Sa-Weet. Just need to sell some blood, sperm, wife's jewlery, and one of the kids then I'll be all set for next year.

I personally would choose the Sonata over any Honda. However, if you work for Honda, don't you think you should support them? They are after all paying your paycheck. Just my 2 cents.

LMAO! Now, the future plan is that when we get pulled over, everyone keeps on their helments. Then jbot and I will take ours off and start screaming in a heavy dialect. They'll assume you all are part of the diplomatic entourage with us and let us all go.

I've watched too many COPS shows to know the odds are against you if you decide to run. Not to mention, you turn a speeding ticket into a felony as fast as you you can do a roll-on from 60-120. however, I may be retarded, but I always wondered if just once...

I've got that on my Scorpion. It helps a lot with the wind coming up. Most noticable on cold days or if you get behind someone kicking up dust/debris. Regardless, the Scorpion still let's in a lot of air, but it's a noticable difference. Overall it's worth it. I've never noticed Sparky's issue though. Not sure if it's b/c the skirt or not.

I was thinking the same thing! Nice meeting you guys as well. My parents still live in Columbus. I'll have to try to hook up with you guys in the future and then swing by my parents place.

Definitely a good time! Really nice meeting you all. Big props to IP for leading the way. Thanks for letting me join you guys. Hope we can do it again before the weather breaks. I was loving SR 22. Nice flow to it. Sorry I took off on you guys on I 77. I have thing about Ohio cagers who think the Passing Lane is a cruising lane. Had to stretch the ole' girl's legs and let her breath. I was at a good pace right before I saw the Statie on the on ramp. Barely stopped in time before he could tag me. Was praying that there wasn't a statie earlier on an overpass radioing to him. whew. I slowed down after that. Didn't realize it dropped to 55 in that area. Saw Cleave pull off the same off ramp a few cars back anyways. regardless, thanks for the good day.

$60 for a tire balancer. http://www.harborfreight.com/motorcycle-wheel-balancing-stand-98488.html ANd yes, you have to balance your tires, whether its with the beads or weights. if you don't you'll be wobbling and get vibration. Get a few spoons, 2-3 of various sizes, it will help. I've never changed without a bead breaker so can't attest to the 2x4 method. THe PITA part was getting the new tires on. I tried the soapy water but was apparently too stupid to get that o work. So we had a degreaser called "simple green" lying around. some sort of bio-degradable cleaner. Sprayed that all along the tire where the rim pops on and it was like magic. I've had 2 track days and 5k miles on them, so no issues. to protect your rims, you can buy those rim protectors. It's like a rubber type piece that wraps a part of the rim so you don't fubar it. I've never used that, but wished I did. Mines all scratched to hell. While you're at it, get 90 degree tire valves. My R1 barely had any room to reach near the rotors everytime I check the air. $10 from stealer was worth it. Always easier the first few times with a friend who knows what they are doing. GL.

Well I'm at work this morning since i have to get next year's budget done, but hoping to still meet up with you guys. Hope you don't mind a new person tagging along. I should be there a little before noon.

Count me in. I'm new to the area, but I am no a squid...although I have been called a douche-bag, I think it was cuz she was a psycho-bitch. But that's just my opinion.

Best opening shot yet! Love to see the first thing be of the porn star' @ss. I noticed that too! not real stealth like... I'm thinking the Belfast chapter are all dirty. If it was going to be a double agent type scenario, then I don't think clay would have aske about the VP's loyalty along with McGee's response. Of course I could be wrong, as rare as that is. Opie is my new personal hero! He can make that comment to his girl, get slapped, and then she comes running back while he dumps his kids on her for a week. He must be hung like a horse. I'm still lost on Jax's whole plan with Stahl. What is the club going to kill him for doing? And does Gemma going AWOL screw that up? Jax didn't seem to upset about that. Here are a couple of long shot predictions... Jax hooks up with his half sister;) Tig gets caught by Clay for making a move on Gemma in Belfast Jimmy, McGee, the VP gets axed:nono: Chibbs stays in Belfast with Fiona and daughter and becomes new Belfast Pres One of the prospects is an undercover agent. All above are just WILD guesses. I'm liking the season so far, just need to get things rolling. Looks like next week will be the big one.

i can't argue with your first had experience. glad you're alright though.

