  1. It's like an annoying dog that shows up out of nowhere and licks your face when you didn't even know it was there thus scaring the living piss out of you.
  2. Probably not but I've never tasted a deer that was raised on dog food and table scraps. That thing loves cheeseburgers and chicken nuggets.
  3. Tore the little bastard down and sent the carburetor off to California to get reworked and an adapter put on it. Slapped the new rings on the piston, replace the gaskets and bolted the engine back together yesterday. Then I realized I didn't check the direction of the rings ( turns out there's a top and bottom) so will be tearing it back down hopefully tonight. So far the biggest pain in the ass was cleaning the gasket mating surfaces. Oh, and finding out after you put it back together that there's a top and bottom on the rings. It's a learning process.
  4. When this thing first started, nobody showed up to group rides in anything more than a jacket gloves and a helmet. The more gear the better but no one will shit on you for showing up in jeans. A helmet gloves and motorcycle jacket (not Fonzie jacket) are heavily recommended.
  5. Let's see your rig! started out with the pooball table. top 2 pics earlier this year got a pro style table bottom pics. Ellie May is a shitty player. She spins. lets see yours!
  6. According to playboy, millennial's are 20% less likely to search for boobie pics than older generations. Then went on to ask why you think they are less interested in titties? Why? I'll tell you why, because the weird little bastards are eating ass. That's right, the nasty little buggas are licking each other's butt holes!
  7. I also need a new helmet to replace the Arai that is falling apart. Would like to get back into a shoei.
  8. Thanks Dano. I have been reading that thread. Seems there's not a lot available for this thing and with motor issues I'm kind of scared that it will end up being a part out. Probably won't lose money on it either way but I just don't have time to UPS parts everywhere.
  9. Saw a dirtbike with a headlight at a yard sale this weekend so I busted a U-ie to check it out. Turned out to be a 95 Kawasaki KLX 650 And it was dirty cheap. 500 bucks. The drawback you ask? It was half disassembled and the head and valve cover were held on with a bungee cord. When I asked why, he said he rebuilt it and must not have gotten the timing right and thinks he may have bent the valves. Said he had all the parts to it and it is complete. I told him I would think about it and got his number. Trying to do some of that Internet research and couldn't find much for it in the way of complete engines or engine parts or really any aftermarket since this is only a 2 year bike. What's out there is expensive and scarce. Would love to have a 650 thumper that I could easily ride to Wayne and hit the trails. Anyone ever own one of these bikes? Dude also had a really nice 2006 SV650 S with 6000 miles for $2800 If anyone is interested I have his phone number. Located in Lithopolis.
  10. The fuck is that queerness?
  11. Nice ride. Got my eyeballs all over a SS a few weeks ago. Cool car, wouldn't want to work on it. That motor is a squeeze.
  12. Don't think I've met jerry but have dealt with this type of cancer in my family in the past. I wish him nothing but comfort. Fuck Cancer!
  13. So she sprung a leak on the front left corner of the head gasket. I knew would happen eventually but was hoping to make it to winter. So I tore it down and discovered some interesting things along the way. The PO told me it had been bored out to 280 but there are many aftermarket piston manufactures and 280 is a generalization. Couldn't know what gasket size I needed til I found out what brand kit was in it so the head came off. found out that the aftermarket Mikuni 34mm flat slide carb is narrower than stock so requires an adapter to fit on to the OEM airbox. No worries (must've said one of the PO's) just hook it to the airbox and attach it to the intake manifold by butting it up to the end of the manifold (which is supposed to go over the end of the carb) and wrapping it with a chunk of rubber tire innertube And a zip tie! Cheap and lazy solution but I guess it kind of worked, even though the starting procedure for this particular bike was incredibly complicated, possibly due to the hillbilly velocity stack. Noticed it when I bought the bike, just figured if it ran for now, I'd deal with it this winter. No big deal. My carb fitment investigations led me to a small biz in California called XRs only.com Long story short, the mikuni is taking a vacation to cali for some cosmetic surgery. When it comes back, it will have a bigger, poutier air sucker. Giggity. Called my man @ponyjr for some parts (and subsequently lots of advice) and he quickly and expertly assembled a kit of all the parts I would need to do the job and talked me into taking it all the way down to replace the base gasket and inspect the crank. But more importantly, hone the cylinder as it's got a little uneven wear. That kid is incredibly knowledgeable about motorcycles and how they work and his customer service skills are top notch! You would think he's been immersed in it all his life or something. Parts are in. Hitting the pony early tomorrow. To to be continued...... LOOK! PICTURES!
  14. I was on my way back from the durk ride and stopped outside the bar in Straitsville about 5:30 to text some dirt riding buddies who stay at Dorr run. Must have just missed it. can't find any information on what time this occurred.
  15. Which is what the site was created for
  16. Don't you be jealous of my fat fried fat recipes! I'll tell you the same thing I tell Angel, I'm not fat I'm big boned!I'll tell you the same thing I tell Angel, I'm not fat I'm big boned!
  17. Uh, I think the plan was to split up into groups anyways but you go ahead and take the credit for that. The moral of the story is, if you don't want a bunch of bubby's showing up to your publicly posted ride, don't post it publicly. I don't think Jacob or Durk had any issues with the way they're publicly announced ride turned out. It was a beautiful day to ride motorcycles and everyone I talked to had a blast.
  18. Listen here, bicycle boy, we ain't letting you sell Isabella!
  19. Subscribed. Columbus area. Looking for PR2 or equivalent
  20. Get the fuck out of here with that nonsense.
  21. Anyone else had trouble reaching the Townsend motel by phone? every time I try it either rings forever, says the Verizon customer can't be reached, robo answers and says it's an IP place and wants an extension number or some other fuckery. Drivin me nuts!
  22. Damn, that's a great guy.
