  1. Um.... Aren't those pretty much the same cars? They share like 60 percent of the same parts, aside from body panels and drive train
  2. I didn't even know he was pulling me over at first, he flew up next to me and I thought he was passing me, then he tried to run me over... Kind of a wtf moment, wasn't even sure why he was stopping me... In hindsight, I should fled and will remember this next time. He actually told me I'm lucky he didn't run me over.. Prick
  3. He said I was fleeing from him, first since baseline, then since wild horse pass... Those roads are 8 miles apart, so that's a pretty big change in his story ...he's full of shit... If I was fleeing from him, he would have never gotten next to me in a crown vic... I was only going 70 something in a 65 and he "paced" me at 88, whatever... Now I have to go to court
  4. I had a cop try and side swipe me with his car while I was on my bike the other day... He got next to me, hit his lights and siren, and then immediately cut hard right into my lane and ended up in the shoulder... If I hadn't slammed my brakes when he hit his lights, he would have fucking killed me.... He threw out some bs of why he did it and conveniently he didn't have a dash cam in his car...Crazy fuck. Real eye opener. I'll be getting a helmet cam now to cover my ass. Whoever thinks cops should just be able to kill any suspect they want, without trial, should go get fucked, this isn't Pakistan .
  5. Bet he carries a gun with him on the next ride.
  6. such a disservice ..... IP should be ashamed
  7. Ride now Peoria killed the battery on my brand new bike before I ever even rode it... They had to jump it just to get me home... They must not be very picky about the techs that get hired
  8. Dispensary grade AZ stuff is top notch as well.. Currently on deck is some bubblegum kush, raspberry kush, and blue dream... Ohioans miss out on this stuff lol... Little harder getting a medical card here in AZ though, but we get better amounts of sunlight for it all to grow here.. Or so I hear
  9. We're gonna fly whatever is cheapest lol... Have to have another get together when I come into town... With a little bit less drinking this time haha
  10. ^ actually a good idea... Sure it ain't a duc, but you shouldn't be terribly disappointed with the swap
  11. Now and then? Lol... Didn't you make like 40+ passes per visit? Lbts glws Still got the cruiser?
  12. If you still have these at the end of the month I might be interested.. I'll be buying a plane ticket back to Ohio soon for this winter, just need to make sure I have enough cash set aside... Moving into our own house on the first
  13. All issues aside, why attack each other publicly throwing insults? Solve this between yourselves like adults... This reminds me of the little middle school kids who argue on Facebook and get their friends to help them insult their "boyfriend/girlfriend"
  14. set it to zero percent, ride 65 with your gps, check how much percent difference is between gps and speedo, then set healer for that difference? if you do that and the speed never changes, you may have a bad healer
  15. so....your occupation is: LEO DJ Chase bank McD burger flipper why did you need a new bike? doesnt sound like you will ever have time to ride the damn thing lol
  16. He says it was running great, not worse. Even rode it for several hours. I doubt a tune up ruined his clutch... Now, the oil change, maybe? Doubtful but maybe. Hence why people are asking what oil is in it. Without any details, why just blame ip? Maybe they always do his oil? What if it's the same oil that's always been in it? Without clarity, you can't place blame. They cleaned carbs and plugs in it, it's not like they changed the clutch and it broke down on the way home... There's way too many factors to place blame with the few details the op mentioned. The clutch could have already been bad and not showing symptoms.. Everything "runs great" until it doesn't.
  17. Not saying it isn't the oil, but to jump the gun with zero details of the problem and directly blame IP, is jumping the gun in my mind... My response wasn't directed towards the question of oil, just at the automatic response blaming ip
  18. Little quick to jump the gun... Just because they changed the oil, doesn't automatically make it their fault the clutch went out... *positive repped you on accident, oh well.. Not used to mobile site yet lol
  19. Video is a bunch of static and blurry colors when play it on my phone... From preview pic, what are you looking at? Just where the roads curve or something?
  20. not sure what his price would be, or what you consider inexpensive, but when i was in columbus, the only person who did body work on my cars was Kevin Clifford http://www.cliffordautomotive.com/ hes a member on here, but i dont know what his sn is and im too lazy to look it up lol more examples of his work on his fb than his website https://www.facebook.com/cliffordautomotive
  21. i ran low 28s on my yz80. come at me brian. honestly though, it seems like you read WAY too much into his post.....his OP doesnt come across as making excuses or putting anyone else down. he said his bike is underpowered, and with a few changes he should be able to pick up some extra time....more hp, slicks, and gearing changes should definitely net faster times even if his ability stays the same....all he did was mention needing to make some changes to his bike and getting more seat time....youre taking it all way too seriously as for racing minis and moving to big bikes, no idea on that front...my comment is just towards the whole "slap in the face" thing you mentioned.....i dont see anything negative about his post at all
  22. Just out of curiosity, what is wrong with the radiator that it wasn't repairable? And if it's back ordered, they should have ordered it and gave you one off of a showroom bike and fixed the showroom bike soon as they received it... Is this ride now? I ended up buying my bike there, even after your warning ... The salesman seemed Ok, but the financing manager was very pushy and didn't care what I wanted.. Said I didn't qualify with honda but Yamaha did and he said I can walk out with any Yamaha I want... Left on VFR after he almost pressured me into the fz1,next day he magically got me approved for the honda... It wasn't a very cool situation, but worked out in the end
  23. I love it here... Moved here the worst time of the year though.. It's too hot to really do anything right now.. But come September, I'll have 8-9 months of beautiful riding weather... Can't wait... Plan to do a lot of hiking and sight seeing too There's a beach like 2hrs from here... Not that bad.. You have to cross the border into Mexico, but everyone says it's right across the border in a tourist area and the road there is a hassle free zone so no worries about Mexican police hustling you... We're gonna go soon
