  1. I would get rid of it too. You're putting a lot of money into your car to make it fast on the strip. You could take a fraction of that money and do it with a bike. Whens the last time you had it out running the way you wanted it?
  2. ^^^ I'm going to this guy to get my bike tuned when I go.
  3. They have those shirts at waterbeds n' stuff by the way. Had some high school girl pull halfway into the road and almost pulled right out in front of me in my lane.
  4. Got out for a good 40 minutes, hopefully tomorrow gets that much more warm and I can go a bit longer before my finger tips freeze.
  5. Take the MSF. I wish I would have taken it last season before I started riding. I feel like I missed out on some key beginner things by just going out and learning from a friend.
  6. I've been looking at getting an integrated tail light but I'm noticing a HUGE price difference between these two brands. I'm all about saving money, but not if it means I can't be seen at night. Anyone have any experience with the two? http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/tg/detail/-/B002DHEF9K/ref=ord_cart_shr?_encoding=UTF8&m=A1NRKYHIBGQVVC&v=glance
  7. The 765T has everything the zumo550 has, just no gas estimate and no XM. The zumo 660 seems like a good buy and is cheaper than the 550 but it seems to be more problematic right now.
  8. I've been looking at a GPS for the bike, and went through the "How to Mount" thread and there isn't any info on what GPS are good to use on a bike. It seems that there are really only two that are made specifically for bikes and they are 5x as expensive as car GPS. I think the main reason for this is the waterproof requirements they meet and they also are built to accept vibrations a little bit better. I'm really looking at the Garmin Zumo 550 but I can't bring myself to spend 500 on a GPS. It offers blue tooth hook up. Can hold up to a 4gb SD card to store music on. Has voice commands, which will cut off the music to let you know what street is next. It also has a fuel gauge to let you know when you're getting closer to empty and will re-route you to the closest gas station available. The Tom Tom Rider 2 is another GPS I was looking at but it doesn't seem to get very good reviews for the price. I've also seen the Garmin Zumo 440, and the Quest and Quest 2. One thing the bike specified GPS claim to do is allow for larger buttons and have the touch screen work for the rider wearing gloves. What do you use, or what do you recommend? Is the 500 dollars for a Zumo 550 worth all the money or would something else suffice?
  9. You can get a Bell Star for around 150 now depending on the graphic design.
  10. It has to be inspected and considered legal for ohio roads. You might have to make an appointment with the SHP like you do for salvage titles.
  11. Your temps do expire after one year. I just had to get mine renewed.
  12. 170 OBO. Make some offers. Looking to get my money for school rounded up.
  13. This seems like the best way to go for me. I don't feel like spending the cash on a fender eliminator kit, and once you can get the rear blinkers taken care of it's a piece of cake. Just need to find one with bright enough lights.
  14. Not meaning to thread jack but I've been looking at doing something like this as well for my rear turn signals on my 07sv650s. I found an integrated tail light system on EBAY. Would it just plug right in? Anyone have any suggestions on which route to take while doing this to my bike? I want my mudflap gone and integrated tails seems to be the best way to go.
  15. Will you have these available throughout the season?
  16. Interested in any trades? I've got a 38-40us Icon Motorhead Jacket. It's brand new with the tags on it, only tried it on in my house and it was just a tad bit big.
  17. Mmmm, this is on my birthday and it's the weekend of ComFest. Might just do this to fill in my day.
  18. Finished product w/ the clear coat. Again, thanks Reimbrandt. Nice meeting you again.
  19. Started looking for a bike and everyone said the SV was a great starter bike so I started searching for those. Found a deal on craigslist for an 07sv650s and snagged it up. Garaged up.
  20. Looks like you had fun over the weekend. Have fun putting it all back together. That'd be the part I hated the most.
  21. I think it's something we definitely need to have.

  23. Finally, only the first two classes filled up on me and I tried to register last night but got error after error after error.
  24. I've been getting an ERROR message every single time I try to register.
