i am going to pimp out my source. i have ordered some pretty nice stuff from and i kid you not www.besthongkong.com they are cheap for the most part and their stuff is not bad. if anyone wants to see it i have some 12 inch strips on my sv and i would be glad to show them at a QSL. also i have a long strip (about 3 feet that took forever to get i am not using and may part with). i did have to wire up mu own fuse and swith but a 10 dollar run to the radio shack can fix that in most cases
  13. heal fast and the best of luck finding a new bike when you are back up on 2 wheels
  14. oh and i know the speed factory and have been there a few times. i can say that they were very helpful and very courteous. i needed a part for an older vespa and they got me in contact with a person out in California. i know if i am ever in the market for a scooter i will be going there.
  15. ha i just thought of it forget Mice Burner my bike airbox is the ultimate rodent port-o-john. on second thought Mice Burner sounds better. i wouldn't call it cheap unless you top off a two liter for the road.
  16. anyone know a good place for genuine Suzuki accessories i am looking to try and pick up the rear hugger and gel seat, but not sure if anyone will give me a deal
  17. listen i could go on and on about the problems i had with the way the sold me the bike. but here is the bottom line. Hind's does not care about the product they sell they only care that they sell it. i had a good salesperson the first time i went there and that is why i went back. it is a shame that they made no concessions about anything that they did that made my purchasing experience a bad one. in the end it was only the fact that Suzuki stepped up and with the help of another dealer did i get my bikes issues sorted out. but all i can think of when i look back at the HIND'S EXPERIENCE is when the owner says its my fault my bike had a mice nest in it because i bought a brand new (0 mile) 06 model and if i had bought a new 07 or 08 i might not have had this problem.
  18. i am going. i am hoping to find some spare parts for the old honda's. come on fork bridge clamp for a cb350f
  19. good luck with the 250. i still miss mine
  20. i can not complain about their parts department. they were very helpful when i was shopping there and got the parts in a timely fashion. however their online parts department left me with a bad impression. it took them two weeks before they even processed the order then i go to pick up the parts and they cant find half the order. i stood around for half an hour then left. they did give me a t shirt and overnight me the parts when they found them but by then it was to late for the trip.
  21. i know that one, last time i called the first person i talked to told me that the person i wanted was not in that day. so i called back and asked for the owner and sure enough that person was in. ended up hinds also swapped my battery for a non factory one before they gave it to me. found that one out when the cables did not mount to the battery properly. i mean sure it worked but it wasn't right on a brand new bike.
  22. i guess it makes sense why there was a cat always sitting near my bike in the mornings
  23. well i am calling it a mice burner now. i would have liked to know at least i would have fed the little guys.
