  1. We should totally get together and drink beer and fix bikes....
  2. My bike isn't (as) ugly anymore.... maybe I should look into some kind of vicious reptile to lash to it while it's unattended. ...
  3. Every shitbag fuckup of a barn find bike I've resurrected 'ran great before we stored it'. Always assume that they threw hammers at it and pissed on it while they 'stored it'. If someone cared about the bike it would be in running condition.
  4. Removed the touring luggage and bathed her...she looks like a sport bike again. Didn't ride far, just to my dad's in tallmadge and back.
  5. New shoes and check the actuators and springs inside. Nothing really to rebuild there. New cables wouldn't hurt. Chain, sprockets and tires are probably the main safety concerns after the brakes.
  6. Slab jacking is not an option as the patio is one piece and the slope is graded into it. The saw cuts don't go all the way thru and it will just be easier to take the water from the edge of the patio to a french drain.
  7. I appreciate your well wishes and advice but what I really need now is warm bodies with shovels.
  8. I am csc. Crazy sk...you get the idea. Yeah rims wheels same thing. I'm looking to trade as well.about to head out on the bandit, text me at 3303389708 and let me know what you wanna do, I'll get you back when I stop somewhere.
  9. Looks like 79 has 35mm forks so it should be a direct swap on the front end, but I just rebuilt my forks and had the lowers powder coated black so idk about trading entire front ends. Just swapping wheels is tricky because the brake is different between sohc and dohc models. You can bring it over tho, and we can figure something out. I have access to a lathe and mill and I'm a damn good machinist
  10. I want comstars. I have 2 spoked rears, a 17 and an 18 and a 19 spoked front. first number in thr tire size is the width, 2nd is the profile as a percentage of width and third is rim size.
  11. I think I may take the luggage off the bandit and give her a bath.... it'd only been a year and change..
  12. I live in massillon. Drive though some time and you'll see that the city clearly gives zero fucks about the street. I have to do a french drain anyway, don't have enough drop between where the grate has to go and where the pipe has to end for it to flow properly.
  13. My issue is my head being so low and having to tilt my head back to look forward, it does bad things to my neck. I'll stick with sporty standards.
  14. My bike is so ugly nobody wants to steal it. Ultimate sleeper.
  15. I'd buy it up on a salvage title if I didn't hate the ergos of the daytona. Outstanding bike but I'm too old and beat up.
  16. I'm not tall (5'8.5") but I'm a long-armed chubby fuck and the daytona was just uncomfortable. Bars too low, seat too high.
  17. This or was that a manhole cover I saw? Or maybe the horribly uneven concrete grabbed his tire the wrong way. At least he's ok and only minor damage to the bike.
  18. Ducrx is always a great experience, and now pauly offers three free shakes with every tuck!
  19. Scooter....to remind him of his homeland...
  20. He rented a beamer in cali, k model I think...
