  1. The one I had was street/dirt/snow. It was DOT so I would imagine it was at least somewhat street oriented for it's design.
  2. I used to wear a hybrid years ago. It was even the first lid I had a major highside while wearing. I used to keep it to show people that didn't think they needed to wear a full face lid. It was cracked across the chin and rashed clear around to the back from my crash but it did it's job and other than a mild concussion I was good. The one I had was the oldschool Bieffe sport 3 helmet. The pic is not mine but it's the exact same one I had (yep, same ugly colors also ). The early 90's rocked!
  3. I can't wait for my 22lr order to arrive. I am gonna turn that shit around and resell it. I can probably afford another bike with the profit. I have 5,000 rounds of Aguila SP Centurion on order. $250:bow:
  4. Are we supposed to guess the topic?
  5. To quote a famous comedy skit from Chris Rock. If the police have to come get you, they are bringing an ass kicking with them. >http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uj0mtxXEGE8
  6. Somebody needs to start voting for the days in April. I have to work May 18 and I would love to actually attend one of the dyno days.
  7. I got some bling for my 10/22. Hopefully it is going to shoot better than the stock setup. Put a Boyds' Blaster stock, a green mountain stainless, fluted, 20" match barrel and the Volquartsen drop in match trigger group in it. Got rid of that horrible plastic trigger housing Ruger is putting on these thing recently.
  8. The people who park in the left lane have never lived on the East coast between DC and New York. They don't know that the act of slowing down traffic can and has gotten people shot at and in most of those states will get you a ticket from the police regardless of your speed. They feel it is their god given right to clog up the passing lane even if they aren't passing. These days I am the crazy bastard in the far RH lane doing a steady 80mph. It's the only lane in the Columbus area that there is no traffic in.
  9. Don't worry, there will still be some self absorbed twat in the far left lane doing 60mph flipping off people that want to pass them.
  10. I know that feeling. My Triumph is still all apart waiting on suspension parts to come in. It's getting Racetech internals in the front and a new Ohlins rear. It's why you need two bikes. You never take both of them apart at the same time and life is good again. They do look sad tied off to the ceiling in the garage.

    Break in?

    From 10TV, they claim guns were taken.
  12. You guys just need to get out and ride regardless of the cold. They make gear for this cold weather and all.
  13. The hardest part of the conversion is going to be ammo. The standard spam can stuff is never going to shoot a 1moa grouping regardless of the gun. You will need to find the special sniper grade ammo cans or dedicate to handload for it. I have an M1 Garand that has been breathed on with the best parts money can buy. It still only shoots 4-5 inch groups at 100yards with ball ammo. If I feed it my handloads that have been tailored just for that rifle the group drops down to 3/4inch.
  14. It's not on a rope but they will stomp the crap out of you.
  15. Got me thinking about having some fun with a closeup. Yep, click on it to feel like your crawling into the barrel. It's a snub nose .357, picture straight from camera.
  16. Here is a proper shade of yellow on a Duc.
  17. Can't hurt to hit route 421 "The Snake" It's another 33 miles and 489 curves worth of good road.
  18. Have any use for Alliant Reloader 22? I have an unopened pound to put towards the 30-30 brass.
  19. Rode to work. I do like my new helmet though. A bunch quieter than the old one.
  20. Everybody knows that even when covered in plastic those old Mosins still smell like a Russians toenails.
  21. Some of my friends I work with are a bad influence. Went to the gun show today with no intentions of buying anything and was followed home by a vintage rifle. My Eddystone M1917 rifle now has its British cousin. I got an Eddystone P14 rifle (on the left). So yes they were both made at the same Remington arms factory in Eddystone Pennsylvania. The P14 rifle was made in late 1915 and chambered for the .303British round while the M1917 was made sometime in 1920 and chambered for the American .30-06 cartridge. It's been in storage for a long time and it is full of grease. I can see I have a lot of cleaning ahead of me before this one gets out to the rifle range.
  22. I worked at a Suzuki dealer back in 2002, at that time all bikes and quads came with full oil. Not sure since then though as it was only a temp job.
  23. I have used Rufus v1.3.2, allows you to make a usb boot disk running MS-DOS or anything you have sitting in an ISO file. I used it for making a bootable 8gb usb stick to take android off my netbook and put Ubuntu back on it.
  24. WWW.odcmp.com $200 per 500rnds. There are hoops to jump threw though.
  25. That's weird enough, old Russian money is probably not so popular these days. Not to try and compete but along the same lines of finding weird cash. I found this coin maybe 6 years ago. Not worth much but fairly cool. It's a Kenyan 10 shilling coin.
