  1. I just came across this: http://gma.yahoo.com/blogs/abc-blogs/kanye-west-says-kim-kardashian-more-influential-obamas-172716499--abc-news-celebrities.html
  2. What would you expect from someone that would name their child North West? He ain't playing with a full deck.
  3. Depending on cost and schedule, I may be interested.
  4. I am still commuting on the bike. I won't "put it away" for the winter.
  5. A politician saying a less than honest statement? It can't be true.
  6. Put him in front of a jury of parents, and it would most likely not be considered cruel or unusual. Another option would be to not grant him special treatment, and let him spend some time in general population. If he goes in general population, the whole discussion of cruel and unusual becomes moot. It would be a win for tax payers.
  7. It isn't a cruel and unusual punishment if the violent offender uses similar force onto innocent victims. It isn't a statement to appeal to emotion, it is a fact. The original offender showed no mercy to the victims, so no mercy should be expected on his behalf.
  8. The violent offender does not deserve better treatment than the innocent victims.
  9. The guy raped and killed a 3 year old! Why make it humane? Kill him with .22 bullets. They are cheap. No shots to the head. Make it slow and painful to dissuade other perps from harming innocent kids.
  10. Would get smoked by a true adventure bike, but it is a pretty cool concept.
  11. Unless you buy and sell fixer uppers or rare bikes, motorcycles are depreciating assets. (I don't want to hear any disagreements from HD owners). With 70K on your 06, seems like you got your money's worth no matter how much you get for it. You could buy the new bike now and sell your old bike in the spring and get more $ for it. GLWS and enjoy the new ride.
  12. The scariest part is that earlier (before take off), they were at the same elevation.
  13. I called IP to make sure they had an exact part (gave size, details, and everything). The lady told me there were a bunch of them on the rack that she was looking at. I loaded up the kids to go there and pick up the part. When I got there, they didn't have it. I wasted 1.5 hours of my kids and my time. I had to order it from a competitor at a lower price from the internet. I try to frequent the area brick and mortar stores, but these kinds of things can get frustrating. I don't necessarily blame IP, but the "parts specialist" should have been more competent.
  14. Just when you think BMW can't possibly put the boxer motor in another variation of bike......
  15. You may want to hold off until the spring. You will get a better price for the bike. Although Craigslist can be a pain due to ride people, you may get the most $.
  16. True. That is why the sport touring bikes tend to be so popular with the iron butt riders. If I wasnt extremely happy with my C14, I would want another sport touring bike.
  17. The BMW K1600 GTL is a large touring bike that is supposed to be alot of fun to ride. It has more power than a Goldwing or HD, and it also has good handling.
  18. You can add John Hinderer to the list of Central Ohio dealers that suck. I came back to buy an overstock VTX 1800 that I had looked at the day before. They claimed to have "mismarked" the price. I took it off the bike, and showed it to the sales rep, and told them it had been on there at least a week. They begrudgingly sold me the bike at that price with dealer prep fees added on. The more frustrating thing was they kept making errors on accessory purchases.
  19. 4 cops, handcuffs, and mace. It seems that Penn State also doesn't give a damn for the whole state of Michigan.
  20. The wing is definitely sportier than most people think. I test rode one before I bought my C14. I had it up to about 95 mph merging onto a divided highway. I had to slow back down to the 55 mph speed limit. I spent the last 3 miles of the ride trying to reset the maximum speed shown on the bike's GPS system.
