Welcome to OR.

I realize this is guy to guy but please don't lead us down this trail again.

Blue what is the normal plywood thickness for an enclosed trailer? If I bought a cheap trailer with thin plywood would it be difficult to replace?

Looks nice, how much did you get it for? What manufacturer?

Thanks for the input Josh, Sena seems to make a good unit. I had never heard of them until I started looking into a buying new unit. I have a couple followup questions. Do you know if there is a technology change between the SMH5 and the SMH10 or is the tuner the only difference? Where was your SMH10 manufactured? I found one listed on ebay and it said Manufactured in DPRK (North Korea). That would be a big pill for me to swallow. I could not find that on there website. I plan to use my unit similar to the way you use yours, the bluetooth will be great! (I've been corded.) I recently got a new phone and plan to bluetooth for Nav and phone and MP3 for longer rides. The FM tuner is big for me because I like to listen to the morning news on my commute to work.

I'm in the market for a new communicator. I've been using a Chatterbox and am just tired of all of its issues and cords so it is time to move on. Here are my requirements: Built in FM tuner - I commute and it is nice to listen to music without messing with a second device. Bluetooth - nice not to mess with cords. Wired mic - I wear a full face helmet and the boom on the Chatterbox is a pain in the butt. As I see it this limits me to: Sena SMH5-FM Scala G9, Q2, Q3 Any others? If you have one of these let me know how it works, how good is the tuner, would you buy again and any regrets. Thanks for your help.

This sounds great! Hope to make it.

I may be wrong but isn't the Monster Energy Cup a points race this year?

IMO the win on Sunday sell on Monday business model is stale...no dead. The internet and the ability to reseach comparisons or current models is vastly superior to buying the model that won on Sunday. Why, for many buyers the first thing we are going to do is dump the can and intake to make the air flow and map the fuel. So we research performance after the mod. Second, unlike when this business model started a long time ago the racing bikes are no longer slightly modified stock bikes. They have completely reworked engines, shocks, brakes, etc. What remains stock? the frame? Informer buyers recognize this fact and know they are not buying the bike that was raced. IMO if Ducati wants to increase sales they should incentivise new dealerships to grow their distribution network. Do they even have a dealership in Cincinnati? Not that I know of, the closest that I know of is in Indy. The distance is a consideration for me when considering a new bike. Ducati has brand recognition and a strong base of loyal customers so build on that! But to agree with you yes I wish they would contribute to growing the road racing comunity and viewership.

The trailer I looked at was enclosed although the also sell open trailers. The roof was only about 5' high which is a plus when towing but a minus when entering. As I recall it was around $1400 but cannot find them on the website to confirm. Another plus was an "A frame" tongue, other minus it seemed to have thin plywood interior walls although I do not know what standard walls are.

Qatar round of MotoGP today on Speed at 3pm!

Menard is selling short 5x8's. Anyone have input on this trailer? super cheap prices.

Another '05 R6 Raven in Cincy??? Its been a long winter, I better check under that cover in the garage. Welcome to OR Welcome to Cincy Welcome to West Chester There are some nice on the east side and some nice roads on the west side but if you really want to have fun head to KY. Are you working at the West Chester or Evendale facility?

Go to their webpage and the payment information is at the bottom. I believe it is a PayPal account.

When I was in your shoes my first descision was if I wanted to invest in my career or my relationship. My gf (now wife for 12) at the time wanted to move also so it was a win-win. Only you can read what her luke warm response really means so figure that out first. If she has a good position that will complicate her feelings. If she is a keeper don't forget to consider her future pay raises in your overall income and not just your future promotions. As for money you would not be out of line to ask for the following: 100% of moving expenses (get an estimate) employer to pay for an apartment OR your mortgage for an agreed upon term employer to cover fees associated with the sale of your home Good luck with your descision.

Rationale? This bike will get you laid twice a day and three times on Sunday. Didn't Angelina Jolie ride an F4 in Gone in 60 Seconds?

I'm 5'6" and size 42. I always have trouble finding a suit that fits me in the limbs. So far I have found Fieldsheer to be the best solution.

But its not apple Pi!!! Bake another Pi in two years but make sure to get the "5" right.

With Daytona being the exception, the AMA site list times for all classes as 12am. I think the website is incorrect. Also on the AMA site it seems to indicate all Daytona races being broadcast by Speed. The Speed website only shows two races being televised, one friday at 6pm and one on Sunday at 1:30pm.

Too tall to fit me. GLWS

How tall are you and what does this measure from the bottom of the plates to the top?

More info on MTD. http://tracktalk.nesba.com/showthread.php?t=26829

Any updates on AMA coverage? Did the CBS deal go through? Any info on quailifying coverage?

^This is where I'm going with the question. Was there a split caused by this fiasco? If so, which side of the fence is this guy on?

Has anyone ridden with this group before? Is it a new org? I was searching for 2013 dates and found them running at Putnam and Black Hawk Farms. http://www.midwesttrackday.com/2.html It seems like an experience TD rider could get alot of seat time at one of these events. One would have to self regulate breaks.
