  1. i dont know nowadays there's all sorts of neat types of glue. one of them has got to be exciting to watch dry.

    Super glue is fun to watch dry.

    (when it isn't on you and is in a place it shouldn't be)

  2. screw baylis and rossi, i want to see rossi piss off biaggi AGAIN!!! i alway used to love to watch biaggi get pissy when rossi found yet another way to get under his skin

    Yeah that was what I was thinking after the initial WOOOHOOO.

    I could see him waving to Biaggi as he passes him, that is just Rossi..

  3. Brian, Reuben have either of you had any experience with the Hyperpro Progressive springs? I am going to upgrade my street bike (front has not felt right since I bought it) and plan doing basic springs front and rear, and probably a valve kit up front (fluid chage front and rear).

    I would probably just send the Forks and shock to ya Reuben.

    But I saw on the site you use Hyperco springs and have never heard of them. I was thinking of a proressive spring so I might be able to maintain a smoother ride at easy cruising.

  4. hey dude, I need a price on a rear 170/80-15 and a front 130/90-16 I'd like a strong cruiser tire that'll get me at least 12 thou miles.... since that's how many I got on the oem set..... let me know what you can come up with.....

    I just put D404s on a buddies Shadow 750. one of the only ones I could find with that 170/80-15

  5. I was going to use them but got tired of waiting. My set was supposedly on back order for 4 months :wtf for an 06 GSXR 1000...

    I am using TankTredz on my street and race bike now and they work great. Don't have the rough knobby feel of the Stomp Grip and work just as well.

  6. Yeah NASCAR can be R&D on the engines as they are run in the upper range for 500 miles. But the point I was hinting at that I should have just said is that the Rules that try to make it even level are not a good platform to test break throughs.

    It is a place where they can refine what is already known and in place.. Leave the Carbs and restrictors but allow the engineers room to experiement...

    It isn't all down home racing (as the cars prove that) that some tend to think, and the fan base tends to resemeble. However the type of racing tends to lead me to believe that Road Course racing would give better R&D platform then purpose built, setup, and rule controlled oval racing cars.

    IMO the NASCAR Rules tend to put a Downer on Innovation which is where R&D is.

  7. That is one problem with NASCAR there really isn't any Technology development goign into moder cars.

    All are Rear wheel drive, when majority these days are front wheel. All are carbed and I don't know of any car today that is. Body shape is specified by the rules. About the only thing that I can think of that could beneifit from it is suspension, but how much does turning left on sever banking going to thelp improve cars for normal road work.

    Formula one is where the development is, and maybe if the MFGs run some in a SCCA, TransAm, Rolex type class they could actually improve the cars.

  8. He's just out there to have fun. How people don't get this is beyond me.

    NFL = entertainment. You need players like him or it would be like 2098234 Maddens out there doing the same thing, mentioning the most obvious shit in the world and making you want to cut your eyes out as you watch.

    Maybe we can get the Speed Channel AMA crew to do the games :lol
