  1. Looking good! Great job! Very cool...
  2. Ive had that happen too. Was wondering about that....
  3. The formation flying is impressive - I wonder what kind of control protocol is going on... Ever see this one? It's being used for surveillance - the Libyan revolution troops actually bought one. - Next add small arms and you got something nasty. http://www.aeryon.com/
  4. Getting older is inevitable. Growing up is optional...

    Short and sweet....... - reg IRA - some tax saving now - lots more tax later - Roth - a little more tax now - NO tax later
  6. Kinda cool...... In the holy shit column - kinda of a guided cruise missile bullet to hit a target a mile away. - Jeez, someone could get nailed, and nobody would see who did it.... http://news.yahoo.com/self-guided-bullet-strikes-target-mile-away-video-132957445.html

    - First if your workplace has a 401k plan - work to max it out all you can first. - With a regular IRA, you are allowed to deduct the contribution from you gross income, thus saving some on taxes, $5000 up to 50 years old and $6000 over 50. Also there is a forced withdrawl or distribution at 70 1/2. And there is a major tax hit in case of an early withdrawl. - With a Roth IRA, you can again contribute up to $5K but the money cant be deducted off gross income at tax time. The benifit is that any gains are not taxed ever, and there is no requirement to take out any distributions. Also after 5 years of owning the account - you can take out your base (your original money that you put in, - there might be an over 50 years old requirement on that. gotta check) - If you can stand getting by without the upfront tax deduction, the Roth is the better vehicle over the long haul. I'm sure other "gurus" will kick in........
  8. It's too big a coincidence that both sites had failures. It has to be something in common like an engineering eff up, bad materials or name it. I'm sure OHSA is gonna have a hay day with it.
  9. Actually my last one was an '88 accord that I bought with 89k on it and ran it to 206K. Sold it for $900 and bumped into my '90 at 86K for $2000. I'm gonna keep going for old low miles Accords - cheap, reliable, and more money for motorcycles.
  10. 267K miles? It's an insperation for my '90 Accord with 119K on it.
  11. I have heard nothing but good things about Spencers seat mods - although he is in Florida, he will do anything you want.. http://greatdaytoride.com/Home_Page.php
  12. Outstanding build. I had been curious about bits and pieces of it. The yamaha calipers had me head scratching about the front end. Very cool bike. -- GLWS
  13. Update info------ Sponsors abandon bill....... http://mashable.com/2012/01/18/pipa-sopa-abandon-bill/
  14. That BBQ is an old white castle - not much room -- suggest Frickers on 725 on an off nite. Lots of space, reasonable food, cute waitresses.
  15. ^^^ That's pretty damn clever...
  16. What a dumbass - any bets that she'll be broke in 5 years?
  17. I have been having withdrawl symtems since Full Tilt got shut down....
  18. I'm on a Valkyrie forum and there's a group that swears by car tires. They still say the bike handles great. -- Yeah, right. Most of them dont have a clue what good handling is, and have never been on a sport bike leaning hard on the gas with thier knee down. fools -- For a cruiser type tire, Avon Cobra's seem to be the best bet. Dunno if they come in your Harley size. Dennis Kirk is a good source.
