  1. When I bought my old fzr it was red and had red accent lighting. After I had it painted blue I put blue lights on it. I ride home from work at midnight every night and liked the fact they made me more visible. I have rode past countless local cops, staties and sheriffs in both configurations and even got pulled over by a sheriff for speeding and never once heard a thing about my lights...and I got off with a warning for speeding...it could be that every cop I rode by/past was the coolest, motorcycle-lovingest cop ever, or it could be they don't give a shit around here. Now if you're in a dinky shit town with really bored cops you may have issues.
  2. So want these for my basement shop I plan to build. Where the hell is old new Albany?
  3. Hopefully finish the superhonda 850 cam-a-lam-a-ding-dong engine and get it back in the frame, then on to the tl, gotta blast and repaint the tank to match the rest of the bike, rebuild clutch with hydraulics and Barnett springs, swap stock brakes for some 6 pot Busa calipers and 5/8 master cyl, replace windshield, steering head bearings, chain, sprockets....I'm sure there's more....and also finish half of my now waterproofed basement into a bar and workshop. I'm pretty sure ill get about half of all that done.
  4. The home invasions are being done by the three nomads, presumably under clay's direction. If you look closely on the first episode of this season when they are patched over, one of them puts his foot up on the others shoulder. During the home invasion scene you see the same shoe....also the former nomads are shown dumping clay's safe at the end of last weeks episode.
  5. Just a bit outside on that last curve....at least you dumped her in the grass.
  6. Welcome! Big group ride next weekend.
  7. I had no issue swapping the clip on mine, which puts the thumb studs towards the seam of the leg of your pants so they don't tear up the back of your hand. Allen wrench is 1.5 mm. Fits like a glove.
  8. I got my first bike at 14 yrs old, before that I had a moped. It was a 72 zook tc90. (i still have it). I rode the shit out of it in the dirt and the street and made lots of fuckups and learned lots of lessons and lost a good deal of skin and blood. I didn't ride between the ages of 18 and 25 because my life was a fucking mess, but when I got my shit back together I didnt go out and buy a supersport. I bought a 72 Honda 500-four, rode that for a season, then upgraded to a 73 Honda 750-four, a bad-ass bike in its day, a slow relic by current standards. I stayd with that bike for 5 years or so before progressing through more modern, more powerful bikes until my current ride the tl. I can say without a doubt that if I had jumped from the 500 (which has comparable power and much shittyer braking and handling than the 250) to the tl1000 I would be a fucking grease spot. Keep the putter another year, take the Msf course, learn more, practice more. If high revs on the freeway are an issue put a smaller sprocket out back. In my experience if everyone is giving you the same advice, especially guys with decades of experience, its probably the right advice.
  9. My dad bred bostons when I was younger. Awesome breed, very smart, super atheletic, huge lovers. Purebreds tend to get bad cataracts and go blind after 8 yrs or sometimes less. Other than that, great dogs. Get a bitch and don't spay her! It takes all the youthful energy out of them. They only go into heat twice a year, we would just put little cloth diapers on her. It's worth it for how much better of a dog you get.
  10. Thanks Don, I honestly have no idea how I landed her, being the insufferable prick bastard that I am.
  11. While riding in a large group of hd bikes I've had hd riders actually retract their wave and then re-extend it after they pass me. Coming the other way...
  12. Too bad he doesnt have a Kat 600 head....
  13. Welcome to the circus. 250r is a decent beginner bike but you will likely yearn for something with more power and capability/comfort on long rides and freeway. Msf course is a good idea, tho I never took it. Main thing is to invest in some good gear and wear it EVERY TIME you get on the bike. That being said, congrats on your first step into the world of motorcycling. If you don't get scared off after the first time you wreck/lay it down, it will no doubt consume your time and money as it has ours. Also don't take these limber-dicked jerkoffs too seriously, we poke fun an kid a lot on here but we're all pretty cool with each other....except ringo.....and exarch.....and that crazy skull crusher fag...nobody likes him.
  14. Monster cables are a huge ripoff. They just put more insulation on the speaker wire to make it look thicker. I go with 14 ga off the spools at radio shack. The ugly brown stuff.
  15. Have to mull it over...the only pistol I'd considder letting go is my cz 40b....and Idk if I wanna let her go at all even tho I never carry it and rarely shoot it.
  16. I bought an entire klipsch surround system a few years ago for $300 or so. Sub, center, fronts and rears. I will admit the sub is a bit weak, but I have a Sony 120 watt 12" I bought like 14 yrs ago that still works great. I run it all with a Sony digital 100w/channel receiver I got new for around $250. The whole thing sounds great in my and everyone who's heard its opinion. The speaker package I got I believe is the hd300 series...my cousin dropped thousands on his 7.1 receiver and some high dollar speakers and it doesn't sound any better than my setup.
  17. 2x4 or 4x4? What motor? Prefer pistols, shotguns or rifles?
  18. Anything in ruger .204.....grenades small animals, just destroys them.
  19. Sorry Paul, nephew....I tap this shit out at work between naps and assuring planes can stop when they land, sometimes I miss something.
  20. Eh, they baliff or whoever he was fired a little early.....I would have given the kid a Chan e to fuck off, and then when he didn't I'd taze the little fucker with a grin.
  21. *solder.....not sodder or sauder.....solder....it says it on the package.
  22. How much for the turtle sandbox in the background?
