Thanks, the F4I

I have a few questions about riding in the fall, I know fall isn't over yet, but the leaves are just now starting to fall. How much of an issue are leaves on the ground? I ask this because I have no choice but to ride through tons of leaves on the way to work, the road I take only leads to my work and no placd else, so no one cleans them up. Are dry leaves a problem? I haven't had any issues so far moving around on the dry leaves. Wet leaves seem a little slick, but how slick are they? I had to stop on some wet leaves today so I just gave myself extra stopping room so that wasn't an issue, but is that something I should be concerned about? Riding in the rain, especially at night is somewhat an issue for me aswell. I have been riding with my visor up(I know, I'm a dumbass for that) because I cannot see out my visor at all. I just squint my eyes and hope I don't get hit by any rocks... Would rainex be a good solution? What method do you use? How big of an issue is riding on cold ground? Does it effect your stopping distance? I never thought of this till I read a thread telling people to be careful on a group ride due to the ground being could, but nothing else was mentioned about the adverse effects of the cold. Any other fall riding tips? I just want to be safe out there and I'm sure there are some other newer riders on here with these same questions, but they don't want to feel like a total noob for asking.

Aww, your too sweet I'm meeting up with the guy and his girl Friday in Eaton for a lil bike swap action. Hopefully things go smooth, if not I still got a couple offers and all winter long to look

There was some issue with the hard core college drinkers, I belelive it was alcohol poisoning if im not mistaken. The kids were drinking waaaay too much and weren't passing out due to the caffeine. I think it was the FDA that told them they either A) had to reduce the alcohol content or B) reduce the caffeine content before they could sell it again. it is now back on the shelves, although I cant remember which one they reduced nore do i.care because that shit was nasty. I could be wrong about the college kids, that's what I heard and never cared enough to research it, but multiple people told me that so it's what I'm going with, same goes for the FDA.

http://psychcentral.com/lib/2010/caffeines-effect-on-adhd-symptoms/ This doesn't hold any concert evidence, but it makes for a really good read. I can personally vouch for thi effect, but obviously there is no research on me lol. Riddilen has the opposite effect of people without adhd, it makes them really hyper and gives them the jitters. Well all adhd pills as far as I'm aware of have this effect on non adhd people, im not sure about the patches, but I would assume patches have the same effect. When taking ridlin if you have adhd it absolutely floors your ass, you can't eat, you dont want to.move or talk or do anything, you just want to be left alone. Sure it helps focus, but the side effects arnt worth it. Caffeine on the other hand doesn't floor your ass and turn you into a damn non face eating zombie like adhd medicine though. It just makes you calm and keeps you focused, there are no eating or emotional side effects. I'm not only speaking from personal experience, but being around other adhd kids and from non adhd kids that took adhd medicine.

I remember the first real energy drink before energy drinks existed kix and then there was jolt after that. Kix>bawls

Bath salts[1][2]*is the informal "street name" for a family of*designer drugs*often containing*substituted cathinones, which have effects similar to*amphetamine*and*cocaine.[3][4][5]*The white*crystals*resemble legalbathing*products like*epsom salts, and are called*bath salts*with the packaging often stating "not for human consumption" in an attempt to avoid the*prohibition of drugs,[3]*but chemically have nothing to do with actual bath salts. Well I'll be damned, learn something new everyday lol.

This right here sounds like your going in the direction of MC donalds. The first suit most people know is the hot coffe one, but meh that doesn't apply except for thr the obvious caution hot they put on the cup. The second well known lawsuit is them fat fucks suing McDonalds because their food made them fat.... Although McDonalds doesn't put a caution on their big Macks saying this product will make you fat, they have the calorie counter, but thats more of a less blatant warning when compaired to monsters current warning, which is on the product itself. Next thing we know the bath salt companies are going to be sued and held responsible for Turing retards into zombies... If anything monster may end up like most the other products where you have to be a certain age to buy it now, good riddens, them young kids don't need this shit anyhow.

Also, this may sound stupid but it's true or atleast it used to be true, shits changed over the years. Some doctors actually recomend caffeine for kids with adhd because it has the opposite effect on kids with adhd. We used to buy water Joe(caffeinated water) and mix it with tang for my stepbrother. I used to be allowed to drink pop in class even though everyone else was only allowed to drink water in class. I'm sure something like this won't matter in a case like this, but who knows

Some platoons do not allow their troops to drink monster/energy drinks, especially out in the field, due to it causing dehydrate and making soldiers fall out.

I drink at minimum 2 cans of Java monster per day and sometimes as much as 6-8+ energy drinks in a single day, but I try to limit myself to 60 ounces a day. I have wwp(heart murmer) and try don't bother me, but I don't usually eat/drink anything else with caffeine/sugar very often. I figure of the rigorous exercise from the military didn't kill me than meh these drinks should be no different(as far as my heart condition goes). I do think these drinks are bad for you, but probably not enough to kill someone. Here is what I think will go down... Monster is not responsible, this is a case of negligence. The parents knew the risk of these drinks, but yet let her drink them anyhow... Case closed. There are plenty of warnings about these drinks on the cans and on the Web, people know consuming too much caffeine/sugar can cause health issues. O.K. Probably won't be that easy, but anywho I'm siding with monster on this one.

