  1. Your the kinda guy that smokes at a gas station arnt you?? their kinda unavoidable in that situation, you've got the fuel tank out, and open, vapors will be there. Any car let's off small traces of fuel vapor. That's why ITS LAW that any electrical outlet, or piolet light in a garage MUST be at least 4' from the floor. I've changed dozens of fuel pumps, and dropped just as many tanks for other various reasons, the open fuel source is not the problem, the ignition source is.

  2. BITCHES!!

    I'll be there :D ball joints, universal joint, and alignment all DONE :) Gonna do the master cylinder on my lunch brake tomorrow and bleed the brakes (did i mention god hates me? Brakes went out wed night too :-/ ) The padding is still wet, just gonna leave it up with a fan on it all weekend. A friend of mine rents a room from me, he's a plumber, he's gonna take care of the dishwasher while I'm gone, and I'll get the carpet restretched and set Monday or Tuesday :)

    Saturday night, WHERES THE PARTY :)

  3. Sure the Busa may be 4mph. faster that the 14 in a straight line. But I think the 14 would be a little better if you come across a turn somewhere in that sprint to the finish. Unless of course you are a the strip or salt flats. Not my style of riding thats for sure.

    Give me a break people! How could having a bullet fast bike be better for the street rider? Maybe if they spend all there time on the big road. But other than that I think having a Busa is all for show.

    "Look at me, Look at me!" "I ride the fastest bike in the world" "Damn I'm cool!"

    Good for you! Hope you don't become another statistic.

    I think someone has ego issues. I own a 'busa. and to be quite frank, I hate people talking to me about it. I was in no market for one, and aside from liking the looks wasn't wanting one. Then I sat on one. Believe me, when your 6'2" and 250lbs it's WORLDS more comfortable than a regular sport bike. I've always felt like a bear on a mini bike in the Russian circus on any regular sport bike I've ridden, I actually fit on this bike. While there are many, many people out there who DID buy the bike for that reason, I can assure you there isn't ONE of them on this board. I'll offer you up the same deal I've offered up others on this board, RT9 this spring, I'll meet you there and you can tell me how horrible this bike handels.

    Untill then, take your "hollier than though, only people with huge egos buy those bikes, I don't need something like that to define me" and shove it up your ass sideways. I bought my bike for me, I put over 8500 miles, and two sets of tires on mine, washed it 3 times, and changed the oil in it 3 times too. There is nothing aftermarket on my bike but a shift light, HID head light, and Nellson-Riggs soft luggage, next spring the only other aftermarket addition will be springs/valves in the suspension, and a 1" rear lift.

    See you on the street.

  4. Who's the SLACKER now?!

    No slacker here, I'm still gonna try. Got my carpet pulled up and a fan on it, gonna try to have my friend come out and restretch the carpet tomorrow while I'm at work. I'm still trying! :D

    LOTS of water, I got 2 6.0hp shop vacs full of water out of the carpet/padding. Luckily the floor in those two rooms is concrete, (split level) and it just flowed under the wall, the 2x4 is a little damp, but no drywall damage thankfully. I'm gonna go home today and see where it's at. I've also got to put ball joints on my jeep before I can come down, gonna run out the old mans since he has a heated shop and mine is still cold :( but I'm trying like hell, don't write me off just yet :D

  5. Okay, I'm gonna throw this out there just because. If you have a drop light that still uses regular light bulbs, Throw the damn thing out and get one that uses florescent lights.

    I was living in NJ and on the news a guy was working on his car in a small one car garage, changing a fuel pump, he dropped the light, or it fell or some shit. Anyways, the resulting explosion killed him and took out half his house, luckily his wife was working, and kids were in school. But still not good.

    That is when I threw out the two I had in my garage and went immediately out and bought a pair that use florescent bulb lights to replace them.

    Just Tuesday, this guy I work with, and occasionally ride with, his uncle owns a car lot. he was doing the same thing. Changing a fuel pump on a mini van. it was up on a lift and the light fell off the lift leg and hit the ground. Instant fire. Luckily he made it out and is fine, but his business is gone, along with several cars he had in his garage. I wouldn't say I'm great friends with him, but I've met his uncle several times and if I'd see him around town I'd stop and shoot the shit with him so this hits a little closer to home.

    PLEASE PEOPLE if you have a drop/trouble light that uses a regular screw in light bulb, THROW IT OUT it's an accident waiting to happen!! :mad:

  6. Well guys bad news :( feed line to my dishwasher blew and soaked the carpet in my living room, they share a wall. So now my Capet is all torn up and I've got the dishwasher pulled out and shit. Tomorrow I'm gonna be repairing all that and won't be able to make it, let's plan for next weekend.

  7. :D Nothin but love babe! I think it's good you've decided that. I quit driking hard in HS because Hang overs suck and really, their not worth it :-/ I get where your coming from. another reason I only have a beer or three, and if I drink more, I always drink a glass of water with each beer just to keep the hangover away
  8. Oh I know, I'm just trying to regroup a little. My sleep schedule is out of whack and it feels great not having hangovers once or twice a week so I'm just gonna take it easy for the remaining winter. I have too many parts to buy soon to go out all the time anyway...

  9. stupid huh? alcohol content is what I've heard.... ohio is strict about content in beer... freakin dumb!:rant:

    something like that, the friend that I'm coming to visit, his room mate actually works for the state alky/tobacco department, and believe it or not it's some exceptionally stupid reason why it cannot be imported, something along the lines of how it's brewed or some shit. I'll find out again. :(

  10. HAHAHAHA i'd never believe you cuz i know you just wanna punk me out! LOL.. and I dont think I'm quite ready for Cbus again just yet.. I need to let my liver recover a lil bit from the previous month. My resolution was similar to whodey's. no drinking for a month.. maybe two if the first one goes well lol

    Ya know, you CAN have ONLY 2-3. It's possible to have a drink or two, and not get hammered, it's even possible to go out and drink and have a good time, all depends on who your with, I go out PLENTY and don't drink a drop. Hell I tell people I don't drink because thats all I usually have is 2-3 beers a night and it gets annoying when I go out and people expect me to drink a case.

  11. lol.. you ppl and you yeuingling! haha I should have tried it last weekend

    Meet me there! I'll buy all your drinks, and bring a case of the good stuff! But only because I want to get you drunk and tell you girls can't ride (LOL I think that's the line that gets you fired up :) )
