  1. juuuuuuuuuuuust kidding, nice pics, as usual!
  2. that's some good advertising for DGM photography
  3. the timing for this thread was, by the way, impeccable. head over this way if you have some input for me. http://ohioriders.net/index.php?/topic/102561-shiny-bits-for-bikes/
  4. So, I'm not sure how many of you know this, but I'm in the job shop/contract CNC machining business. I primarily focus on military small arms components, but I've been getting more and more inclined to diversify to other industries (medical, aerospace, commercial firearms, etc) and one of those is aftermarket for bikes and possibly cars if I ever fall in love with a car again. Hard to go back to cars after having so much fun with bikes, though. Anyway, I want to take a stab at making bike aftermarket goodies, and having researched the Grom since they were announced, I think that might be a good bike to start on. Reasons being: it's new to the states, just released and starting to be delivered. cheap and accessible. just has a very "fun" and "hooligan" type attitude about it which I think is breeding grounds for people wanting to blow stupid money on a cheap bike. If you disagree, don't hold back. I want to know what you think. What I really want to know is, what kind of bike parts do YOU think would be good to make? I can make just about anything, but I want to focus on machined from billet components (that could be anodized or painted or powdercoated or bukkake-ed whatever). Fire away. Also, if you are involved with a shop that needs CNC work done, that wouldn't hurt either lol. i always have room for more work.

  7. If I end up picking up a grom, I might start going to these. Can I do these on the scooter?
  8. 1. excellent write up! i will stop by my local honda dealer to see if they have one i can sit on/ride 2. BRING IT ONNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNNN zuma ain't scurred!
  9. speaking of which, i see videos online of people riding and talking on their bikes, and their voice comes in surprisingly clear even at speed. what setup are they using to film that? do they have a go pro and a mic wired into their helmet or something?

  11. mmmmmm... maybe i'll buy this one, put blue stickers on it and throw it off a cliff, too.
  12. more proof that the scooter haters are complete bitches
  13. I bought a 5.11 one from some website for $5. They go on clearance every once in a while.
  14. follow the links:http://www.washingtonpost.com/world/national-security/nsa-broke-privacy-rules-thousands-of-times-per-year-audit-finds/2013/08/15/3310e554-05ca-11e3-a07f-49ddc7417125_story.html the NSA (and almost certainly, other federal intelligence and law enforcement entities) routinely and clearly breaches the 4th amendment. the "court" that hands out the warrants to this raping of our constitution like candy knows this and allows it wholesale. is ANYONE in this forum ok with this? why?
  15. take pics for those of us who weren't able to make it to indy. maybe have them stand next to you so we can see them in scale.
  16. would you say it's more like an R1 of guns, or a gsxr 750 of guns?
  17. i already said this on facebook, but congrats! hope you'll bring the little fella to the track sometime
