  1. My buddy down the street says he was approached by a guy when he was in Cleveland last week. He said the guy asked him about getting a bike sponsorship. Long story short, he applied for this "sponsorship" at their website last week and heard back from their site that he was approved all he had to do was activate his account by paying $140 up front then he would get the option to get anything based on their pricing tier up to $250 with a total maximum of $5000. I went over and looked at the page and it looks fairly legit but we all know shit like this could always be a scam. He doesn't do track days and is a straight up street rider. I find it hard to believe that a company would offer a sponsorship to someone who doesn't do trackdays. In return for the sponsorship he has to record a video and either post it or get it to the site administrators.

  2. My buddy got this in a storage locker auction hes curious what it come off of and how much he could get for it. I asked him if there were any serial numbers or part numbers on it but he says there wasnt one. Its obvious that its from some series of CBR and that its a gas tank.

  3. i thought i read someplace that if someone purchased 8 Ms would give them a windows 7 downgrade if they wanted. The general consensus in my circle of friends is windows 8 is developed to integrate with xbox and the newer microsoft phones and tablets.

    It goes without saying though, Microsoft releases on a Tic Toc dynamic. Tic is always the shitty releases, and Toc is known as the better release. XP was a Toc Vista was a Tic 7 is a Toc 8 is a tic, so Windows 9 or whatever they call it will be better than 8

  4. Sounds like it's time for a new wife and mother-in-law

    dont get me started

    Yeah but if your literally just walking it from house to house what's the big deal? I'm not sure how far apart the houses are in your area but here they are one after another.. Well it was a thought. She still looks cute regardless.. :)

  5. Very cute.. Now you must ride her from house to house on halloween so they get the full effect of the costume. :D

    I wanted to, god knows the weather was nice for it, but my wife said no. And i figured since my mother in law was there i would like to keep my nuts intact. My mother inlaw is scared to death of bikes.

  6. A degree in "Womans Studies" That means shes a fucking dumbass who actually bought into the whole song and dance about that degree being worth a shit so now shes looking to whore it up in order to pay her bills.

    Oh and that huffington article is from 2009

  7. My wife asked her what she wanted to be for halloween, and she originally said a police officer. Well looking at Meijer, and walmart, plus the costume stores they didnt have a costume that didnt cost 50+ for a kid, so we talked her out of it. She decided she wanted to be a biker chick instead. Im a proud papa...

  8. I would consult with an it career counseling agent and get their thoughts. If it goes as big as you say you might consider securing a salary position with a substantially good amount and go from there. Try to get a feel for if he wants an employee or an on call it tech guy. Try to see if you can get him to reveal what he would consider is a good negotiating starting point. You could always start off with the gear you know he will need submit the cost of the gear then submit the cost that you feel would be appropriate. Go slightly higher because if hes smart he will probably negotiate.

    It does sound like it could be legit. But to be safe i would try to get a position as a salaried employee. That way you dont have to worry about him stiffing you

  9. I love my gs3. Be warned its huge. If you got smaller hands you might have issues. A great alternative is also the Motorola photin q. Slighty smaller with a qwerty slide out keyboard. The gs3 is fast with is 1.5ghz cpu and a full gb of memory. If you end up going with either you wont go wrong. You will want to turn off a few of the stock options to save battery life. At stock settings ill go dead in about 6 hours

    On a full charge i have my battery life extended to about 15 hours. But its also depending on what apps you keep active and your wifi usage turned on. If you need help configuring it hit me up. There are also some videos on youtube on how to optimize it for best battery vs performance

  10. A lady who works for me, about the same age as me thinks my bikes are scary death machines. She tells me that I'm an excitement junky and to slow down & act my age. When told her all about our ride to Newark and points south, she replies that sounds scary and dangerous. I asked what she did that Saturday. Stayed inside and made vegetable soup it was too cold for anything else. I didn't know what to say.

    Should have told her you felt the urge to live life.

  11. Both of those areas are horrible for bikers. I usually speed ahead to get in front of traffic specifically for these reasons. Sadly I can see where you couldn't avoid it on the highway. You controlled yourself better than I would've so kudos to you on that. Had it been me, one of us would have visited the hospital.

  12. As far as deer round here go, its really like playing craps, You will crap out at some point. Just make sure your quick stop skills are up to par. Im about a 60 minute ride north west of dublin off US33, I tend to ride on the twisties on the SE part of the state. If you want flat and straight we got those too on the north and west side. but your probably looking to get into the twisties. There are always people looking for rider buddies

  13. 2010 Vstar 1300 with 2289 miles. Original owner was scared to death of it, previous owner let it go in a trade for a custom built 69 GTO. The bike has a clean ohio title, its a nice bike and has aftermarket pipes. Guy wants $7000 wont budge. He says the blue book is over 10k. Is this guy just blowing smoke, or is this a pretty decent deal? Ive never checked out a cruiser on the market to purchase. Ive always counted on my dad to let me use his Valkyrie. Im thinking about it but not sure, i wanted to see what people here thought about it.
