mello dude

Shit, you weight 85 pounds? Dunno how to whack the throttle wide full open? Never go faster than 65? Barely ever use the brakes? Dont ever lean it and clean off the chicken strips?

18k? holy shit!

Been thinking about going for the CCW --- So, for CCW classes, there is no mandated set requirements or standards, it is up to the "instructors" for how the class goes? How are "instuctors" permitted to teach a class?

I give up.. good luck ..

I'm on 4- 5 other bike forums and all have a post edit and delete button....

A cage? not happening... another bike? possible... - A 300ZX was my last "fun" car. It was nice, but sunny days would always jump on a bike over the car....

Signal Dynamics sells stuff like that for fixes..... http://www.signaldynamics.com/

Seems like a crazy ass idea to hold it in Chicago or even American soil in the first place... -- Well maybe NY would be ok, since they already have the security for something like that....

^^^ This year should be nasty, since we had a warmer than normal winter....

Can you start the bike? See if you can do the checks in post #3. -- Its not that unusual to drop half a volt on a battery of a non running bike. Part of the puzzle is to find out if your are getting a charge on the bike while running.

I forget which one of the rider guru's (Keith Code?) mentioned that a lot of riders have bias that they are better in cornering one direction vs the other. It takes practice to get both up to the same. For a ride skillz book I think this is the best.... http://www.amazon.com/Sport-Riding-Techniques-Develop-Confidence/dp/1893618072/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1335844799&sr=1-1

In addition to the factory manual, I would occasionally be looking at the fische. Sometimes the exploded views are helpful to check where parts go and check that you have all the stuff too. Here's good link http://www.powersportsplus.com/parts/search/Honda/Motorcycle/1996/CR250R+A/parts.html

I have been fine on finding parts, just need to know where to look... http://www.powersportsplus.com/parts/search/Honda/Motorcycle/2001/VFR800FI+A/HEADLIGHT/parts.html For competitive prices on OEM parts check http://www.powersportsplus.com/parts/search/Honda/Motorcycle/parts.html www.ronayers.com

Please do an overnite charge on the battery, and then take it to get a load test. You need to confirm good/bad. How old is the battery? - You're spinning your wheels untill your know you have a good battery. After that - go to post #3.

Holy shit that looks fun!

"Take responsibility....." - "The limit is yours and yours only..." Absofuckinglutely! Incredible power slides!...

^^^^ This (ditto)

^^^ That's great! You'll have to give some proper out in the sun photos to show it off.

I wouldnt be freaking over Romney and gun laws. He is a typical political wind sock and will say whatever he thinks his audience wants to hear to get elected. - Trouble is, I have no idea what he stands for.

:eek:

That's great - hilarious!

Wet? Full tank and all fluids Dry? Bone dry as in on whats the weight on the mfgr CAD model. Another suggestion, if you got a buddy with a dirt bike, see if you can get some seat time on that. Good luck
