  1. I wrote a note and let Kos know to give your stuff to jagr. Curby, I have your stuff here, I thought I remembered seeing a note you weren't able to make it... I hope I didn't make that up... if I did you're close enoguh to me anyway.
  2. Just got off the phone with the main man Kosmo, he's going to bring the stuff down. Kosmo saves the day as usual! Still anyone who can't make it let me know, oldschooldime, lizard and dustin.
  3. *loud sigh* I'm about to go out there and hit the tire with a baseball bat! This supremely pisses me off.... why does this crap have to be so difficult?!? I had to take the car to a shop yesterday to have them repair a rim leak... what's up with my luck lately?
  4. Tried ... it's not budging.... I'm going to wait for an expert to be here... a 15$ tube and valve is better than needing 200 for a tire mounting and etc.
  5. What's need to fix it correctly? I imagine it requires taking the tire off completely and putting it back on correctly? Also I'm confused because the tire says TubeLess on it but the service manual shows a tube (and now I remember when they put the tire on putting a tube in it) I'll take it to IP, I wish I could blame someone for this (state 8), but it's probably 100% my fault, flat tire overnight, noone to blame but myself.
  6. What about him? He's a complete failure.
  7. When I called him this morning you totally offered. He told me he'd love for me to ride on the back! The problem is he's too fast and I'm ascared I'll fall off!
  8. That seems to be exactly what's going on, I tried beating on it to get it to seat, then tried overinflating hoping it would "pop" back into place. Valve stem is fine now, I figured out that you have to tighten it with the reverse side of the cap to make sure it doesn't leak. Here's a picture of the tire/rim, it is tubeless. It's right along there I can't get the inside track of the tire to reset back, it seems like it's stuck in the middle. My front tire is one of the tiny ones on the Vulcans, 80/90-21
  9. I am! I'm calling folks around me to see who wants to drive down. My lease is up in a few months and I'm at my mileage limit Anyone from NEO area driving down that doesn't mind my ass in their car? Kos is headed down I know but he's got the whole family and I don't know how long he's planning on staying for.
  10. I hope so too, I really really thought about just riding down to CBus with it like that... but as I was about to take the turnpike exit off RT 8 I thought about all the folks on here that have been injured lately (bkizz was on the top of my mind) ... I didn't want to risk it.
  11. I know! Trying to find someone up here that wants to drive and doesn't mind leaving "at will" lol Wife has "stuff" to do today so she said no (which pisses me off!)
  12. I'm trying to get down there, wife may need her car (and I can't put that mileage on my POS)... I'm trying to find a friend up here that wants to drive down together....
  13. Seriously, I don't blame anyone for saying this... Woke up this morning at 6:00, couldn't sleep anymore... went downstairs grabbed some breakfast watched some TV and then got ready to leave an hour and a half early so I would be way early to Circle K to meet JRM and Doom. Warm up the bike, put on all my gear jump on Scarlet and start backing her out of the garage, "hmmm she feels heavier than normal.... this is odd".... go to turn around in my drive away and I can barely move her, look down... front tire is 100% flat. FUCK. I grabbed the air pump and filled her back up. This has happened before but I normally catch it before it's 100% flat. (The pin in my valve stem is leakey after you check the air if you aren't careful to make sure the pin is centered). Great I'm full, wait 5 minutes check the air again, great ready to go. I start riding out of the neighborhood and something doesn't feel right, about 1 mile up the road something is WAY not right.... feels like I'm riding on a rutted road (you know that wobbly feeling)... I accelerate hard it disapears, slow down it reappears, coast and shift all my weight back, nothing, put some weight on the front end... comes back. Pull off the side of the road.... front tire still has air... must just be something odd. I keep going.... get about 1 miles from the turnpike and it's BAAAAAD.... I took my hands off the bars and the front end is shaking like CRAZY. I decided it was better to let a bunch of people down then wreck my bike and possibly kill myself. Come back home going about 30 the whole way, trying to figure out what's going on, get home get the front tire off the ground, it's WAY offbalance... I deflate the tire and checked everything, reinflate... still offbalance. It looks like the inner part of the tire is supposed to be free but it's stuck in the middle of the rim... I can't get this fixed by myself. Additionally my front brake IS in fact scraping, I think it's too early for the brake pads to be worn so it could be misalignment, but I'll probably end up replacing the pads when I take the front wheel off. So, too long didn't read? Likwid's a fucking asshole and won't be at the M&G like he promised. JRM: Sorry to wake you up this morning. Pauly: Expect a call when you get back from the Dragon, I figure you can fix this tire shit. Everyone Expecting SA stuff: Incredibly sorry to let you guys down. I'm trying to get the stuff down there for you, but if I can't it's still yours and I'll figure out how to get it to you.
  14. Sorry to hear that monro, I'm having technical difficulties and can't make it either...
  15. fucking bullshit. flat tire on Scarlet this morning... I filled it up but it's WAY offbalance now... I'm gonna try to get this settled so I can ride down but this isn't good
  16. Aight I'm logging off. See ya fellas there at 8 am. I'm on the red cruiser. Justin feel free to call me if anything changes.
  17. not just 1... 3! Man... I need a new life
  18. Shit that's a good point! jagr anyone bringing OR stickers? I'll trade a SA sticker for one
  19. Couple things it does odd: I don't like that they show him drawing his firearm and racking it, why wouldn't he be carrying condition 1 at least? Why is everyone shown shooting from their motorcycles with their right hands? Throttle much? The trailer with the dude wrecking... yah that looks gnarly... makes me cringe everytime.
  20. Swing'r you heading to the m&g tomorrow?
  21. just a reminder, if you have something claimed and you aren't going to the meet and greet you have to pm me or I'm giving it away! Flag patches and stickers no worries. (dustin and Lizard I got you two) Edit: So in case you didn't see, I had some issues this morning and can't make it down to the M&G, I'm sorry guys, I know this makes me look pretty shitty. Those of you who have dibs, you still do, no changes. I'll get this stuff to you guys I'm just trying to figure out how without being out a ton in shipping. Again guys, sorry.
