    Wish me luck

    That sucks man, when i did mine back in the day they had a practice lot set up too, and told guys that failed to go practice and get to the end of the line if they wanted! They were super cool though, didnt even fail the guy that pulled an endo in the emergency stop part on a cbr cause his feet didnt hit the ground until the bike stopped and he technically didnt dump it. I think that was the first stuntah I ever saw
  2. I don't know but you might want to try www.tmcf.us Toledo Motorcycle forums, there are some guys there with dirt/tards/4 wheelers etc that may be able to point ya in the right direction. howdy from Northwood btw...
  3. math much? there were 115 questions
  4. Sooo code 2 = doughnuts are coming out but not quite there, you have time and code 3 = they are done and gonna be cold?? j/k I grew up in a smallish town in the middle of a cornfield and we saw cops blowing red lights all the time...only to see them sitting there bs'ing w/ the other cop on duty, or a buddy at McD's or something. So I guess maybe the better question would be, is if I witness this and send it "somewhere" are these codes logged and confirmed?? Just asking, you folks do a job I wouldnt want in a million years and I appreciate that. In all the times I've been pulled over in the last 20+ years only 2 cops that I remember were complete douches, but I have seen some do very questionable things like asked above. Now in said small town where I grew up the last thing you wanted to do was piss off one of the few cops there, but I don't live there anymore and don't drive like the idiot teenager I was then so I wanna
  5. I don't know man, I used to rock the viffer in my ray bans and a t-shirt....sometimes even shorts I grew up tho...and we're still together
  6. bwahahaha # You think you can outrun [a] a police paddy-wagon. a police cruiser. [c] a police pursuit car. [d] a motorola. sound familiar??????? and how many times have I seen this: You decide to make your mark on the net. So you: [a] post something about riding a "spout" bike. btw: Your score indicates that you are a buffoon who doesn't take motorcycling nearly serious enough. Your test answers seem a bit skewed however. Are you sure you properly answered ALL the questions on the form? meh to many questions and i had to finish so I could leave work

    More HD BS

    And why would that be a bad thing? Actually it seems "standards" are on their way back, My guess is because people have finally come to realize that having your legs straight out in front of you is not always more comfortable, oh yeah and having real brakes and stuff is nice too. I dont hate HD, just the dumbasses that know nothing about bikes other than what the salesguy told them when they bought theirs, vomiting mis-information to compensate for their little weinies... shut up and ride is what I say
  8. ???????????????? Is there a story hidden in that statement? granted it can be a PITA in city driving/aggressive riding but rotate it out of the way if your heading for one of those situations if it bothers you
  9. LOL and I ride a Honda! but then again I really do hate the civic ricers...they all love to rev at me in my non-sport package 6 w/ an actual real transmission and the baby seats in the back.
  10. If your just looking for rewards, you can try out like an Amazon.com or buy.com card, we had one for a while and it worked out nice cause they'd send ya 50 bucks per whatever the amount charged was, maybe a grand?? we'd just save em up all year and have a kick ass xmas more or less for free cause you can pretty much buy anything there. Back when I traveled for work alot cause then I could double dip skymiles and hotel points....gotta play the system, just don't let it bite you in the ass like others have mentioned.
  11. +1 about the same price, I'd only save about 40 bucks a year if I dropped down to liability only.
  12. C'mon they bitched about the "i like square butts" ad too...seems folks should put all that energy into shit that actually matters.

    Rubber.

    +1 ran these before and they wear much better than the current road attacks I got on. Never had any slipping issues but I don't ride that hard, excellent in the rain. Seemed to me like they liked to "fall into" a turn so the first time you lean her in will probably be way different then your used to on the conti's. I prefer they way the Conti's lean but if your a more aggressive rider the metz's may be for you!
  14. That won't work either, if the bill has an outstanding balance when they shut it off vzw wont activate it. Stops the crackheads from getting a phone using it to death never pay the bill let it get turned off and selling it, free phone plus get paid! Well it doesnt stop them from doing it, it just fucks the people who buy it....
  15. yeah typically the GPS isnt activated like that unless 911 is dialed or you have some kid tracker software installed. You say VZW won't help you???? Did you tell them the phone was stolen? They should have immediately frozen the account. Call the PoPo, maybe vzw can track it with a warrant??
  16. I love when someone mines up a gem like this....
  17. ROFLMAO....tru dat but its fun to dream

    Thin Helmet

    Yeah cruiser-boi didn't look so cool in front of his girly after that...can't take all the credit got the idea somewhere else just dont remember who. It was before Gore invented teh interwebz. Guess he didnt like the idea of trying to punch someone with a helmet on either cause I rode off in a very uneventful manner I still have that RF-700 though if you want to touch it and feel its glory
  19. Well hopefully this bike comes out as a 1200, I've heard in the rumor mill they wanted something to replace the viffer and the XX...maybe this is it? I"ll believe it when it's sitting in the showroom but this could be a decent seller, and a good base to expand into ST territory since the new concours and fjr are tearing that bike up in the mags.
  20. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_GQxC7VpuCo Sorry if repost but saw this the other night on TV....finally started thinking of a trade

    Thin Helmet

    I personally look way better with a helmet on, darker the faceshield the better.... If you're gonna wear a helmet "for your son" might as well get a good one. You can find those eggshell 1/4 helmets for 20 bucks and use a sharpie to scribble DOT on it if you want or do you want something that will actually protect you? Honestly I don't give a rats ass who wears one or who doesnt, but the dumbasses that make fun of me for wearing one get an earful, if you ride with morons like that I suggest you stop doing so...I actually head-butted a guy once with my helmet and said "see if you had one that wouldn't have hurt" Anyway who are ya trying to impress? I wear mine religiously now partly because of my kids, so I can relate to you, and one of the reasons is because I NEVER want them anywhere near a bike without a helmet, preferably full face so buy something that actually works "for the children"! Set the example NOW!!!!
  22. So you like them pre-op????? whatever floats your boat I guess. OP: just take it slow, you'll be fine. My wife HATED bikes but will hop on occasionally now just because I didnt do anything squidly her first ride. Just tried to be smooth. Now I can creep up to 75 or so before she notices
  23. ^^^ Is correct And the HC should not be causing any problems on the BB...I have a 4 gig in mine with no issues synching, same with the wife's Pearl.
