Brian, I'm north of Dayton and Sam is in Massillon ( next door to Canton ). I'm able to meet you halfway this weekend. Give me a reasonable midway meet point and time man. Urbana area maybe?

Thanx folks! Nothing special, just another day on planet Earth and it snowed on my Bday as usual

layoffs, opportunities, uncertainty and anxiety
Helmutt replied to Gixxus Christ!'s topic in Dumpster
Sucks to hear about all this Sam. I've had issues like this with several past employers. I was raised to work any job I'm given to the best of my ability, not scantily lull my way through the workdays, giving just enough effort to retain the job. To make myself most valuable. That rumor spreading and gossip at work is a waste of company time. To be on the team, or be gone. So when I see there are coworkers pulling slacker bullshit, it infuriates me that they dont put forth the effort they're capable of. All their lack of initiative does is load the rest of the team with more work. Most days I can fight off the demons in my head and bite my tongue. But when I'm always busting ass and they're not, just grinds my gears. Having issues stifling myself at my current job seeing that my bosses still allow this same shit happen. They simply lean harder on the good workers to take up the slack. This is obviously happening within a non union workplace. Had my bouts with unions back in the 90's at a heavy equipment dealer. Service dept was union, rest of the company wasn't. So, myself and a few others called for a vote. All of a sudden that handful of us were cut "due to downsizing" Majority of the employees had been bought out to vote it down, and management saw fit to rid the company of us initiaters. I hate people talking shit behind my back, but being all sweet to my face. Bring it to me and let's bury it, or get the fuck over yourselves. Anonymously leaving notes shows absolute zero integrity. Fake fucks cant rent a pair to confront the problem head on, so they handle it like kids? I've been warned a time or two about calling people out on their fuckheadedness. Didn't do anything physical, just invited them to the street after work for a meeting.....yeah, nobody came to my meeting I dont love my job, but it is satisfying work and our industry definitely has nowhere to go but up. We've grown 35% in just the last 5 years, way more than management dreamed would happen. I take pride in helping that dream mature into a daily reality and I truly hope you can find a position there, or a new company altogether, that can respect the type of valuable worker you appear to be. Good luck -
Rider dies after hitting pothole while traveling over 100 mph in Minnesota
Helmutt replied to Casper's topic in Daily Ride
Sucks to hear, but shit can happen in a split second at triple digit speeds. What's the deal with posting his employer? Afterall, what's his job got to do with it? Coworkers at my job know me by name. I just see no need to drag 3M into it RIP rider :rip: -
Ballsy move. Majority of the patrons weren't even phased by it, which just goes to show how much craziness is expected to be seen inside of a Walmart

Sharp ride. Dig that GP style exhaust. And not to be a buzzkill, but that rear sprocket is about shot bro. Cheap fix though, GLWS

You'll fit in just fine here

Is your real name Street, or should we just call you "tag happy"?

