How stupid does this look ???????

Pretty harsh criticism coming from a versys rider.

Don't you guys realize what's going on here?

This is a GENIUS ploy by someone at AMA to direct that vast majority of the AMA magazine readers AWAY from the good riding to save it for the rest of us!

I applaud them.

*Inquiries

The fit of the pin in the hole will change the shear strength.

The strongest is a press fit or interference fit.

A loose fit will dump all the force in a smaller area on the pin.

Formed rivets are good if the formed head is within the min/max height and/or width when finished.

A good clip link will still require a press fit. A properly fit clip master link will run a while even if the clip has fallen off.

Thanks guys.. found rivet master links online for pocket change!

you did get one for the brand of chain you've got, yes?

there can be subtle differences between manufacturers.

Dayum, is it 2002 already?

But, a guy that has a 10 plus year old bike probably wouldn't understand.

Classy.

There's no way in hell Les would go to a public sporting event.

Fixed.

No love for magic fingers?

you'd need to do some engineering to get those AC motors to work with a DC battery

Magic Fingers

You're kinda defeating the purpose of this thread when you keep quoting his spam, Ben.

That's what you get for parting out a KLR!

ATT bought 'em because they were a cheap way to get more customers. T-mo didn't have any way to get 4g without paying vzw or att to carry their customers. Getting bought was easier.

At first glance it kinda looked like a modernized Stingray to me.

You need to expand your automotive horizons:

Too bad they don't include how much it cost to run a checkpoint. I'd like to see if it was worth it.

Would you pay $20/drunk to get them off the road? I'd say that's probably effective use of taxpayer money, but if it's $2000/drunk... then it starts getting gray.

It's easy to put a number on it when it doesn't hit close to home. I'm sure there are plenty of people who would pay much more than that to get a loved one back.

I think checkpoints are great, in fact I'd say we get a better bang for our buck with them. An officer can check a much larger number of people much quicker than driving around all night looking for someone swerving.

I've been through a couple checks and they don't bother me a bit. Is your paperwork in order? Have nothing to hide? Sober? You barely even have to stop.

I'd at least give Ohio a shot, 200 miles is a lotta gas money.

With o-ring chains, 99% of the game is just keeping it clean. the o-rings are what keep the chain from binding up by holding grease inside the rollers. The other 1% is keeping the side plates lubricated.

The reason Nick has such good success with WD-40 is because he uses more like a cleaner than a lubricant. You don't want to douse your chain in WD because it WILL penetrate the o-ring seal and remove the grease inside.

Depending on who's in the seat

If Mario Andretti is in a Corolla, does that make it an F1 car?

DUI counts on private property in Ohio, btw, even on a lawn mower. Fuck any LE that would hand out that violation if no other harm were being done, but it's the law.

you probably wouldn't mind that law so much if you had a crazy drunk uncle chasin your ass with a skid steer.

Lowering link and grab a seat off ebay and cut it down.

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.

Congrats on the penis ben.

Gotcha. Knew it wasn't this year!

I think it was the race that ran with the SV's
