  1. Meh, pushrod 2 valve v-twin on a sportbike platform....didn't some Eric guy do that already?
  2. I knew a dude that had cf and died while waiting for a lung transplant. The school is just erring on the side of caution and covering their ass. If they were advised by a Dr that physical distance between people with the disease is the most effective way to.prevent them from giving each other.secondary infections then maybe that's the best course of action. So what if the kid has to change schools? ig fucking deal, I think his parents are assholes for trying to be media darlings over something that's honestly not a big deal. They have to transfer their kid to another.school 3 miles away. So what?
  3. Without the potential for abuse, power is worthless.
  4. If 1 & 4 have dirty plugs I would guess that coil is cooked...if they share one. Are you sure its oil? Soot and gas mixed looks a lot like oil.
  5. Welcome from massillon, I'd say let's meet up and ride but I have a lot of fixing to do before I ride again.
  6. No, it doesn't follow 100%, in the books the kid shoots Shane right after Rick finds the camp, and not because he's a walker, but because he tries to kill Rick.
  7. Just feel the pipes if you can get it to run for a minute. It will be pretty obvious which one isn't firing. ,
  8. I've read all the comic books, they don't stay at the prison long.
  9. What does the smoke smell like other than gas? Burning coolant has a pretty distinct aroma. How do you know one cyl isn't firing? Check the pipes for heat? If you can confirm a dead cyl, swap the plug wire from its mate, 1 to 4 or 2 to 3. If the problem follows the plug wire its a bad coil, if it doesn't I would check the injector. Aside from that you may have an issue with rings or maybe a bent valve, only a compression and leak down test will confirm that.
  10. Yeah, very tricky. Especially when you take the right hander too tight and end up way outside on the left hander. There's a road that intersects right at the apex and it steps up into 313. Once you drop into that step you're done.
  11. Happened on 313 right infront of the Seneca lake marina
  12. Love paladar, just wish it wasn't like an hour and a half away. Know what's good in Akron? Crave. My good friend Laurie is a chef there. The appetizers and entres are amazing but where they really shine is the desserts. If you haven't been, check them out, but be prepared to drop $50 apiece including a drink or two. Still totally worth it if you love incredible food.
  13. Once I stopped chipping lumber and turfing the ditch I did a quick check for broken bones and missing appendages. Once I knew I was ok I got up and stripped my gear off, grabbed some log and fired up a camel to mitigate the adrenaline shakes. This ain't my first BBQ. 12 hrs and many beers, tacos, cheeseburgers and shots later and having (with the help of my defacto brother in law) put the bike in and out of a pickup using 6 foot ramps, I'm sore as fuck and have huge bruises on my left knee, thigh, hip, forearm and shoulder. The upper body bruises I have cleverly hidden behind tattoos, the lower not so much. Got home and sold my old fridge and oven to some kid from craigslist...just what I wanted to do, hump my old shit up the basement steps, but it was a quick couple hundred bucks. Tomorrow I will ride the wave of wreck sympathy for as long as it carries me, hopefully an un-interrupted browns game and being excused from grocery shopping. Oh yeah, I proposed and she said yes, so I guess we're getting married.... Big day.....
  14. I did move a mighty big log...good thing it was with the bike and not my head.
  15. Went wide, hit gravel, low sided into a ditch, hit a log. There's a whole thread about it somewhere.
  16. That's the first time I wrecked sober. I was feeling confident in my skills after carving some tricky stuff on the southbound leg and keeping up.with the cool kids. 10 mph slower and a back tire that wasn't bald and I would have made that turn. Oh well, hard lesson.
  17. Yeah, lots of work to be done, that's the worst crash I've had, been lucky to get up and walk away every time.
  18. I'm in the truck nearly back to fair city massillon. Preliminary damage report is windshield, most of the front fairings, ram air tubes, fairing stay, exhaust, shift linkage, rear pegs, possibly sub frame, won't start or prime fuel pump so maybe tip.over sensor, kickstand sensor or connection somewhere in the front loom. Idk if my rims or forks are straight or not. Belly pan is trashed....will know more later.
  19. Yeah, my knee is almost as bruised as my ego. Big thanks to all the guys for helping me get the bike out of the ditch, offer condolences and gave me a ride 'mandem' to the nearest bar to soothe my body and mind with beer and cheeseburgers. Couldn't ask for a better group of guys to ride with....slower yes, better no.
  20. 50 mph low side into a ditch. Rolled a huge fallen tree over with the impact. Atgatt, I'm good just a sore knee and a little rib pain. Bike is pretty fucked, waiting on my ole lady and her brother to get down here with the truck.
  21. Eh, its only past the wear bars in the center, ill be fine. See you guys in an hour!
