  1. Except these aren't kids, they are adults, and it sounded pretty violent to me. Please be aware that in our modern technological age, that the internet can be automatically searched and recorded for use later. Not that the entire internet isn't recorded anyway, but certain parts are flagged and filed. A variety of federal, state, and local laws prohibit making certain statements whether in jest or otherwise. Not that there isn't better things to do, but eventually all things we do in our lives come back to us. That is where it started, after all...
  2. Indeed hard to choose... And this will just make it worse. Reviews of motorcycle clothing; http://www.webbikeworld.com/Motorcycle-clothing/Motorcycle-clothing.htm I had to use the search to find the Blaster jacket review; http://www.webbikeworld.com/r3/joe-rocket-jacket/joe-rocket-blaster-jacket.htm; And the Fieldsheer Razor isn't there, only other; http://www.webbikeworld.com/r2/fieldsheer/ good luck

Some might still be available that way. Probably in computer *.AVI format. They are out there somewhere.
  4. ah yes, epidemic ignorance... we need a vaccine for that...
  5. I originally asked why switch to 520, other than the weight savings. I never thought about there being more choices in gearing (or sprocket types, or chain) with the 520. You pointed it out. You get the cookie.
  6. The guys at work were talking about not being able to find ammo. Some of them are a bit excitable, but it's about what I expected. Demand exceeding supply. They are saying that a lot of ammo sizes and/or brands are gone. Both in stores and on-line. And prices are going up. It's happened before in the past. Anybody else seeing this?
  7. but but... it doesn't say who introduced it. How do we know it was Republican? Don't forget that the current Congress is split between liberal and not so liberal Democratic party individuals.
  8. Nobody voted for it? Personally, I think the originators of this initiative had hookers on the mind, is all. If they had named it "Runaway Recovery", it would have had the same effect on the street, and everyone would have voted for it.
  9. So I guess that's 6 Fridays in a row, and three more to go after today.
  10. Switching gearing then, k... but... 530 chain is anywhere from 21% to 44% stronger than the 520... race track stuff, I see that...
  11. Yes, and they will all be riding little scooters and bicycles in mass quantities. I've already seen it overseas in Asia, years ago. And more recently, in Europe. This guy (and others) needs to see the world for what it really is and really will be. The future is not Utopia.edit: Think more like BladeRunner...
  12. I hate to ask, but... why do people switch from 530 to 520? I figure it's the weight savings. Both 530 and 520 have the same dimensions, except for the width of chain and sprockets. Same side plates on the links, in other words, but narrower rollers on the 520. Curious Cat
  13. yeah, Farmers Only been running on the wee hours infomercials. Fine Print Note: Sheep may not apply...
  14. 2000 CBR 600; pg 5-20 & 5-21 of the shop manual Remove the three screws and the vacuum chamber cover. As the compression spring is very long, it will jump out of the carburetor when the cover is removed. Remove the compression spring and diaphragm/vacuum piston from the carburetor body. screw one of the vacuum chamber cover (4mm) screws into the jet needle holder. Pull the screw and remove the jet needle holder from the vacuum piston. Be careful not to damage the diaphragm. CAUTION: Do not remove the jet needle holder by pushing the jet needle. Remove the spring, jet needle and washer from the vacuum piston. Check the jet needle for stepped wear. Check the vacuum piston for wear and damage. Check the diaphragm for pin holes, deterioration or damage. Note: Air leaks out of the vacuum chamber if the diaphragm is damaged in any way, even a pin hole.

  16. get a grip, it's water.... it goes up... it goes down... always has, and always will.
  17. Reminds me of the time I cut the tip of one finger off...oops. It grew back. Fingerprint was not the same anymore though.
  18. Repost, but that's ok, the original I posted was lost in the crash. And the pics/posters of her I had, were lost in the re-structure of pics storage....
  19. BreadCat says....WHAT!!!!!!
  20. I take back the idea of only one pitch used on a motorcycle. Some bolts are sometimes different, for a reason. Like I said, have to check first. Typical "fine" metric thread used like on a Flange Hex machine screw (bolt) typical of a headbolt, etc; M5x.8mm M6x1mm M8x1.25mm M10x1.5mm M12x1.75mm M16x2mm Typical "coarse" metric thread used like on a standard hex machine screw(bolt), typical of a body part, etc; M5x.8mm M6x1mm M7x1.25mm M8x1.5mm M10x1.75mm M12x2mm M14x2.5mm M16x3mm Typical metric thread for phillips panhead and allen head machine screws; M5x1mm M6x1.25mm M8x1.5mm and variations of anything, who knows... lots of variations for special. note: a screw is a fastener threaded all the way up near the top, a bolt has a shank of unthreaded shaft, used for shear applications. But not everyone or every hardware catalog will agree with that. edit: it was late, so I make this clear. This list is typical of what would be found in a local hardware store. It won't be exactly what is found on a motorcycle. I don't think the pan head screws would have a different thread than the bolts. On a motorcycle all the thread types would be the same almost everywhere. I don't really remember finding mixed thread types for an individual size of screw or bolt.
  21. yeah, pitch gauge, very useful. I sometimes cheat and get out the tap and die set to match them up, heh. edit: I don't mean re-cut them! I mean use them to check the pitch!
  22. Perhaps I should have made clear that the increase in wages that housing stays equivalent with is simply a cost of living increase. Meaning that a house is worth a house, on average. It is not, or seldom will be, an investment. It can be, and will be, a tax write-off. Don't get me wrong, I would enjoy a house myself, regardless.
  23. The thread pitch will vary depending on the size (diameter) of the screw or bolt. There isn't a standard thread pitch in metric, like there is in SAE (24-coarse or 32-fine). If you see a 7mm or 8mm bolt with a 1.00 pitch, and a 7mm or 8mm bolt with a 1.25 pitch, it's because the metric standards had some mechanical errors when first developed, and had to be corrected. *cough* Last time I checked, there are over a dozen (more like 20) current metric standards for threads, versus one SAE standard. I'm guessing at 7mm or 8mm, because I think that's the one with the 10mm wrench head, that got changed. Old motorcycles will have the old standard pitch, and new motorcycles will have the new standard pitch. Supposedly the screw and/or bolt heads that have the little dot on them, are the new ones. But it's not always there. There are common standards, and I'm going to try and find a simple chart... (pause for googling...) ok, this will have to do, it's sorted by Tensile Strength: http://euler9.tripod.com/bolt-database/23.html It mixes in SAE, but look at the adjacent SAE equivalents, and see that typically a 24 thread per inch is coarse thread, and a 32 thread per inch is a fine thread. The metric equivalents do not use two standards. Instead each metric size is a strength equivalent. So the metric pitch could be anything. Did this make sense? Yes, there are a lot of odd sized metric threads that will not work for your motorcycle. So be careful, when matching and using metric hardware. edit: ok, I like this chart better; http://www.carrlane.com/Catalog/index.cfm/29425071F0B221118070C1C513906103E0B05543B0B012009083C3B285357474A2D020609090C0015312A36515F554A5B Notice that per ISO/ANSI metric standards, there are additional thread pitch available for some diameters. Having two pitches for one diameter in metric, satisfys the strength requirements when trying to handle both coarse and fine equivalents. It's not likely that you would find them mixed on a motorcycle, unless it's a component that was manufactured by a sub-contractor.
