  1. You don't have to immediately accept anything that they offer. You can think about it and get more facts to support that your bike is worth more than they claim it is. Don't let them rush you into an acceptance, if you have the time to spare. If they give you a hard time about it's value, you can develop a reason to go to the doctor to have your aching back checked out if you go very soon, like tomorrow. You could have some whiplash that hasn't showed up yet. They don't want to pay medical if they don't have to, and it adds up fast. Agreeing to what you value your bike to be could save them a lot of money if you have to start going to the chiropractor every week.
  2. Back when we took this ride >>> http://ohioriders.net/index.php?/topic/96348-the-tuesday-keep-the-sunny-days-acomin-ride/ This guy was on a Buell: Name: Dennis IBEW 683 Location: Marysville Oh Bike(s): 2008 Buell 1125R He's the one to talk to if anyone knows how to get a hold of him. .
  3. That would be like another whole motorcycle for me. Haha!
  4. That was the first thing that came to mind.
  5. Dude! I'm glad you didn't get jacked up worse than you did. Sorry about the bike. Heal up, take a rest, plan some track days, and get out to ride again. We can all learn something from this. I'm going to concentrate on learning how to properly take curves, for one thing. .
  6. I think I'll give that a try after my bars show up. .
  7. The internet is full of stories about the Red Cross keeping money for themselves that is intended for victims, from the 1989 San Francisco earthquake to the present day. >> Issues with where money donated to the Red Cross actually goes began long before 9/11. Allegations of keeping donated money go, at least, as far back as the 1989 San Francisco earthquake. Victims reportedly only received $10 million of the $50 million dollars donated. >> In 2008, the Washington Post revealed the fact that new CEO Gail McGovern was set to make $500,000 dollars a year with a $65,000 signing bonus >> "...One charity has stayed above all this for 137 years. The Salvation Army is unique among all U.S. charities for many reasons. Let,s start at the top. Commissioner Todd Bassett receives a salary just $13,000 per year (plus housing) for managing this $2 Billion dollar organization. By comparison, Brian Gallagher, President of the United Way receives a $375,000 base salary (plus numerous expensive benefits) and the Red Cross President Marsha Evans receives $450,000 plus benefits..." .
  8. It seems all my deleted personal messages have risen from the dead with this new change. .
  9. All three work for me. I'm using Mozilla, if that means anything.
  10. Wow! Looks good so far. We getting a radio? A pizza replicator? A beer dispenser? Ice machine? Smellavision? .
  11. Where you been, man? You missed roll call, breakfast, and the girls in the hot tub. .
  12. If I have my bike fixed by then, I might have an interest. I'm still waiting on handlebars to be delivered. .
  13. At Iron Pony, during the Yamaha demo days, a fellow told me about NESBA and what you get if you buy a new Yamaha. It's here if anyone wants to have a peek. Yamaha/NESBA Sportbike Track Day Program http://www.yamahamotorsports.com/sport/racing/nesba.aspx .
  14. Haha! I'm going to use that. .
  15. I wonder if the bike has a tendency to counter-rotate. The engine mounted on anything else would have a wide, stable stance. The bike, not so much. .
