It was taken right out of the service parking lot at HNW just a couple hours ago in broad fucking daylight. Rediculous

Here's a pic of his bike, just taken 2 days ago..

That's awesome! Yeah you can pretty much just beat the shit out of a jeep and they just keep going. I had a 93 cherokee XJ a couple years ago with 3 inches of lift on 31's and I used to rag the living hell out of that thing and it would just never die. I launched it 3-4 feet in the air several times and the worst that ever happened was blowing a tire and spilling my beer Had about 150k on it and purred like a kitten. Fuck, now I miss that thing...

I don't remember anything specific about the a/c, but a lot of them don't have a/c anyway. Look for a 1997 or newer, (TJ) they are much better than the previous generation. (YJ) The 4.0 liter motor is awesome and will run forever if properly maintained. Look for the leaking from the rear main seal if it has anywhere close to 100k miles on it. If you plan on lifting it, don't get an "X", get a "sport" or special edition model because the X has 3.07 gears and sucks with tires much bigger than stock.

Wheelies are fairly easy, gotta get you over your fear of cornering first though.

I actually got pulled over last year in Gahanna with the threat of a noise pollution ticket for the stereo in my T/A!

Only if you were doing stand up wheelies through traffic

I've heard the old Harley guys referred to as COBs, - Crusty Old Biker

Get a stick if you want anything remotely close to decent gas milage, especially if it's older than 2002, because they had a 3 speed automatic in them. 03 and newer they went to a 4 speed which is a little better. Stick is more fun anyway

touche' to you Maybe you can Angrish to co-sign for you....

So you don't like the sound of a properly tuned RC51 or Mille?

Hahahaha!! True dat!

Pro freestylers? yes, you are correct. So you rockin out that backflip superman seat grab this weekend or what???

And notice.. "squids" = GSXR's! Coincidence?? You decide

2 stroke?? What decade is it? Buy a 4 stroke!!!

Nope. (I think you were asking a question there) And at age 33 I just got rid of my CBR1000RR for an FZ1, which I can and have done 600 miles a day on, and at age 55 if I ever feel that I can no longer handle light weight, superb handling, breakneck accelleration, and the ability to stop on a dime, then I may consider a cruiser. However, it will never be a Harley.

I think the biggest problem I have with Harley is what the Harley riders have created. You're cool and are accepting of other brands, but how many Harley riders actually are?? Their not. Period. Also, you cannot tell me that ANY Harley is engineered sooooo well that it deserves the rediculous price tag attached to it. Yours is prolly the only one even close. Their technology is obsolete, your paying for a fucking name and to be part of the "family", not quality. If they made an airplane, would you fly in it??

Yep!! And welcome to the board BTW!!

I have speakers mounted inside my helmet that I sometimes plug my Ipod into. They don't sit right on top of your ears so you can still hear everything else that's going on around you. The sound quality isn't great but better than nothing for those long, not so aggressive rides.

Squid (motorcycle) From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia A squid is an irresponsible motorcyclist. The term is derogatory and common among motorcyclists in North America.It is generally associated with a new or reckless motorcyclist seen riding erratically and/or beyond his or her capabilities, often without appropriate riding gear. The origin of the word is varyingly attributed: A contraction of:"Squirrely" and "kid" (possibly taken from California surfing culture), or "Squished" and "kid", or "Squished" and "idiot" Also of note: "squidly girl" or "Squirrel" [*]An acronym for: "Stupidly Quick, Underdressed, Ignorant and Dangerous", or "Stupidly Quick, Underdressed and Imminently Dead", or "Super Quick Until I Die" Note: all of these are likely to be backronyms Derivative of U.S. military culture:Newly-inducted sailors based in San Diego in the '60s would sometimes buy an inexpensive two-stroke motorcycle for transportation while on shore, even if they had never ridden before. So, there were large numbers of unprotected, inexperienced "marine life" squirting through traffic in a hurry and leaving a trail of black "ink" (smoke) behind them. "Squid" was also a common derogatory term for sailors:Recent inductees were called "squids" by more senior sailors, and All sailors were called "squids" by Marines [*]Based on similarity between the way a "squid" rides and an actual squid swims. Squids can appear unable to change direction while swimming without first coming to a near complete stop. However, once the squid does stop and change directions, it can very quickly accelerate back to its regular swimming speed. Beginning motorcyclists commonly have trouble negotiating turns, and must slow down to unnecessarily slow speed, while at the same time have a tendency to ride very fast on the straight sections of the road. [*]Referring to the fact that the rider has a large, bulbous head (his helmet) with soft, fleshy bits dangling beneath it. Often young, squids are identified by their reckless abandon (speeding, wheelies, stoppies etc.) and by their inappropriate attire (shorts, backwards ball caps, flip flops, wifebeater T-shirt, etc). The wearing of tank tops by "squids" was satarised by Ian Johnston who wrote a widely distributed article claiming the Corona tank top was safer than racing leathers.[1] A "squidly" rider eschews all or most of the protective gear worn by many riders (helmet, gloves, leather jacket, riding pants, and boots) and the social and legal norms of riding behaviour, and as such is looked upon with derision by experienced motorcyclists, who also refer to them as "organ donors", "Zip-Splats", "a Stillie", "Skin Crayons", CycleWorld, March 1995.</ref> and "soon-to-be-ex-motorcyclists". However, many squids are fully suited-up with helmet, jacket, gloves, etc. Being "squidly" has more to do with how a rider acts than by what he or she wears or rides.
