Wouldn't mind riding down depending how long the route is.

lol

taint tickler

How are coaches expected to determine which plays to review? They are at least as busy as officials. The system has been broken since day 1, it doesn't matter what team it is against, a shit call is horrible to watch. How about we do it like the romans, crowd determines the outcome.

Announcers review every play and make commentary before the next play is set, there is no reason the officials cannot do the same without a delay of the game.

Driving across to get to the infield is scary enough

I agree, but it just goes to show how arbitrary the rules are. If it was ruled a fumble, it is an automatic review. If it happened 10 seconds later, automatic review. The browns player was literally a yard had and a half away from the ball when he finally went down...painfully obvious wheb viewing from the TV camera angle. I don't get the half implementation of box reviews and the challenge system, using it part of the time is admitting refs are fallible, not using it all the time is denying integrity to the game.

If it wasn't for a shit call(down by contact instead of obvious strip) just before the two minute warning, it would have been and interesting last 2 minutes.

8 turn overs and the browns managed to keep it a close game

any other concerns or requirements before doing the race school? Think I'll be doing it the first or second track day

idk about riding down.....I drove down 77 to get to SC and I got the feeling I would have too much fun on the bike through WV

pretty sweet but for 4k I'll pass

Not to be argumentative, but if you are careful, there is no chance of damaging the rod with the ratchet straps and hooks. The spacer should never even contact the rod. One hand holding the spacer centered, second one clicking down ratchet straps side to side; once the bottom of the nut is exposed; with a plate, the process of removing the cap will be the exact same. Or, if you have an extra set of hands, one person holds the spacer centered while the other breaks the cap loose, screws it off, pulls out the rod, and releases the straps. If you are not careful and leave the cap torque over, there is a good chance you could damage something, but if you are not careful using the spring compressing tool, you can do the exact same thing. I may make the compression tool if I am disassembling forks regularly, because it does cut down a little bit of the time involved. I'll be refreshing the fluid/pressure in the rear before the season starts, just so I know my starting point and any adjustments I make are not based on some unknown shock oil. I've been searching around a bit trying to find a good starting point for fork height and shock length, but all the info I'm finding is for 06+ 600's.

Just went racing last night. Old buddy let me run his 2wd B4, came in 4th out of 8 buggies. Track was so busy we didnt get any time to test between heats, so adjustments were made on the fly. Finally got it handling well for the mains, but I loosened up the slipper too much and didn't have any punch coming out of the turns. Compensated by running wide lines entering and exiting turns to carry momentum, but people kept shoving their nose up the inside and forcing me out wide. Was a good battle and a fun time even without winning.

How long does the trip normally last? Think I'm down to 4 days vacation till july, and at least one of those days is going to be spent at mid-ohio.

Instead of shopping, Black Friday morning was spent switching springs and new oil in the forks. Got everything done with stuff I had handy in the garage: Compressed the spring with a ratchet strap and two S hooks that happened to be the right size. I planned on making a fork spring compressor, but this was too damn easy. Made a fork oil level syringe by taking a piece of aluminum and drilling a hole through it, then drill and tapping a hole perpendicular to act as a pinch screw. Shove some copper tubing through at 102mm and lightly tighten the screw. Add tygon tubing and a syringe and you can set oil level with the best of em. Finally to hold the fork I thought about a few methods, but settled on using the clip ons. Placed one of the brackets vertical in in a vice with a couple pieces of wood to act as soft jaws, installed the clip on tube, then installed the second bracket onto the tube horizontally. Worked like a charm. You could use this method without having a vice. Work on one fork at time with the other still on the bike; attaching both forks together with a clip on tube & brackets. If you cant tell, I hate buying single purpose tools. Rather use the tools and materials at hand to make something that works just as well.

the Josh Pit....lol

Happy Thanksgiving!

The one on clist has bigger wheels and a jack(wtf for?) on the front in addition to being assembled, titled, and add the wood. But on the other side of the coin, you are also getting something someone else put together and will have to rework it to be sure the bearings are greased and the thing wont fall apart and strand itself. Not saying it is worth the asking price, but I would not sell mine for the price I paid for the materials.

Sounds like someone needs a track bike

nice!

I dont understand people that ride like that; if you cannot maintain your lane, what makes you think you can keep the bike on the road?

Wow, video paused to load right as the closing radius appeared and I knew he was absolutely screwed....didnt expect him to stand perfectly upright Think he even saw the 30-> sign, or was he still thinking about the car he almost road straight into if it was 5 seconds earlier or later?

depends on settings, computer, video quality and verification checks that seems long though I'd lend more help, but I havent used the software in a long time
