  1. I do however think its hilarious when they stomp their feet and make a post saying they aren't going to a certain dinner spot because they can't carry their gun...

    My not eating at Bucca di Beppo has nothing to do with guns, but it is another 'matter of principle' that they won't even take their own coupons.

    This is a CCW thread? :D

  2. Since when did Kasich turn into a bleeding heart liberal pussy?

    Gov. Kasich spares death row inmate

    murphy.jpgMurphy

    COLUMBUS — Ohio Gov. John Kasich has spared a condemned inmate who

    slashed a woman’s throat in a robbery, saying the prisoner’s horrific

    childhood outweighed receiving a death sentence.

    Kasich’s decision on Monday marked the fourth time since July that an Ohio execution has been postponed or called off.

    Kasich followed the recommendation of the Ohio Parole Board, which

    said last week Joseph Murphy should be sentenced to life without parole

    instead.

    The board cited Murphy’s childhood growing up in West Virginia in which he was beaten, starved and sexually abused.

    Murphy was convicted of killing 72-year-old Ruth Predmore in Marion in 1987 in a robbery that netted her penny collection.

    Nvm, I know the angle... one more prisoner for the private prisons to bilk money from the state for... :p

    The bolded ones come recommended more than the others, though all would make decent tracks if you need more music filler.

    Since you're into introducing all the riders... you could have everyone pick their theme song that would play for 5secs as you roll through everyone... there's almost a minute worth of music right there :lol:

  4. I guess I wasn't clear enough. My prices were for ordering factory Suzuki parts off the microfiche to restore the bike to the cosmetic condition it was in when it left the factory.

    I'm not arguing that aftermarket or used OE fairings wouldn't be 'good enough', because they are for some people. Some people also love the 'thrill of the hunt' to find a color-correct left side, then three weeks later find a right, then find the front, and brag about how they fixed it all up for next to nothing because they waited and snagged the right pieces when they found them. That's great.

    But if you want new OE fairings, color correct, right now...then you're ordering them from a dealer at the prices I listed. Different strokes. I want to know the replacement costs, not what the 'good enough to work' costs. That way I know the MAX amount i'd have to spend, and it can only get cheaper if you consider your alternatives (unless you're upgrading from stock parts at the same time, though not really relevant on cosmetic parts)

  5. Not with OE parts... side cowls alone are $500+ each, then the front fairing is around $340. So that's just cosmetic parts.

    But, if you want an $800 fiberglass body kit (that's for the entire bike too), then the rest of the bike can probably be fixed with aftermarket parts for under $300. The 'needs rear brakes' means different things. Just pads? Or the entire caliper assembly?

    Bar end - $15

    Lever set - $25

    So the rest is in the rear brake and new tire...

  6. That was 556 the same spot im talking about with my boot.

    Must be why your post reminded me. I know I wasn't leading. So I kind of remember watching your bike go through it like it wasn't even there. I sure as hell wasn't prepared for it, then I hit it and laughed since it spooked me (and because it makes for quite the funny surprise for the next guys).

  7. I hit my boot on 556 from a little push from my rear tire.

    I cant remember if it was 556 or one of the routes coming home, but one of the fast sweepers had a wicked dip in the middle of it. I know my front wheel left the ground mid-lean, and I think my rear did too. It happened so quick that all I could do was chuckle and watch the guys in the mirror. Everyone else handled it flawlessly, but it definitely got my attention.