I don't plan on trying to keep up with any bike. I'm sure more than a few riders here can vouch that being the fastest person or keeping up with the fast riders doesn't always end well. I'll ride my bike and if I go on a group ride next year sure I'll keep up on the straights to a point, sure I'll do what I can in the corners, but hell no I won't be trying to follow the guy that has the skill to go 40mph in a 15mph curve. A bigger bike to me will mean faster launch/passing times, although in MY OPINION the ninja is pretty damn quick to start, I leave all the cars in the dust without trying. More comfort on the highway and peace of mind for long trips. Faster cruising speeds on the highway(speed limits ya ya ya) I figure cruising at about 90-100 on the way to work or whatever will be a new option, sure the ninja can do it, but I don't feel comfortable keeping the bike at that high of a rev constantly, so I don't. Wider tire meaning more stability and easier to control while riding in the grooves. Last but not least I want to stunt and do wheelies and burnouts and show off at bike nights. I want to brag about the 217HP my bike his and how it's faster than a litter bike, I want to make up lies about me going no less than triple digit speeds through the dragons tail... Ok J/K on this last paragraph...

I just quoted the guys text directly, I prefer the term "upgrade" some prefer the term "aftermarket" I guess he prefers the term "custom" I will be finding more out about the bike tomorrow, so far here is what I know about the bike and the seller. 05 f4i with 7k miles & some aftermarkets, 1 scratch, never down, clean title, proper maintenance. The guys been riding for for 10 years and rides a 1000 now and this is his girls bike now and she is scared to ride it. Thats bout all I really know as of right now, we talked about meeting up to look at the bikes, but nothing set. His girl is interested in my bike as of right now and I gave them the video to my walk around. I wouldn't think there would be an issue after the walk around though seeing all 6 of my craigslist pictures show the scratched up spots and the craigslist description goes into pretty good detail about it all. I figure if I trade my bike + $1k for a nice low mile bike like that it'd work out good. I mean its practically new, only 1k miles per year on it. Shoot I put 500 miles on the ninja since I posted it a few days ago.

Another person from the Dayton area, welcome.

You skimmed too much, the guy with the 650 is still interested in meeting up and doing a straight up trade this weekend. I talked to 2 dealers about his bike with some questions, so I'm kind of or was kind of still considering it... Ya I know... But still... I might tell the guy today or tomorrow no thanks... Idk, im still kind of hung, but this F4I does sound pretty good if I can get him at $1k, which I prob can since I mentioned all the original parts, which I didn't mention on craigslist. The guy with the 600rr wanted $1.5k I told him im stuck at $1k max and that was that, so no need to worry about that bike now. Anywho here is a pic of the f4I He is gunna show the video I made(page 9 on here I think) to his girl and see what she thinks of it. He knows my bike went down at 10mph in ft ancient and knows about the scratches and whatnot as I have nothing at all to hide.

I got a local guy interested in doing a trade with a 05 f4i with 7k miles on it interested in trading for my bike. He says the bike is too big for his girl. I also got a guy from AZ(480 area code) interested in a trade with a 06 600rr 16k miles good condition. AZ area code anything to worry about? I can see IN/WV/KY ect being interested, but AZ? Quote from the guy with the f4i. I would have to have 1200 cash on top. Its totally custom. After market seat, windshield, turn signals, brake light, frame sliders, under tail kit, exhaust, br and new back tire. Plus stock seat, its been lowered but have stock link to raise it back. Ill post up pics of it tonight.

Thats almost as sexy as my hello kitty scooter
-
IP should have them in stock, or atleast something very similar that you can try on. I love my icon jacket btw.
-
Hmm... Probably the same kind orgasmo would carry by the looks of it

Hand grenades, pin pulled at all times.

As soon as they become available I will buy another one for sure, even if the riding season is over by the time yall get em.

I've only seen the third twilight, haven't seen the first two. I'm pretty sure the movie I'm thinking of is dawn of the dead though cuz remember when they are in the mall that 1 guy is hiding that fat zombie chick who just happens to be preggo and she ends up having the baby after she dies? Also I didn't think twilight had zombies, I don't even think that chick in twilight 3 had her demon baby yet? I dunno, I was kind of lost during the movie though, I'm sure if I watched the first 2 I would have known what was going on. Edit: on second hand I could be thinking of chucky and I just made up the whole prego dawn of the dead thing in my head? Someone want to confirm in batshit?? Edit 2: I would post the YouTube link, but it says not available in our country... Here is a screenshot though, I guess I didn't imagine it after all lol.

When his daughter was laying on him I was hoping she wouldn't bet, but when that preggo bitch at at end was giving him CPR I had the same exact though. I'm kind of hoping her babie eats her from the inside out next episode otherwise I have a feeling her baby is going to end up like that one chicks baby from dawn of the dead(or whichever zombie flick too place in the mall)
-
3 more may die but will others join up? That black chick seems pretty badass, but in the sneak peak the black chick and the blonde chick end up in in some kind of new base. Personally I'd like to see the Asian, the redneck, the black chick, the kid and Ursulas 2 girls stay alive, screw everybody else. The redneck should be the leader anyhow, not Rick, I hope he gets killed off. Doubt it, bout I wouldn't miss him.
