  1. Yeah but those flames made it look fast!!
  2. I work at Joseph A Bank in Dublin and we need an assistant manager, as well as some part time sales.
  3. All of this comment. Also, anything from Adele. Can someone shut her the fuck up already?
  4. Yeah that was a random encounter for sure! That thing is LOUD!
  5. I have decided to try out some steel wool packing material. I will try to get a before and after video to see if it is worth it (probably not).
  6. Yep. I'll grab it. Was wanting to get one for my GF for her burfday.
  7. I got a mac 4-1 for my bike, but I think it is WAY too loud. I love the weight loss over the stock exhaust, so I was wondering if anyone had any experience swapping baffles, and what I should do to acquire a deeper and quieter tone.
  8. I don't bother to speak to my father, but if here were like yours I certainly would have. Glad you got to have those good times.
  9. Yamaha just came out with a 900 triple. Sharp looking bike. Finally saw one in person yesterday.
  10. Excellent! I will likely need it within the next two weeks Just to get it out and on the stand for a little while. Just doing head gaskets on a subaru. Shouldn't take too long.
  11. Anyone have either I can rent for a month or so?
  12. Back in 2007 I had a good friend with a 1981 Suzuki 440ltd that was in decent shape. I helped him get it running after a few years of sitting, and asked him if I could take it around the yard. I felt how easy it was to control so I took it up the street and back. I had absolutely loved it. He had offered it to me for about $500 back then and I should have jumped on it. He passed away a little over a year later when he was ejected from his car, through his windshield, and landed face first in a tree. His father kept his bike since that was something they did together when he was of age to ride. I had really started to miss him in 2011, so I decided to get a bike. And thus, I have my 82 xj650. I know he would have loved it. And for the record, I always told him I was a better driver than him. (and yes, he would laugh at that)
  13. I'm about 3500 in the MR2. 80 is right at 4k. In fifth. fml.
  14. Yeah that is a bit of a ride! I am currently in the process of moving to Dublin. But yes, I would love some help. I have extensive knowledge of mechanics, but have no knowledge of carbs.
  15. MR2 lol! This can happen quite easily in these. The only open spot coming from the engine bay is where the shift cables go back to the transmission. With the air flow on these going under the car and up through the engine bay, it all makes sense. That arae is also right by the turbo, so if he had partially blown a gasket, it would be even more exaggerated.
  16. I can afford some down time. Apparently these are a total bitch to adjust and sync once they are back in.
  17. I have continued researching this and have come to the same conclusion. I will just rejet and run a K&N drop in along with the exhaust.
  18. I miss the Model Team kits. I had several of those, and a lot of the town and road plates.
  19. I have done a lot of reading this afternoon on the subject. Pretty much the only thing I don't understand is the rejetting process.
  20. Anyone on here do this, or know someone good that will? I can pull the carbs whenever and deliver them. They never covered carbs when I went to college, so I know jack shit about them. Oh, it's for an 82 Yamaha 650. All four carbs need cleaned, and I am planning on running pod filters and a different exhaust soon.
