  1. If you're going to patch and plug the tire...you should throw in some tire sealer...

    ...I've used Stan's No Tubes before by itself when I got a staple in my rear tire and it worked just fine for the life of the tire. Not going to lie...I was nervous as shit running around with a hole in my tire, but none the less I still RAN around. :D

    ...on the other hand, when I got a screw in a different rear tire...I tried to plug and patch it, but was unsuccessful (wouldn't hold air) and had to get a different tire put on. So maybe if you use a combination of the 3 (patch, plug and sealer) you'll have more success. I don't know what to tell you...shit sucks! She (your motorcycle) likes to pick you up and slam you down like most (fill in the blank)...but look on the bright side, you can rail on her whenever you can afford it. :broke: Ahhh shit, that sucks too. I'm sure Parks, Ron or Ross will let you sleep with one of their sheep for free. :sheepfucker:

  2. so im thinking about taking sat off worksince it is supposed to be nice. seth is off work as in moody and ross well he is a bum and doesnt have a job but his bike is back together. anyone coming down to our neck of the woods?

    I'll only come up to Coshocton if you are working...:popcorn:

  3. Since parks can not copy and paste on his own....

    I posted some roads on the wall of cbrjess...since Adam isn't very good at the internet I'll copy and past the essentials...(...but to be honest I want to go ride US-52 in Va off of I-77 (mostly because of this part) because it was a hidden gold mind that I found on my ride back from Myrtle Beach last summer. It's not that far from Columbus either, only like 4.5 hours away or so....from the looks of ol' google, there are some others I wouldn't mind scouting out like VA-91, VA-16, VA-80 and the list goes on...).

    I say we do that instead of go all the way to Myrtle Beach like Seth wants...we have all summer to do that and it will take more than a weekend.

    The area in Virginia I'd like to explore is like 4.5 hours from Columbus...I'm sure we could make it in less and I-77 through WVa is not bad on the bike...

  4. Right now it says 50% chance of rain and 52° at 7pm for Westerville. We're gonna head to 5 guys n fries for dinner if anyone wants to join us.

    It said 50-60% for awhile now and we've got nothing over off 161 :dunno:. When are you going to 5 guys...and are you riding?

  5. Lettering's too fancy for Coshoctonians.......They're barely literate as it is. Needs to be BIG & easy to read slowly, as it may need to be sounded out by the natives lol.gif

    What website are you guys using to mock these anyways?

    I like the way coshocton county looks all backwoods...the writing on the back could be different, but I don't live in coshocton and could careless if they can read my shirt anyways. haha

    I don't know what coshocton kids are using to build the shirt designs, but I'm just using a little ms-paint. :D

  6. This thread now deliverzzzz

    Oh wait.....those are just fugly squid bikes :grin:

    Hahaha the girls are all greased up...looks like this bike shop is setting up four soon to be squidly SuSucki owners for FAILURE when they hop on their newly greased 600, 750, and 1000 then Yut Ughhhh fall! :popcorn:

  7. I just feel like this thing doesn't stop like it should....My R6 seems like I either skid/lock up the back, or if I try to brake it just enough before it skids/locks up, it doesn't stop very fast.

    ...so you do realize if you lock up your rear brake that you have completely stopped your rear tire from moving? (In other words your rear brake is working like it's supposed to on your sport bike, but you're going to run into problems because you have less control when your front tire continues to spin while your rear tire has stopped.)

    If the tires on your sport bike have came to optimal temperature and you grab a hand full of front break...you'll flip the bike over before you lock the front wheel (this also depends on the street surface.)

    When you combine those two scenarios for a sport bike, your max stopping power will be right before your rear tire lifts off the ground (by using the front break) and your rear tire starts to lock (by using the rear break).

    ....now you have to find out where that is depending on your breaking system, tires, suspension, road surface, temperature and your weight....I'll give you a head start, it's definitely more front break than rear. :D
