  1. I can get you a BT014 for 130.

    If you think you could get a 160/60R18 that would open up a ton of tire options for you...

    I'm gonna see if I can get the Shinko. Got a buddy who can get tires and parts but isn't sure about Shinko's. If not I might take you up on that. Originally the tire was a 140/60R18. A 160/60R18 will rub, already researched it. I know, sucks right?

  2. In cities and towns across America, people are carrying loaded hidden guns in public places. Some of these people are potentially dangerous. They could make the next decision about the safety of our families.

    But they don't want me to be able to make the decision to protect my family?

  3. Came across this.

    In cities and towns across America, people are carrying loaded hidden guns in public places. Some of these people are potentially dangerous. They could make the next decision about the safety of our families.

    Recently, groups are attempting to "normalize" this behavior in our society by openly carrying loaded guns in public. Regrettably, states including Ohio allow this practice of "Open Carry" as well as carrying hidden guns.

    And now they want to carry loaded weapons in our restaurants and other places that serve alcohol!

    Ohio legislators have introduced Senate Bill 239, a bill that would allow people to carry loaded guns into restaurants that serve alcohol (as long as they're not drinking!!!) The bill would also allow them to carry the gun anywhere in their vehicles without securing them in a holster or container (sliding around on the dashboard???)

    Don't let the 2% of Ohioans who want to carry their guns everywhere intimidate your family.

    I will not use my guns to protect you because you believe in gun control.

    When you come for mine, you had better bring yours.

  4. I would hope that Disney would have screened the people they have dressing as their characters.

    The supervision is the key here. It's getting to the point that we can't let kids out of our sight at all. I remember when I was a kid, I was told to get lost (or something to that effect!)

    And be back when the streetlights came on? Or was that before your time?

  5. No argument there... Although in really poor taste, they can assemble on a public sidewalk. They can even hand out literature to children. But touching goes way beyond. The fact that I despise PETA fuels my fire, without a doubt. The lawsuit/charges would certainly be frivolous and would not end in a conviction or judgment for the plaintiff... but I would have exhausted all measures of legal retribution. I was considering doing a deer-gutting demonstration on the sidewalk in front of their offices. Ok, I'm letting it go now. Wooo-saaaa Wooo-saaaa

    I don't have the finances to fight a battle I know I would lose. I'd like to see the law on "hugging". Would you let a character from Disneyland hug your kid? Where do you draw the line? I'm not disagreeing with you in anyway, just curious.

  6. great pics, i like great photographers.

    And about that wishing a soldier dead... Even a joke... Soldiers respect other soldiers, even the enemy. And we tolerate our fellow soldiers saying "i'll kill you", but no one else. It's part of the job, as it were. But we don't like to hear it from anyone else. It makes us a bit angry... Just info...

    qft.

  7. if a girl showed up on a group ride that i was leading like that, i would send her home

    I would hope so. And hence why it isn't being ridden anymore. If anyone showed up on a ride male or female, me leading or not, I'd send them home.

    Are there any wheel swap options for that bike? I know that people put CBR 600 wheels on the early Interceptors, so that they can use more common tire sizes.

    I think the only way to do it is with a swingarm swap. I don't feel like getting into that.

  8. A jury of your peers decides if a crime has been committed. A monkey can press charges. Defence attornies cost money. Assembling and making physical contact are two very different things.

    Chevy... feel free to weigh in... If a member of the Patriot Guard walked over and "embraced" one of the dip-shit protestors, what would happen?

    lol, Why did I get called out. I have been relatively quiet in this thread. But...

    if a PGR member walked over and hugged a protester, all hell would break loose. Fists would fly. Cops called. Charges filed. And seeing as some of the current lawsuits going on right now, the protester would win I have no doubt.

    I have a little girl. I would have a huge problem if this happened to her. Sure this took place on a public area. But this is not a controlled environment. If I took her to Disneyland and Dumbo hugged her, that's different. But PETA pulling a sneak attack and going behind parents is low. Could someone attempt to press charges? Sure. But I think the only way to win would to have better lawyers than PETA can get.

    I am torn though. This being in a public area and having freedom of speech. Yes there are people that may not like what happened, but not being familiar if a "hug" can fall into assault charges, other than that I don't think any laws were broken. And just because I really think it was immoral but that doesn't mean it is against the law.

    "I will defend to the death your right to say it."

  9. Bikebandit had 24 reviews, only one said they were crap. Everyone else said they really like them. Maybe I will try these out.

    "Tire feels good. I was running Michelin Pilots before these seemed smoother in the corners and were half the price. I will definitely buy them again if they last.
    "I recently replaced my Metzler ME3 radials with the 160/60-17 from Shinko and chose this tire due to its low price. I use my bike for commuting. I'm pleasantly surprised with what I bought. I believe it actually grips better than the ME3's, and I've ridden through some rain storms without any skidding during cornering or hard braking.
