    Thank you OR!!

    I don't go to races to see manufacturer displays. I don't go to races to shop at the vendors. I don't go to races to fight for square inches of grass in the hot sun. I don't go to races to see 40 bikes on the grid. I go to watch motorcycle riders compete against one another. I go to enjoy the camaraderie with friends and fellow fans both during the races and well into the night.
  2. he's got the chain off, but needs the rivet tool. opie, I've heard of people using a c-clamp and a ball bearing to flare the rivet and then just the clamp to collapse it the rest of the way. Not necessarily the best solution, but it may work. Iron Pony may sell the tool too.
  3. That's probably just through the rubber. And looking at the chicken strips on that harley, it doesn't seem like that section of tire will be subjected to, well, anything. pull it. no leak, go ride.
  4. so where's the 'good' pics from saturday night?

    Never did I say that the only reason everything was down was due to Laguna. I simply stated my belief that the distance between venues and the back-to-back weekends (the only back-to-back on the schedule, mind you) caused many vendors to choose not to come to ohio. With AMA and MotoGP both in California and events starting 4 days after the mid-o race, the feasibility of promoting at both events is quite impossible. Yes, attendence is down due to many factors- the economy limiting factory support and fans without the cash to attend is a big factor. Everyone is quick to blame DMG for the lack of excitement, but they're doing what they feel is best for the sport. Yeah the XR's are a joke, but so what? Were you forced to sit there at watch 'em? They're there as an effort to reach out to new fans and to advertise a brand- just like everyone else out there.

    I think the vendor support was especially lacking due to Laguna this coming weekend.

  9. all probes are beat to shit. good luck with sale
  10. SV's are pretty easy to launch. The low end torque of the v-twin is pretty forgiving.
  11. what do you mean by 'forever'? SV 0-60 is like 3.5 seconds
  12. start a thread in the NWS section.
  13. Bikes can park for free in the big field along the vendor/concession row.
  14. Anybody from cleve coming to mid-o this weekend? I'd pay good money if someone would pick up a growler of this.
  15. Is that number of accidents per age group or percentage of drivers within each age group? because if it's the former, your data doesn't necessarily support your argument.
  16. They were pushing the right pedal. It was the left pedal that needed pushed.

    Tachman, you need to learn to find the silver lining. You've been simply presented the perfect opportunity to become a master of solitaire and minesweeper!
  20. If you do it correctly, there's no problem clutchless shifting into second. If you screw up though, bent shift forks aren't unheard of.
  21. if you have a drill press, you may be able to make one out of some steel stock
