  1. Rep to you sir! A great looking video! Well done. Plus my bike looks so cool in it! I'm going to watch it again!
  2. :plus1: Plus the wings are cheap! Nom, Nom,Nom,Nom,Nom,!
  3. Post more pics! We all live vicariously through you ride!
  4. Its 3:13AM as I post this. Somehow I don't think I'll be at IP at 8:30AM Have a good ride guys!
  5. Consider as well what you could buy in 1985 that you can't buy now, as far as size of motor. In 1985 how many models could you buy over 1400cc's is a factor too.
  6. You could be right about that. At least I've got my good looks!
  7. Hmmm... Nobody wants to ride today in C-bus. Early that is. but for a good ride, prolly worth it. I'll have to have a good talk with the alarm clock about this one. A definite, possibly, maybe...
  8. ========

    I honked at you on 270 today. I was in a blue Jeep. You were broke off to 33.

    ========

    I wondered who that was.

    I was off to Hoblick's place to get my chain fixed.

    It runs better now! :D

  9. Hmmm, could that be used in a court of law?? As in against you?
  10. I have to agree with NinjaNick here about the numbers. In the first paragraph the article lists real numbers. In the second it lists percentages, an increase of 89% sounds dramatic but the change in notation is done to throw off the reader so that they don't try to calculate what is going on and then follow the lead of the article. Example 1997 = 2116 fatalities in one year Some unnamed time period after that = + 89% Is that an average percentage increase per year, mean, median or total bullshit number made up by my mom? So was 1998 2117 fatalities? It doesn't really say. But I'll bet this report has been quoted somewhere by someone looking for an increase in funding for something. Or to pass some kind of law about some thing. It occurs to me that is the sole reason to write such a report in the first place. Clueless politicians reading such reports come up with the strangest ideas. When Elizabeth Dole served as Secretary of Transportation under Ronald Reagan she heard that motorcycle riders were being thrown from their vehicles in crashes. So with a straight face and no clue what so ever she proposed making seatbelts mandatory on motorcycles. Go figure?!?
  11. Which could only happen if more voters wanted it. ie a higher percentage of riders in the voting pool. Again the statistics thing is at work.
  12. Thanks one and all. Just got back from Hoblick's place after putting on the new chain. Much better! Hung out for awhile and watched him install some forward controls on a new Fury. All in all a good day Hoblick, thanks again for the help! Don't forget about the wiring offer either. Rep to you sir!!
  13. Very cool idea. A caution for anybody else out there trying this You can only screw so many threads deep into the camera body before you crack the circuit boards or other needed parts on the inside of the camera case. Direct from the "You might wonder how I know this" category. I might opt for a shorter bolt or a washer or two.
  14. In the worst economy since the seventies? Unemployment at 16% by the not quoted govt source? Stuff happens. Whoever the poster was must be a financial genius. What a dumbass thing to say. Um, your ex-wife isn't on the board is she? Ex-Mother in-law, ex-girlfriend? Seems like a bitch comment. On the other hand, pay as much attention to it as it deserves. I'll start, YAWN!
  15. Yea, what she said. If dude can't keep his cool, shouldn't be playin' for that school.
  16. I know what you mean. Friday nights I go out looking for customization and carbon fiber... Not that I think I would have done any better.
  17. Just saw this thread. I have to agree with the majority here. Get checked out. File a police report, they will take one even if they don't want to. Write down what happened, you wont remember exactly what happened 6 years from now when it goes to court. Get pics. Save all receipts. Glad you are mostly OK. If you would have been on the ninja, well, you weren't, thats good. Never liked that crazy parking lot either. I'm near Dublin, need something call. 614-560-0630
