  1. i like this guy already
  2. if anyone decides to buy a set, let me know and i'll split the shipping with you. i'd like to buy a set for the 1125CR.
  3. since you're here, would you mind doing a little QA? we can do PM's if you prefer. i had just gotten a set of your brake lines as well as a set of SBK5/XBK5 pads (these were ordered through STG who I'm guessing ordered from you? I'm not sure how the whole thing works) and was wondering if the SBK or XBK pads had any such issues that you knew of? I'm a mid pack intermediate rider, which is why many people suggested I go with the SBK's instead of the c44/c55's. Also, are there any differences between an SBK5 and XBK5? thanks for your time
  4. this is what happens when you give applications engineers too much free time.
  5. we'll have to make you a special one, since even i've never seen a black labia engulfed in righteous hellfire. in fact, i'll do some research right now. fap fap fap fap fap fap fap fap
  6. believe me, there are few out there in this world that are as skeered of riding on the street as me. but if you can point which direction to go to, i'll be happy to lead as long as you promise not to yell at me for getting us lost or going too slow.
  7. oh, that's not creepy at all.
  8. one could simply do the buffalo bill dance when said intruder starts his forced entry at least, that's what she said
  9. if you can remember some good roads out near mentor and etc, let me know. i'd love to be able to get a quick fix if i dont feel like riding all the way down south past canton to get together with some schmucks who ride like a bunch of cunts on fire. also, send me a PM or something if you do head out this way and want some company. i might be able to break away and get on a ride, at least for a little while. If you are itching for a full day of riding, you're welcome to come ride with me down there along with the forementioned flaming vaginas. there are proper roads down there (well, about as proper as it gets around here). it's a good way to rack up the miles on the bike.
  10. i follow the rules of: break into groups if necessary the "new" group should have at least 1 experienced person in it, leading the ride at a pace with the newbies in mind. for me, at least, it was already terrifying to be riding roads that had more turns than the on ramp (on ramps were already scary enough). to have to lead the group.... that would've been lame. for me, since it's uber scary to ride a road that you know nothing about, but also for everyone else who already know the road in varying degrees and can safely get through them at varying speeds. all that time, "ride your own pace" might be hammered into everyone (at least, everyone who needed it to be pounded into them. at least, that's what she said). rules change for every group ride depending on what the group is consisting of, but the basics should remain the same: experienced rider(s) out front and at least 1 experienced rider leading the newbs. so, if there are only 3 riders, and 1 is new, then maybe 1 guy goes off to have fun if they are so inclined, and 1 stays with the new guy. more often not, everyone will stick together in that scenario, but shouldn't be required. but that's just my opinion, not a mandate.
  11. i was talking about mentor and painesville area roads. there are good ones around here? i tried to find them but failed.
  12. mentor is nice but about 30 min away. ask me how i know. tremont is a nice and interesting area, so is lakewood and is closer. parts of cleveland heights are pretty nice. it all depends on what kind of environment you're looking for. if you're looking for safety, go with mentor/eastlake/willoughby. if you're looking interesting, go with the others. as far as the cleveland haters, what a bunch of bores.
  13. mine sticks out like my eyeballs are wearing sweat pants.
  14. i wonder how much that KN filter costs for 03 600rr. may call them this week.
  15. like, when you go to hug people, do people say, "are those your malformed eye balls, or are you just happy to see me"?
  16. but for the rest of us none freakishly thin cornea'd people, we can get perfect vision with the surgery. actually, i don't know if i can since i have pretty bad astigmatism.
  17. yeah, except in a real free market, the gov doesn't tamper with the economy one way or the other by fisting the anus that makes up a large portion of expenses called healthcare. but i guess what you're saying would make sense if it made sense. but it doesn't, comrade. heh heh. i just wanted to say "comrade" at the end of a petulant retort. i would never suggest you're a socialist or communist, even if you say so about my ideas.
  18. the thing that worries me is that this has happened in multiple instances. after a certain number of failures from a "bad batch", shouldn't they at least put out a bulletin on their website or something saying "if your pads were from batch #XXXX, please do not use them and exchange them for batches #xxxx"? i'd imagine they're a large enough manufacturer to have traceability to at least that extent. shit, if they're TS certified, they should have a giant hair fist up their ass from 3rd party inspectors going ape shit on their certification.
  19. if i found out my expenses were projected to suddenly increase by 1%, i'd shit bigger brix than if i saw james earl jones in my toilet. cause in reality (in this given example), my net is taking a hit of 4.5% i have no love for AT&T, and i like key things about this legislation (not how it was jammed in without the lube of the constitution, but nonetheless), but don't try to play down the impact this will have on the economy. this is just one company with a healthy net income. what about a struggling medium sized business, just barely getting by due to the shit economy? how about a small business that used to do automotive work? you think they'll be pleased it was "just 1%"?
