  1. I wish i had won, the last two numbers on my ticket are switched. i have 919056, the winner has 919065
  2. You sure that wasnt a type-o cuz i have 919056!!!!! Congrats to the winner though. And good meeting the few that i did today. Hope to meet more in the future and do some group rides this summer
  3. I was the first one there and stayed till almost 1. Left due to rain coming but only about 20-25 bikes showed up. Hopefully more will show up later to support the site.
  4. 3300hp car, i might have to leave early just to see this, if Bryan doesnt mind me standing around. New to ORDC so this would give me a chance to meet some locals and maybe get some new riding buddies
  5. really no different than quaker stake and lube, just bud light dosent sponsor it, but you still get the drunks
  6. i live 2min, my bike wouldnt even be warmed up by time i got there
  7. www.servicemanualsgsxr.com/ Free just have to download in pdf. format
  8. Kahoots, food, music and tits all in one place lol
  9. Hocking Hills, depending on what part of columbus you live in. The outskirts of plain city, marysville, urbana, mechanicsburgh, and north lewisburgh have some fun roads. 296 was my fav. Thats really the only down fall to living in columbus is the drive you have to make to get to the fun, but once you do its worth it.
  10. Yeah got the coupon too, just wish that lift could be easily moved or folded up out of the way when not in use like the kendon ones do.
  11. ive seen a 99-02 r1 body style bike in person that was all chromed out like that, look like they dipped the whole bike in the take. Looks even more stupid in person, especially when its not clean. Funny thing was the owner had spent all that money in chrome and it sat in a bike shop for more than a year cuz it had electric problem and wouldnt run right.
  12. You could go to the course, but theres lines all over the place and it will just confuse you. I dont think you will find what you are looking for without the instructor manual. She should get time on the bike before the test. I took the msf course through a harley dealership and the riding portion of the test was so much shorter than the one the bmv gives, but i also paid $295
  13. I know my grandfather took a washer apart for the motor and made a grinding wheel out of it
  14. biggest difference with the street glides that i know of is they went with a bigger motor (i think) and added a 6speed. I also believe they are lower and so smaller changes. I was really interested in one this past fall but i had just bought a house and didnt want to buy a new harley too, so i bought a 08 gsxr 750 off my boss.
  15. The auto parts stores sells a spray can of bumper sticker and label remover, ive use that and the point of a knife to peel the sticker off then the spray to get everything else off. As far as replacing, a honda dealership can get them but they will be expensive. look around on the net too
  16. Got my gsxr 750 out for the first time this year. Started right up. Glad to finally get on it, it has been a long winter. Now i just have to get the oil changed and get my recall taken care of and im good to go for the year. Any other gsxr k8-k9 owners have there recall taken care of yet?
  17. Tell him $20 and you will mail it for free!!!
  18. Im sure it would be fine, any helmet is better than no helmet
  19. My motorcycle safety class instr told us to replace bout every three years of wearing. Mainly because of sweat. He described it like this. The padding "foam" that protects your head is basically the same thing your mcdonalds coffee comes in, stryofoam. He said that your sweat wears down the foam like liquid would in a coffee cup. Makes sense but dont know if it would be true. also if your helmet has been dropped it can dent the foam inside because it is design to give, while the shell may not crack it. again i heard this in a safety class, so take it for what you will. I know that after two season of riding in my helmet the side padding has wore out and it gets loose, but in my i can replace all the basic padding.
  20. I dont buy it either, especially the temp thing. The hotter it is the more pressure that builds up, think of your lawn mower gas cans in the summer. They expand
  21. Carb cleaning is good, but have you replaced the fuel line and all the lines on the carb? One of those can be clogged.
  22. Do you have attic access in your garage? If so just put two 2x4 screwed together across the opening of the attic and use a come along with some tie downs, thats what i do or do the eye bolts. Just make sure everything is rated to hold the weight of your bike. pit bull also makes some jack stands that fit under your rearsets but you have to lift the bike onto them.
