  1. no one's can. by definition, supersports are designed to put the rider in a position conducive to aerodynamics in a straight line, while still providing for comfortable movement from side-to-side and hanging off the bike. A comfortable seating position isn't a priority when the bike is designed to have you hanging OFF the seat 80% of the time anyway :)

    someone really needs to design and market quick-adjust clipons... maybe I'll do it.

    A set up with 'risers' that could be flipped so they also act as 'lower-ers' for when you want to ride more aggressively, maybe?

    no tools required. all quick-release stuff that could be changed in 60 seconds.

    Another reason I don't really care for a supersport, I wouldn't use it for it's intended purpose enough, anyway.

    On the quick release stuff.... It would have to be something REALLY reliable, since we're talking about control of the steering! I can think of a few ways to do it, basically a second lock to prevent the quick release from opening. There are several things I've seen that could be adapted to this application..... The wheels are turning, but not enough to take your idea!!!!

  2. ive been lucky with my fords. and as a tech i love gm's fuck ups hub bearings and leaky intakes all day and i love mopars shitty power steering racks, pinion seals, outer tie rods and the 30k front and rear diff service as well as transfer case and spark plugs. must be why they are goverment owned and ford isnt.

    Ad to the list, Chrysler for their awesome transmissions, Ford for their 3 valve 5.4 (WHY????) and all the vehicles that owners neglect.....

  3. Not I! I don't even have a live sub right now, and I haven't even turned on the 360 other than to watch movies in months. Now that colder weather is moving in, that might change around some though.... And I don't know enough about the 360 to get in trouble in the first place!

  4. PRoduction yes....FO rhis Show.

    He has pure raw talent though...as do a lot of country artists, Unlike a LOT of other artists of different types of music.

    I can't say I don't like him, but i think he's overly hyped. There are much better artists out there....

  5. that isnt mine........ i was a glory hole pack mule that night :mad:

    nice way to treat the handy

    Fixed!

    i was on crutches allllllllllll night!!! my pits were nearly bleeding :lol: i couldnt go anymore.

    Sounds painful!

  6. lol sorry kids, wasn't advanced planned. Was backing her into the garage and I decided "oh what the hell, why not?".. held the front brake super hard, stood up tried once and I let it go too slow so I felt the bike lurch...

    Tried once more... spun it for a second and let go cuz I was fraidy :)

    You shoudl ALWAYS have typing cat armed with a video camera for such reasons!!!!

  7. if you are looking to make a jump to a bit nice camera, but don't have the knowledge of SLR. check out the Canon G-10. a GREAT camera. It's like a Point and shoot on steroids. Has a lot of manual adjustments to help you learn the SLR ropes. VERY versatile camera. And it's still a Point a shoot. And it's not as $$$$ as a SLR. Great camera to move up to.

    From a Lurker. Check it out.

    And if you look up Midwest Camera Exchange in Columbus, O. They were running a great sale on this too. FYI

    How are their prices compared to Cord? I'd prefer to shop locally, but not a cord's prices. Although I DID buy my 40D from them, since I didn't want to wait for it....
