  1. i also enjoyed watching 3 episodes of powering up for a spirit bomb. no, really. i could empathize cause it was like the one time i ate Brazilian bbq half the day while competing with my friend who played football in college. a few hours after i woke up from my coma, i just fucking spirit bombed that toilet after a long battle with my bowels. i even did the manly screaming while everyone around the world gave up just a bit of their powers so i could force the cosbys into the pool.

    48÷2(9+3)=?

    i'll see your math/engineer friend with a masters/phd in whatever the fuck with a
  3. i'll be on dunflops Q2 or pilot power 2ct (depending on which bike i ride). rains are unnecessary for a novice day... but hell, if you got them, use them. i'm trying to remain optimistic about the weather.
  4. round eyes will never understand.
  5. my dad cleans cobra pits with his bare hands (and maybe a broom, if he's in a hurry) and is chuck norris's cousin.
  6. do you guys carry the gopro HD motorsports kits?

    Openoffice.org

    openoffice lets you save your files as .doc and .xls (and many others, depending on what you're doing) format, so it should work unless you start getting into fancy stuff within the document... then it might not all show up. if you're doing all that, just cough up the cash for the "real" thing.
  8. well, i'd probably beg craig to meet him or something for me and give it to me at nelson sometime since he lives close to midvale. he will make me grovel for his help since he is a merciless bastard.
  9. the sad truth of the matter is, you'll never get your money back for what you "invest" in your bike. that said, if the policy coverage for those parts is "cost to replace" then all you should need to do is give them receipts for all that stuff and they should just give you what you paid. If it's "market value" then you are shit out of luck. sorry to hear about your bike.
  10. it's ALWAYS tentacles. sometimes, a sentient fish penis.
  11. if you sell the front to brian, i would take the rear. just let me know what the price would be.

  13. then you're not required to do all that stuff if you don't want to. here is the motoseries requirements page (I thought it was posted before? maybe not): http://www.motoseries.com/trackday_info.htm specifically, for novice: Remove or tape your mirrors and turn signals Tape your headlight lens if it is made of glass Tape your brake lights Tape your speedometer (Instructional Group Only) New-er "track day" or High Performance Street compound tires are recommended with no pronounced flat spots or irregular wear. Anything that can be an entanglement or impalement hazard should be removed (non folding rear passenger pegs, stunt cages/bars, spike bar ends) now, if you want to do all the wiring, coolant, etc etc stuff anyway, it certainly doesn't hurt... but it is not required. especially if you're not sure how often you'll be doing track days/racing. pm me if you have any more questions. prepping for a novice day is VERY hassle free.
  14. are you running novice or intermediate (open) or advanced or race school? if you're running novice, you don't "have" to (it is recommended) do any of those things.
  15. any track noob that doesn't have gauntlet gloves, and have tiny little hands like me can use these: they're not fancy, but they're basically brand new and should get you by til you get some decent racing gloves. they are size small. I bought them years ago, and I found them buried under a pile of other crap. Hope to see some of you there!
  16. hmmmmmmmmm, lemme see how ballz deep in trouble i'll be for throwing in a surprise track day this/next month. also, i'll check if the weather looks promising.
  17. next question: what is dragon ballz?
  18. this post is meaningless without factoring in a 98 gsxr750.
  19. it's probably sailor moon porn. the next frame is tentacles.

    it's 2 or 288 depending on which virgin you ask.
  21. now that you're not in mortal peril from a deformed brain, we can troll you mercilessly again, am i right?
  22. exactly. or, if you're really that worried, trailer it to a private parking lot, and do some screwing around on it.
  23. step 1: go to your local motorcycle gear store that carries at least a couple major brands. most will carry astars and maybe even sidi. try on a couple different boots, and you should write down the numbers (along with model of the boots) that fit best. if you try on a sidi mid level boot, the racing boots will probably fit the same. hell, i just took the sizing info from my puma sneakers and ordered my puma racing boots and they fit perfectly. obviously, trying on the ones you are going to buy is the best method, but there is nothing wrong with well educated guesses. this applies for all gear purchases. once you have that sizing info, get online, search ridemerchant, weraclassifieds, 2ontrack, and search google for: site:craigslist.org boots (or gloves, condoms, lube, etc) buy them used to save a bunch of money, but make sure you see good pics first. good luck out there!
  24. can't you just ride it up and down your neighborhood a couple times and see if it improves?
