You know how to get a hold of me; I can't ride it to you because I'm a pussy.

The pain is in my non-shaking hand but it better be useful by then. I don't drink so if I'm an asshole it's all on me, can't blame the alcohol. I'm not sure how far this place is from me but I don't think it's too far. I get a paid for dinner at Red Lobster that night and I need to be back to the IX center the next morning so right now I'm 50/50 on making it this year, unless Kosmo needs a ride. Is there any way for me to get some killer DTC points by then so I'm one of the cool kids?

I find the CBR's comfort to be just fine and will ride all day. Comfort is personal though and for my size I didn't need the extra room the ZX offers but it wasn't uncomfortable at all. I had a CBR1100XX that was okay for me but the Busa I had fit me perfectly, others will find just the opposite so it's really hard to define comfort on a sport bike.

He can try mine if he likes, no one else is riding it, damn thing has been sitting since the end of July. ZX = better brakes way more engine up top CBR = easier to ride because it out handles the ZX comfort is a wash for my size but bigger guys will find the ZX more comfy.

That's what I was trying to say but I ain't educated enough to put it together quite so eloquently. By the way Justin how many DTC points do you have?

Mother Fucker, DTC has a lot of fucking rules. I doubt anyone could remember that many especially when drinking.

That ride was NinjaNick's, when the turnout got too big for anyone to handle I tried to help him out. I'm sorry to hear about the get offs and I hope for a speedy recovery to all. It sounds like those who went down did so around a good group of guys that took good care of them. I hope that I can make the next ride that goes out to the southeast area.

Artists are so mechanical. Oil won't help that problem.

Was custody of the site in a prenuptial?

As long as the part in the middle remains black, I'm still good with it.

If they do split the board I want to go with the half that doesn't have mods, that would be sweet. Not that I'm starting any rumors or that I've heard anything.

I had me one of them FJs back in the day and have even seen one out on a track day. Dragging hard parts and riding all crossed up is a recipe for disaster. Been there done that.

Long haired, dope smoking, pinko commie?

An American sport bike only company will never be bigger than an American cruiser company. Not gonna happen.

WTF, one other guy and me! The rest of you guys are a bunch of commies.

I love the dancing with the stars promo that states Palin can see the trophy from her house.

I love being surrounded; at least I know where all the white womens is at.

You absolutely can, healthcare is a huge part of our economy and most certainly is a business. Government intervention is why insurance prices are not affordable to most people. When you have to give care away to people who don't value their health enough to put money aside to pay for it the insurance companies and care providers are forced to pass the cost on to those who know and understand that healthcare is worth a large portion of their income. Just like housing and transportation which are not an entitlement yet. Not only that but the government reimbursement rate is terrible and the least profitable of all forms of reimbursement even among the uninsured.

Race you to the top.

This ties into the other current Harley thread. It doesn't matter how hard of a worker or how innovative he is I suspect failure in the future. Harley has been bailed out twice and couldn't survive without its accessory sales. Harley is involved in sales of the most popular type of road motorcycle there is and failure looks like it might be looming for them again. A single line of motorcycle sales of just sport street bikes is a hard business model to keep afloat with very few success stories, even the existing ones that appear to be making it are in trouble right now. If the big four Japanese companies didn't have other business ventures to keep their road bike business afloat they would have be out of business a long time ago.

You think these two issues are false? All doctors won't be fleeing medicine but less will be joining and many will opt out to form boutique care facilities. The level of care will not be as competent or at least the access to it will be hindered by additional government red tape. All pharmaceutical R&D will not be ceasing but when profits are capped by government intervention how many revolutionary hits are made to offset the pedestrian drugs will be diminished. If you think otherwise you must not understand the reason companies are in business.

I hate that hot goofy bitch and will not be voting for her in a primary. (I couldn't anyway because I'm registered independent.). If she gets the nomination of her party I will have to vote for her though. Not because I think she is a leader but because I think she will do her parties bidding and that party line fits my views more closely than the opposition. There hasn't been a leader elected since Reagan, plenty party hacks but no leaders. http://www.americanprogress.org/issues/2009/03/progressive_quiz.html I score an 87 on this quiz so I think the Tea Party is a bunch of lefties. The wording on some of these questions is terrible but scoring all 0's or all 10's on all questions give you a middle of the road score so it does have some ring of truth to it. I wish they would have put illegal immigration in the question as an example.

I don't see that as a big deal too bad the officers are being charged. I have seen abuse and will call it when I see it but this doesn't seem like it rises to that description. He took a few whacks for being stupid and is able to walk away from it. I didn't look into the story deeper but wouldn't expect his injuries to be long lasting. The worst ass beating I ever took in my life was at the hands of the Cleveland Police Department at the old stadium, for far less than what this guy did and I was beat by more officers for a longer period of time. I was acting like a drunken idiot and needed to be put in my place. No one got into any trouble over it, they held me until I sobered up then sent me on my way bruised up, much more polite and I didn't consider trying to sue anyone over it.

I hit the big red button but way after the fact, I had no clue I was approaching danger until I was nailed to the machine. I was able to get the control panel rotated so I could try to give it some commands but nothing worked because the arm hadn’t completed its function so it kept throwing error codes. I turned the drivers on and off several times trying different scenarios but nothing worked. In fact like a dumbass I had the drivers on when the guys came over to help me. They were trying to pry the arm away from the tool holder to get my finger loose but the tool would spin, it would give me some relief until then but it wasn't enough to get my finger out plus it would reapply pressure, fuck that hurt. When we decided to unbolt the arm is when I got scared of what might happen to all of us inside the machine with the motor still running and removing bolts while it was still under power. Damn I made a lot of mistakes that day and thankfully nothing worse happened.