Got this in an email from AMA Pro Racing....just an FYI for those that didn't know. AMA Pro, IMSA & NASCAR Team To Launch Live Streaming Site Coverage Compliments Extensive Slate of Television Broadcast Options DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. (March 12, 2014) - Motorcycle races at Daytona. Sports cars at Watkins Glen. Modifieds at Langley. For race fans, if they couldn't make it to the track and the event didn't have television coverage, there hasn't been an option to watch all the action. Until now. AMA Pro Racing, IMSA and NASCAR announced today the launch of FansChoice.tv, a ground-breaking collaborative digital platform that will live stream various races not covered by broadcast television, giving fans new opportunities to follow their favorite series. It also will enhance fans viewing experience at the track with the ability to watch multiple cameras on their tablet or mobile device, and access archived broadcasts on demand. The site's first on-track coverage will be AMA Pro Flat Track racing on Thursday from the quarter-mile dirt oval at Daytona International Speedway. Coverage of DAYTONA 200 Week will continue with both AMA Pro Flat Track and AMA Pro Road Racing Divisions on Friday, and will conclude with the 73rd running of Daytona 200 for AMA Pro Road Racing set for Saturday at 1 p.m. FansChoice.tv will be the official home for AMA Pro Road Racing and AMA Pro Flat Track events in 2014. The site also will provide coverage of selected IMSA and NASCAR's touring and weekly series events. "This is a great opportunity to bring all the action from the track right to the fans," said Michael Gentry, chief operating officer for AMA Pro Racing. "FansChoice.tv is a revolutionary platform that gives race fans all over the world unprecedented access to watch their favorite series wherever we race. This is fantastic news for all of our AMA Pro Road Racing and AMA Pro Flat Track fans." FansChoice.tv is a free site that puts fans in the director's chair, allowing them to choose from multiple viewpoints alongside Live Timing & Scoring data and audio commentary from the track's PA system. During selected AMA Pro events, produced streaming coverage of race sessions will be offered as an added bonus to the fans. IMSA coverage will include streaming of its developmental and single-make series, as well as selected practice and qualifying sessions for the two IMSA national sports car series, TUDOR United SportsCar Championship and Continental Tire SportsCar Challenge that are part of the recently-announced five-year agreement with Fox Sports. "FansChoice.tv will be a good additional resource, and possibly home, for some of our series," said David Pettit, IMSA vice president, marketing. "We're looking forward to exploring the platform this week during our Sebring event and ultimately this site will serve as a diverse home for motorsports." Several NASCAR Whelen All-American Series tracks already have committed to live streaming their weekly events, including Langley Speedway in Hampton, Va., Lake County Speedway in Painesville, Ohio, and Evergreen Speedway in Monroe, Wash. Fans will have the ability to select from multiple cameras positioned around the tracks during these events. "This really is going to be 'Fan's Choice,'" said George Silbermann, NASCAR vice president of regional and touring series. "The partnership between AMA Pro, IMSA and NASCAR means the fans will have access to more racing than ever before. They will be able to choose from a variety of series and tracks, and be able to follow their favorite drivers virtually wherever they race." FansChoice.tv will also carry select NASCAR K&N Pro Series, NASCAR Whelen and Whelen Southern Modified Tour races, as well as off-track events such as the NASCAR Whelen All-American Series Awards and NASCAR Night of Champions Touring Series Awards in December. More tracks and events are expected to be announced at a later date.

A matte black frame and 6 gallon fuel tank would make it far less lackluster
-
Not at all bro, I already bought one Star from Brian a year or so ago, and this would just be a spare/alternate. They are damned nice lids, and at this price its a sweet deal.
-
Brian, I'd like Sam to get the Hess if you're dead set on only selling one of these. He had dibs on this deal. But if you're in the market for a new lid, I'll take the matte carbon.

PM me your paypal and I'll shoot you my address

If you keep flappin your e-jibs and spewing counter contributory bullshit like a poo flingin monkey whilst swingin' on Caspers nadbag......we'll be glad to neg rep you into a state of infamy never before seen here. So stick with what you're good at, if not just for our sheer entertainment value alone
-
And I want the Carbon matte, just need to get together.........so it looks like you'll need to buy a new lid Brian

Oldschool rode to WV for a hotdog. He sent me the route a couple years ago, but I don't remember exactly where it was......but where ever it was, they must have the best damn hotdogs on the planet for an all day ride there and back

This just reminded me of one thing that boggles me brain pan.....ZX14's ( at least the first gen 06-11 ) are produced with ONE fan on ONE side of the radiator? Connie's have dual fans and with the ZX14 curb weight at 525 wet, it wouldn't exacltly cringe at an added pound or 2 I picked up a couple spare fans over a year ago to add a 2nd one on mine, just never pulled the radiator to mock up a bracket for it. I stay away from town as much as I can though, so engine heat isn't much of an issue for me usually
