  1. I bet they don't even use the tires that came from the factory or the body work. You should change all that stuff too.
  2. How much track time do you have? Learning to ride is more important than having a fast bike. I would vote to put the money into some track time. Then add the rest later if you still feel it's needed.
  3. Ninja 250 is a great deal for resale reasons as stated above. The overall cost of ownership is less. Hyosung makes a very good motorcycle but the resale value alone makes them very expensive to own.
  4. Yamalube at the required times as stated in your manual. People will tell you one is superior to the next but with little proof or experience other than it has worked well for them. That statement may be true for them but they don't know if using brand "X" wouldn't have worked just as well. No manufactured will recommend a product that won't provide you with the proper adequate protection. You are wasting money if you are spending more for a so called superior oil option.
  5. And I'm not afraid to use it.
  6. I wasn't here when this thread started so here is my take on it now that it's been revived. A motorcycle rider with a helmet on is no safer than a person in a car with or without a seatbelt on. If we can accept a seatbelt laws for safety reasons then I think we should ban and make all street motorcycles illegal. If safety is governments concern then I can't possibility understand how motorcycles are even allowed on our roads? Motorcycles don't provide and compelling reasons for being used as transportation so why give people the option of using them at all. Vehicles with crash ratings, seatbelts, third brake lights, air bags etc, etc ... should be the only available options on the road if safety is the obligation of the governments.
  7. Can I have your wife's number I want to be her friend?
  8. That's a nice thought and if you had the money is key here. The B-King beats the new V-Max in just about any category you want to measure plus you can buy two B-Kings for the price of one V-Max. The first year the new V-Max came out it had a limited production of 2,500 units and only 1,800 were ordered. It would have been cool if they had met the limit number and let them be a normal production unit the following year but that didn't happen. This would have probably allowed the price to meet the current market but right now you will still pay full retail in most cases. The bike missed the mark and the price keeps people away from them.
  9. That sounds more like it you are about twice as likely to be in an accident on a motorcycle.
  10. That's right and feel free to add any additional derogatory terms you want to pile on. If he takes offense to us calling him names tell him to join up here and we can have a discussion about it. THAT would be fun!
  11. Clerical errors have little to do with police on the street. Her point is not rebuked by your point. I understand that situation would be extremely frustrating but the fault doesn't belong to the guy who puts you in cuffs. Her views work for her but maybe not for all of us. I have never needed the police and have a hard time thinking of a reason I would ever need them. I sleep peacefully at night not because of them but because I am responsible for my own safety and feel I have that covered.
  12. If you factor in miles driven per vehicle do the odds change?
  13. That sounds like fun and I would like to do it but I will be out of town that weekend. I would like to catch the next one.
  14. Not obligated to? What pack of dogs raised the dumb fucker? Normal social etiquette and being a decent human makes you pay for it. I can't imagine how he can sleep until it was taken care of. With integrity like that you should have been able to see it ahead of time and not allowed him to ride it in the first place.
  15. The asshole is dead. His first shot was on a spent shell in his revolver. He was hit one time out of the 14 shots fired at him but that one was all that was needed to provide sufficient lead poisoning to expire this waste of skin.

  17. The sparks when he hit the building made me think he hit a pole. Yeah found not guilty but why did it need to be brought to a trial at all unless the prosecutor has no discretion when a public servant is being charged. I can’t see how anyone after watching the video could need to deliberate for more than 15 seconds. I did keep waiting for him to drop his empty magazine and reload though.
  18. Another good shoot. I hope he died when he hit that pole. http://www.missoulian.com/news/local/article_2dd02134-477f-11df-aba6-001cc4c002e0.html?mode=video
  19. Just in case anyone wants to know. Residence Inn by Marriott Columbus 2670 Adams Farm Drive Columbus, GA 31909
  20. Let me see if he made the last cuts but he was there a month ago. Are you working out of Amherst?
