  1. To do pavers that won't sink under a car's load, you're gonna have to do a lot of work under the pavers themselves. It may be better in the long run to just have a slab of concrete done.
  2. Congrats on the penis ben.
  3. I think it was the race that ran with the SV's
  4. Don't let the door hit you in the ass on the way out Michelle.
  5. you can get the wheels,rotors, and relocation bracket for about $750 from warp 9
  6. The only thing a chain guard does on a sportbike is keep water and oil from splattering everywhere. Those plastic (and even aluminum aftermarket ones) won't do shit to stop a chain.
  7. You do realize that all the added weight isn't on the front of the bike, yes? And that the front wheel only gets power when it skids or the rear spins, right? YOU said the bike wasn't agile and I gave you a specific example where this bike excelled in an agility contest. Quit trying to use different examples to disprove my point. I didn't say enduros were all vertical, I said that the bikes were not going fast while TURNING therefore negating the gyroscopic effect. Yes, you will feel the extra weight when tossing the bike side to side, I never said otherwise, but you seem only capable of seeing the negatives of this bike and I really can't understand your vehement responses. Or are Christini and your precious KTM no longer friends?
  8. you're just mad cuz the kawi doesn't look like a 2 year old molded it outta playdough.
  9. Too late! you already clicked "Buy it Now!"
  10. you don't think the engineers had to go out of the box to get to the ZX-14?
  11. And to counterpoint the gyroscope comment: An offroad bike is usually vertical when it's going fast. Not exactly a lotta long sweepers in offroad racing. So yes, the bike will have a different feel in some situations, but it's not like the fwd is going to completely change how the bike rides.
  12. It only adds 15lbs and how can you argue the agility point? You don't finish 2nd in endurocross if the bike isn't agile. You make valid points as to where the bike won't be better than a regular bike, but again those places aren't where this thing is meant to perform.
  13. Who said this was for motocross? It clearly isn't. It's meant for woods and enduro challenges. It also has an off switch so you can choose when it's helping you.
  14. What I want to know is how are they taking an $8,000 crf450, adding FWD, and then selling it for $6995??
  15. They placed second in endurocross this year, guess that means something. http://www.christini.com/awd-technology.php
  16. It's a program that runs in the background of your computer. It only uses the resources that you're not utilizing. Basically it utilizes what would end up as wasted electricity. What is it doing? It's acting as a very small portion of a huge network of computers. This is known as "cloud" computing and allows the group running the program to do huge calculations and processing that would normally necessitate supercomputers.
  17. Rectifiers being replaced. They'll be in stock at dealers around the first week of march. Give 'em a call if you're on the list.
  18. hey jstump, just a little advice... Wait until after your MSF to commute on the highways. Commuting is the most dangerous aspect of motorcycling because you're out on the roads when everyone else is just droning along trying to get to work or home- they are NOT paying attention. You need some experience on two wheels before you'll be really equipped to deal with these people. You need to be on top of your game on the highway- watching your mirrors, watching ahead of you, watching for people coming from all sides- It's a LOT to deal with and is a challenge for even experienced riders.
