  1. Gawd - Honda must be feeding the designers some high quality Colorado dope, some acid and tequilia, and force them to watch super hero cartoons for hours on end, in a locked up Hotel hall to come up with the next concept. They out uglied themselves on this one, this time. EEEEWWW!
  2. IT + PMP = gold. ---- In IT, software, engineering, aerospace, the PMP is good to have. (I got mine.) --- Project management in healthcare IT is hot. So is the mobile app segment. PMI.org Damn, somebody on this board knows what a PMP is. Bad, -- Check around in project management and health care and see what pops up. - Also, as mentioned before, nowadays, a full Linkedin profile is a must. - Join local job hunt groups in Linkedin in your town. Also there should be network groups in your town too. Also join. - Get out the resume, and work on it. Google - Top ten resume writers and steal their examples, model yours after one of the first few that you like. Make sure that you like it. Be wary of resume writers. Most are doing that because they cant get a real job and are terrible. Also most will tell you that your resume is bad so they can get your business. Beware. - Post on Monster, Careerbuilder. - Scan - Indeed.com - Simply Hired.com - Network your ass off. - There are job groups everywhere. Join one. - That's just a start. Just throwing out there, from someone who has just been there, done that, recently. GL
  3. I live in Centerville area if you wanna get out and do a cruise ride. I mostly hit south around Waynesville/Lebonon/Oregonia. I have a Valkyrie for cruising. Its apart for the moment but should be ready when the warm temps hit. My VFR is ready to roll. One to go fast and one to go slow.
  4. ^ I'm kinda agreeing to disagree. There's plenty of fodder on guys getting caught with cooler temps and the battery sitting overnite, and have trouble starting. Even Shorai, ended up recommending bumping up the battery size for this. Most vendors build batteries from A123 cells, Full Spectrum included. Shorai is the exception. Buy one, try it. Checked my 3 year old Lithium Iron Phosphate, A123 cell constructed (MOTYdesign) battery -- pulled it around late Oct and it was 13.8, check was 13.74. I'm not concerned. It will be ready to go come warm weather. Beats the crap outta effing with a charger on a conventional battery. If it sat a year, I still wouldnt be concerned over it.
  5. VFR 5th gens and 6th gen have the same side mounted radiators like the RC51 and tend to run hot. I have used in my 5th gen and it improved temps around 10 or so degrees.
  6. I use Pro Honda HP chain lube. Its a blend of moly and teflon. Spray on and let dry for 20 mins. Its a dry film type. Near zero sling off. Hate chain waxes -dirt magnets...
  7. Got more info on that?
  8. I have had the same issues. With Chrome most online videos are jerky, and then if I take the same video and run it on IE, it runs smooth. PIA. Waht's the solution IT guru's?

    F'n Repubs.

    Did you actually read the article? Not once was the word republican mentioned and multiple times, the Obama administration was. btw - I hate both parties
  10. I am stlll a Honda guy, but on some of the new bikes lately, I dont know what the hell the styling guys are thinking. Look at the VFR1200, the DN1, the new Valkyrie, the CTX1300, the CTX700. They are all in competition for the fugliest motorcycle on the planet. These bikes are probly functionaly excellent, but gawd, please dont make me have to look at one.
  11. Eastern Beaver has great products. But there are US sources for similar if you wanna avoid the shipping penalty from Japan.
  12. There are better products on the market with fused sections for individual electric gear. That fab job thing has one large fuse for the whole group, not the best. (There's a whole $18 - $20 bucks of parts in it. Pass) Example http://www.fuzeblocks.com/
  13. If the new VFR had gear driven cams it would be perfect.
  14. Just stay away from the west and north west side. If you want to party, hit the Oregon district. -- Fairborn is fine.
  15. Nice Raider! - What vendor's wheels are those?
  16. If you keep in mind these batteries lose their punch after a time sitting in cold temps, you will be fine. I just bring mine in the house if the garage temps start looking 40s or less. Best part is for the winter, I also bring it in the house and set it on my desk, no charger required. Typically it looses only a tenth of a volt for the months it sits.
  17. If there ever was a bike screaming for wire wheels... the Fury is it...
  18. It does look like a nice package. It seems to be a 5th/6gen blend. VFRD has been all lit up with 80 + pages of commentary. It doesnt look like they will sell it in the US for now. ...
  19. +1 to Spiegler - and they are local from here. Nice to be able to walk in and talk to them.
  20. That Grom looks like a riot. I can see Grom racing on a go kart track.