The premise is that concrete barrier is a) more expensive and b) can cause a lot of damage to the driver. But we still need a barrier since many fatalities are caused by head on collisions by cars drifting across the median and into the other lane. Also the intention is that on impact, the posts near the impact zone is supposed to give way and uproot. As the energy dissipates, less and less posts are uprooted. This lessens the impact and slows the car until it stops rather than going from 80mph to zero a la concrete barrier. As for MC's, I'd be pretty concerned as well. However, like everything else in the US, the almighty cage is the primary focus.

I actually think that it was Stahl's idea. I'm getting tired of the on/off with Tara. Just make up your mind and stick with bro. Personally, I'd choose the dumb porn star who will take it up the ass. Much better than Tara who's gonna want to "talk" and over think things. too much drama.... ...oops, wife is coming...I meant to say, you want to stick with the smart, independent woman who likes to express her own opinion.

Candlestone Golf & Resort is about 15 mins away. I think they are about $70 a night. You can always camp there too. Would love to do this, but just did Gingerman a few weeks back. Not to mention it is about a 5-6 hour drive from here. Grattan is a fun course for sure. I'm sure I'll get out there once or twice next year.

If you HAVE to buy new, leftover's are great...if they have what you want. IMO, I never buy new on a luxury item. I bought my '06 R1 in December of 2006. The guy only put on 1600 miles!! Bought it for $8500. I was at a dealership a month before and they wanted a brand new R6 for over $10k. There are deals out there...just have to be patient. But back on topic, Supply and Demand will bring the prices back down soon. Not to 1999 prices, but demand will slow, so R&D $ will slow, models will not update every 2 years, costs will then go down since the R&D is spread over more years/vehicles, prices will go down as they fight amoungst themselves for your purchase, then it'll cycle all over again. If you're going to buy new, wait a couple of years.

http://www.clutchandchrome.com/news/news/sons-of-anarchy-renewed-fourth-season Motorcycle drama Sons of Anarchy renewed for fourth season Friday, 08 October 2010 | Written by Asia | | The motorcycle drama Sons of Anarchy continues its remarkable run on FX as the network announced it would be back for a fourth season. With its third season riding to a TV screen near you until November 30th, Entertainment Weekly has reported that the biker drama will return to the cable network in 2011. The show’s creator, Kurt Sutter responded to the news on his Twitter feed, ‘Picked up for season 4 motherf**kers! Thanks to FX for the early pickup’ in his usual, subdued fashion. Of course, FX has every reason to renew the fictional drama follow the fate of a motorcycle gang in Charming California; it’s the highest-rated FX series ever, attracting an average of 4.9 million viewers per episode. Ironically, the news comes as FOX Networks continues its dispute with satellite cable provider Dish Network, pulling FX as well as National Geographic and its regional sports channels off the No. 2 satellite TV service provider, unable to come to terms with Dish on a carriage agreement that expired Oct. 1. "We'll probably take a hit with the Dish debacle," tweeted "Sons of Anarchy" creator Kurt Sutter, whose show will have its first run amid the carriage battle Tuesday night at 10 p.m. "That's exactly what Dish wants -- to hurt the network," he added.

Why 60? just curious what's up with the 636?
-
Nice... Funny thing is that when it happened, I yanked my knee up. Either way, I'm stoked! Now I got to work on my entry speed and trail braking. too bad it's the end of the season:(
-
Agreed! Seems like a stretch to have them there. And then McGee being an original 9? how did that happend. I figured he'd have an american accent. Agree again. Seems to be the only hole in MarkB's comments about the Army wanting Jimmy out of the picture. He's my personal hero. Hard working class man...who gets the porn star!!!
-
I may be interested if on Sunday, but it'd be last minute call depending on if I can distract the kids and wife and sneak out. I'll keep an eye on this thread. Weather is supposed to be pushing 70's now!

just went to Gingerman this past weekend (10/2-10/3). Only my second track day in STT's Intermediate group. Just wanted to announce that I dragged knee for the first time. HOOT!! That is all...
