  1. Got pulled over when I was like 18 in Delaware just south of Condit on Rt3 for doing 93 in a 55. It was like 3am and my buddy and I were heading back from my cousins house in Mt. Vernon. I honestly just wanted to get home and was cruising, didn't realize I was going so fast. The cop was tailing an SUV going the opposite direction and as soon as I passed them I pulled over cause I saw the Crown Vic headlights. When he got up to the window I had both windows down, all the lights on, and my keys on the dash, he said I seemed to know I was gonna get pulled over. I told him when I saw his headlights I looked at my speedo and knew I was going to get pulled over, so I saved him the trouble. Just said "sir" after about every other word, and was very cooperative. He told me he wanted to let me off since I was so polite, but that his boss would have his ass for letting someone go that was going 93 lol. So all I got was a 160 dollar speeding ticket and miraculously no reckless op. Insurance never caught it, although my mom was pretty pissed. Another time I was on Lane Ave by Riverside Drive in my old RSX Type S at like 2:30. I was pulling up to a redlight and downshifted to 2nd to come to a stop, the Grand Prix at the light must have thought I was showing off or something because when the light turned green before I could stop and I passed him, he gunned it. Me being an ignorant 19 year old decided to play with him, so I gave it some gas too, turned the sharp left just before the intersection with Riverside, and again saw the Crown Vic headlights. I didn't even bother to slam on the breaks cause I knew he had me/us. Sure as shit he pulled a U-turn, but didn't turn his lights on. We got to the light and all 3 cars turned on to Riverside driving normal. After being on Riverside for a few hundred feet he pulled over the guy behind me, I just kept driving like normal. I could see he was next to him telling him to stay put. He then drove up and pulled me over, I again turned on all my interior lights, hazards, everything, and put my keys on the dash. This was our convo... LEO-You know why I pulled you over? Me-No sir. LEO-No idea? Me-No sir. LEO-What's the speed limit on this road? Me-45 sir.(Since we were on Riverside and he said this road, I told him the speed limit for Riverside) LEO-Hmm..that's right. Do you know that car back there? Me-No sir. LEO-You don't know them at all? You two weren't streetracing or anything? Me-No sir, definitely not. LEO-Well I clocked a car back on Lane going 67, and that's a 35mph zone. Did you notice headlights coming up on you fast? Me-(I turn and look at my speedo, turn back and look at him) 67mph?? I mean I saw headlights behind me, but I didn't know they were coming up that fast. At this point two more Upper Arlington cop cars have shown up. LEO-Alright, well I'm gonna go talk to the other guy. You stay put. Me-Yes sir. About 10 minutes pass and a different cop comes up to my window, an older guy. LEO2-Well the other guy said he doesn't know you. Since we can't say for sure which car we clocked we can't really do anything about it to either of you guys. Here's your license. Me-Thank you sir! LEO2-Alright get home and drive safe, oh and nice car by the way! Me-Haha thanks! It was stupid as shit, but damn was I lucky.
  2. Didn't know if I should put this here or in the events section, but I'm planning on riding down to Race for the Cure tomorrow and was wondering if they have any motorcycle parking, and if so, where? I can get a ride with my gf's family, but that would require going out of my way to her house first haha so I would rather just meet them down there.
  3. Jeffro, I've got a new/never used t3/t4 turbo I'll sell you real cheap, send me a PM if you're interested.
  4. The EVO would be just as bad...people just need to know how to use the phone. Do a little research on how to improve the battery life, people are getting more than 12 hours out of them with moderate to heavy use after doing some tricks. Also you can always get a heftier battery.
  5. Chris, can you give a quick crashcourse on rooting and all that? I'm hoping to get an Incredible soon, and I'm just wondering what it actually enables you to do. What are the positives and negatives?
  6. The Sentra's MUST get an aftermarket header, and have the butterfly valves in the intake manifold loctited. The header will add a solid 10-13whp though. They're great little cars with these two fixes. Selling mine that was paid off was the worst mistake of my life. I forgot to say WHY you NEED the header. The precat in the stock manifold WILL fail and your engine will eat shards of it, an aftermaket header eliminates this, and is quite easy to install. If I could do it when I was 18, anyone can.
  7. Fail on at least 2 counts, and saddle bags are always an option
  8. Thanks Don! I'm on my phone looking at this, and the Kawi forums I get on are almost impossible to read. When I get a break I'll try and see if I can make sense of all of that. The bike was running fine and the engine sounded normal. I also wasn't riding any differently than I normally do...just freaking me out cause I haven't had any problems with my baby yet.
  9. I was on my way to work just a minute ago and my FI light came on. This has never happened before so I'm kinda freaking out. It wasn't blinking or anything, just on. I have a 2005 Kawi 636. What do I do???
  10. That's the worst part, knowing that there's MAYBE a .98% chance that'll ever happen.
  11. Hahahahahahahaha I just choked on my own spit. She's hot as fook though.
  12. I think Dover's been on both. Said the 14 feeled too clunky/chunky I think, maybe not as comfortable. Being a Ninja fanboy I still say 'Busa.
  13. I always said I never wanted anything bigger than a 600...I lied. That's sex.

    Yeah, the bike is the main focus though. 2 wheels>4 wheels

    Josh...you're a fag
  18. Wow man...good to hear he's doing better.
  19. Jesus man, glad to see you're alright. Looks like the bike will buff out , and if you already dont, are you gonna start hunting?
  20. LOL this. Brings back some memories.
  21. The only word I can think of to describe the sound it made is "violent". Absolutely nasty.
  22. Through mass alcohol consumption I've evidently numbed my taste buds to the point that Natty tastes like barely more than water.
  23. I really like the angus beef dogs...call me an elitist.
  24. THIS!!!! I came here to mention this. Everyone edit your posts with any mods you have done to your bikes! Small things can make a BIG difference. Seats, sprockets, suspension etc. can really change the feel of a bike. I'll post about mine later though hahaha.
