I didn't get a book for the telefile this year. it looks like that was just way to easy and needed to be all fucked up...so they came out with the RITA Efile. and Ifile. there are no instructions with the papers I got in the mail and the website is just as useless. it's says efile but then it says on the paperwork to mail it in.. why can't they keep using the simple telefile stuff still??? damn that was so easy, all you had to do is fill in a few numbers and call the damn number and repeat the numbers in the phone...get refund in about 6-8 days. and what's all this shit about you have register every year to file taxes now? who are these fucking idiots coming up with all this stupid shit? https://www.tax.state.oh.us/PROD/IFileRegWeb/login.jsp ohio is has become a retard southern state..

samsung auto convergence for the win:D look in the tv's menu. if it's possible to adjust it will be in the menu somewhere. if not, you'll have to get it done by a repair man/woman.. did you try here?, http://esupport.sony.com/US/perl/model-documents.pl?mdl=KP51WS500 ok it looks like it has a auto convergence. it's in the owners manual from the link above. pg 33. the button is on the front panel of the tv. it's called flash focus.

this is what mine looks like, there's no way he's going to get $125. http://chicago.craigslist.org/wcl/grd/1545721966.html I mean, it does actually work good and has a 3 hp motor for being a 2 stroke. but I don't think it will go through wet snow more than a few inches. it was starting to have trouble in 4 inch snow we got the other day and it was like dry powder.

yeah if he wants just basic operation of his computer. linux would work good for him. getting videos from the net to play are sometime hit and miss, and forget about watching dvd's, print features other than basic print from the printer, games, scanners, fax, and that sort of thing. no one likes thumbing through 100Xs of files looking for software when people of linux wont even take the time to "name" stuff. instead they leave it in some kind of random code like, ps563sdktr. I mean WTF? name the damn thing so people can tell what the hell it is. most people need to use the computer for more than playing a cd while browsing forums. don't talk to me about using linux...I've got it installed on my 2nd drive..it's never been used for anything serious. because you can't do anything with it because of the very poor limited software that comes with it. if you need a computer to run a website or as a company server etc, simple basic computing...linux is the answer. if you need it to do serious stuff with good software support from hardware and peripheral support windows and Mac have that covered.

sandpaper and bodyfiller will make anything perfect. basically it's the exact same as making a part..only, the mold is "inside out". I used this companies website and youtube videos to learn from. they have other videos now showing more advanced techniques such as vacuum bagging. the other cool thing is, this company is located just north of Dayton, OH. http://www.youtube.com/user/fibreglast#p/u/24/FCivvXA2FVU since they are making a part for a model airplane, not every step of what they are doing is going to apply for making something for a motorcycle. you will need to do some improvising. one such thing would be the little box he built. I didn't see a need to make something like that. I did however need to split the lower in 2 parts. or else the part would never come out of the mold because of it's shape. so I had to add a tab to both halves of the mold so I could bolt them together like they did in the video. I just taped a piece of 3/16" MDF board that I cut out to match the contour of the lower..that became my tab of the mold. http://www.fibreglast.com/ if you already have a set to copy you are golden. they are the "plug" a plug obviously is the part you will copy and is needed to make a mold of. if you don't have a plug...good luck LOL. that's one of the hardest part about making anything. you could use your stock plastics too. as long as they are not sanded, the resin will not stick permanently to them. there is also a "mold release" agent you can put on a part so the resin doesn't stick to it. it's called PVA(poly vinyl alcohol) and washes off with water when you are done.

dude linux is great if you don't have other things besides browsing the internet to do.....it's only available software that it comes with is like stuff apple and microsoft was making in 1988. linux itself is great...it's problem is there is no good software for it. unless you can make your own, it's not worth installing linux.

you can always get a "system builders" copy of xp. its a little bit cheaper. whatever you do you guys need to do it quickly. microsoft has discontinued XP and all remianing supplies of the xp install discs will be gone soon. pesonally, I would see if it will run windows 7. you can get 7 for practically the price of XP. http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16832116511&cm_re=xp_home-_-32-116-511-_-Product http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16832116752&cm_re=windows_7-_-32-116-752-_-Product

I got a free one last summer and got to use it thursday. it's just a little 2 stroke 14" wide(I think) Toro. I cleaned out the carb and it fired right up. they only made them for 3 years...1979-1981:lol: little bastard acutally works good.

that looks a lot better than the acumen. that thing has 3 for 4 damn connectors. my friends bike is a wire nightmare with that and a power commander.

I used a old set I had to make the molds. with the mold made I can make the finished product. it's harder than it sounds though. my problem is the molds aren't 100% perfect. and I don't have a vacuum system. so, without a perfect mold, the surface of the final product needs some final prep work. and without a vacuum system I'm laying the glass in the old fashioned way, which isn't really a problem but the vacuum would draw the materials closer and wick out extra resin. which results a stronger and lighter part. I just don't have the garage space to make other stuff. it's really a lot of work too. I can see why bodywork costs as much as it does. sharkskins and others really are justified. they finish them perfectly so they are ready for a show quality paint job. something I found cheaper brands def do not.

their site also says a "cleared" title could have been a salvaged title at one time too. but inspected by the state(like I said before about cars) and then given a clear title.
-
their site says if it has a salvage title that mean the insurance paid off the loan. and like I told you before..maybe it came from a police auction where it automatically gets a salvage title. a salvage title doesn't mean it's been destroyed and put back together. find out why it has the title don't assume it's been destroyed and put back together. a crashed bike doesn't mean it's destroyed, hell my bike would have been salvaged in 2004 because I crashed it. it didn't harm the frame it broke and scratched every piece of plastic on it. my bike has almost 40k 100% trouble free miles on it now.

it's not a fucked up bike. I would consider it in good condition judging the pictures. it's only a 4 year old bike. it's obviously been garage kept and clean. look at the chain and sprocket. you guys know darn well if it was your bike you'd be trying to get $5k out of it.

all right guys mcn is saying the 2006 is still worth between $5,431- $7,834. they are a little off because they say it was $12k new. can't seem to find anything else right now. http://www.motorcyclenews.com/MCN/bikereviews/searchresults/Bike-Reviews/Yamaha/Yamaha-YZF-R6-2006-current/ here's another one..can't seem to find any in usd. only uk pounds. http://www.parkers.co.uk/motorbikes/used-prices/Valuation.aspx?plate=81&deriv=7427 even in poor condition they say it's worth 3,475pounds. which is $5,567 usd.
-
is this the bike? http://home.fuse.net/edge/racersedge/bike39.htm I don't see much wrong with it. $4k isn't a terrible asking price. that's about $1300 a year depreciation. if it didn't spin a rod bearing with that many miles on it, it's not going to. all the people that had failures were with almost new engines.
