  2. well thats assuming the tradition scale where 10 = perfection most people now-a-days use the modified 10 scale where 10 = out of my league
  3. its cool. I'm originally from Kettering, we're much more classy there... or well some of us are. If I didn't already have a bajillion things to do I'd swing by there for a little bit. Wish I could go
  4. like I said on the first page, I'm a fan, but I'm not a mid-night showing fan-boy. So what if I own all the books
  5. fify. Its kinda insulting to call Kettering "Dayton"
  6. no such thing was in the owner's manual
  7. WhoDey, I think I found some HP nerds to beat up. You know he'll be in a HP t-shirt at the very least & Jess will dress as Hermione
  8. I gotta keep the old numbers in my phone so I know not to answer
  9. I just thought it was odd that they left it so open to interpretation - "half throttle". My owners manual said keep it under 4500 rpm. I know they can't do that because it doesn't have a tach, but I would have thought they would have been a little more specific or have a more accurate method devised yeah, its some BS. He is 21, has a clean record as far as I know. I don't think he even has a single speeding ticket. He is paying 370, 380/year or somethin in that range for the GZ
  10. head cams would be perfect... we all need tinted visors too
  11. I was thinking everyone approach an intersection (with traffic cam) from different directions and everyone shut off their bikes and just sit
  12. nice deception... a pic of all (3) the OR girls
  13. I thought the point of the prepaid debit card was to avoid those bullshit fees (ie overdraft).. so they're still doing the same bullshit with prepaid debit cards?
  14. can I come too? I'll bring some Lord Voldemort shirts for us to wear!!
  15. A buddy of mine just got his first bike, a GZ250. He was going to go Ninja250, but insurance was F'ed up at over $1000/year. I think insurance prices have sky rocketed with them getting popular AND being a beginner bike that gets dropped left, right, and down. A GZ: I'm posting this screen shot of the GZ, well because I think someone made a typo... So break-in for this guy says to not take it above half throttle for the first 500 miles, and then not above 3/4 throttle until 1000 miles. Compared to sport bikes that seem rather un-scientific... is break-in not as significant on these little guys? Anyhow, I rode it home for him and even keeping it at "half throttle" through the gears it was a lot more fun than I expect. Definitely a different riding experience and a lot more forgiving than any sportbike I've been on. I felt super low to the ground, and maybe it'll get better when full throttle is available but I felt like i was going to be run down. I doubt I'll have a true cruiser, but I could see myself on a more standard motorcycle in the future. It would be nice to have a more relaxed bike to ride every once in a while Weather permitting we're doing his third riding lesson today, so wish us (him) luck!
  16. yeah, get back to me when that red kill switch is gone and they have rubber-chrome weaved tires
  17. I might come, it looks like its on the way to Kaitlyn's place but seriously, I may come. have to check on a couple things first
  18. awww man... I was hoping it was Saturday already
