  1. God I hope so. Ever been there? EVERYTHING there gives you cancer. EVERYTHING! there were probably 3-5 LARGE signs in the hotel that said it. hell I even saw the sign on the back of a few Taxi's! I think California in and of itself gives you cancer.

  2. yeah, I kept telling my parents I was gonna get one, and knowing my addiction to stupid fast toys, I'm sure they knew it was coming. They just weren't happy when I actually went out and bought one :D My mother was a nervous wreck for the first few months, but by the end of last season she actually rode with me, we were going to meet my sisters and dad for dinner.

    My mom actually has her motorcycle endorsement, she rocked an old Honda dual sport back in the day, pretty cool :p

  3. I'd say more GSXR and front of a Kawi. And the revention really ain't all that. The new ZR1 is allot more impressive for allot less money. Unless "OHH AAHHH It's Italian and flashy looking" is all your after

  4. Careful with the kerosene. My dad used to paint cars, had this older black gentleman he repainted his Lincoln for. Car was AMAZING, most beautiful old Lincoln you'd ever seen, not "gangsah" nice, but genuinely WOW, thats a nice old Lincoln" nice. Well about 2 weeks after my dad painted it, the guy came back to the shop. Mouldings were falling off... My dad was like WTF, but since he repainted the car, and replaced the moldings, he replaced them. this happened about 2 or 3 more times my dad couldn't understand. He's used 3M moldings forever, still does. they got to talking, specifically about the car, since it WAS the cleanest Lincoln my dad had ever seen, no bondo, no rust, nothing. PERFECT. Turns out the old guy washed the car with Kerosene... and it melted the adhesive. Was the last time my dad replaced the moldings for free :lol:

  5. Just out of morbid curosity, what makes a bike like that worth so much? I've never ridden a Duc, and certainly can't operate a motorized scooter to the degree you can, Lizard, but my question is; In all honesty, what makes that bike worth 2x a R1, GSXR 1k, or CBR 1k? Is the bike really all that much better, stock for stock? Even Stock with proper springs/suspension adjustments? Is there really an extra $10k worth of "one-uppance" in the Duc, or is it all in the name?

  6. on the new posts page, when I hover over the link to this post, there's a link in the preview to somewhere. But your post doens't have a link anywhere.

    N/M theirs a pic there now. :wtf: I even refreshed the page twice thinking that was the prob. oh well, never mind i'm an idiot

  7. so they're trying to say, that through the engineering fazes, all the drawings, and all the other BS that goes into a building of that magnitude, NO ONE noticed that it looks like a swastika?! I find that very hard to believe.

  8. I've been reading up on them, the general consensus is that if your under 200WHP, they're fine. I'm looking at a set plus an extra chain to swap back and forth.

    Also, it's not like your bike will simply refuse to turn after extending it, people seriously over exaggerate a bike with extensions. twisties are still possible, we ride with a guy with a 8" over swing arm on a Gixxer 750 and he does just fine, it just takes a little extra effort and some more lean to make it go.
