if i weren't going to be on a plane bound for japan saturday morning, I would be riding down. don't forget to make fun of the trailer queens for me...

I hear you... my girlfriend just started working there part time as a second job. They need to do way more advertising, and I suggested tuesday since wildside is monday, valleyview and sharon (i believe) are wednesday, austintown and menner are thursday...and he's got poker games and stuff friday already.

gee, this bike looks awefully familiar... where have i seen something similar?

just curious, might ride down if interesting people will be there...

I would love to get an ape... ever since "torque" I've wanted that RSV Mille, just to see if i could pop a wheelie at 160

did some quick bodywork and paint

looks like it would be a great learner bike for someone... I got almost the same bike when i was 8, it was a kawi 550, same style though...

as far as I know...

I don't recall if it was 25, but IIRC it wasn't much more than that, and it gives me more riding time... I actually bought a set of spoons, and a balancer because i had planned on doing my own tires, but honestly, it just wasn't worth the headaches for me. I tried it once, and by the time i bought the weights, stressed over bending the brake rotors, broke the bead 3 times trying to find a better balance on the wheel, and screwing around most of the day, it was just easier to go to someone like Pauly who has the equipment there to do it right (no mar machine), and doesn't charge an arm and a leg to do it. On the whole, I agree with you, I do my own chain and sprockets, my own clutch, my own brakes, my own tune up, and my own fluid changes, but tires just suck.

so how is everyone else doin, I'm almost up to 101,500 so far

It's not like it's going on for hours at a time... he said it himself, by the time the cops are able to respond they are gone... chill out for 10 minutes, they will be gone.

fuel pump not toast...power commander needs reset

nah, decent idea, but then all my local friends wouldn't want to roll that far, especially since they aren't really into bikes for the most part.

this ^ If it were me, I'd just be laughing.

EXCEPT ducrx charges ON the bike what most shops charge OFF the bike... don't let the name fool you into thinking his prices are anything but reasonable. So now instead of balancing your bike on some cement blocks, throwing your wheels in your car, driving over to the shop, waiting forever, paying the same amount, driving home, fighting with your wheels, careful not to knock it over, double checking your torque settings, firming up the brakes, tightening the chain, double checking they put the right air pressure in, and then test riding... you simply ride over to pauly's, shoot the breeze for a few minutes while he does all the work, when he's done you pay the man, hop on your bike and go ride...

if you're replacing side cover gaskets anyway, definitely take the clutch apart and re-oil all the plates/inspect for damage to the friction plates... you don't want to tear it all apart again just to mess with a clutch you could have easily checked while it was apart already.

sorry, I'm looking at the current numbers on yahoo...

They are all going to go greeen!!!!!!

i think my stocks might recover, hopefully I bought them near their lows..

:plus1: for pauly at ducrx

It's only a couple minutes, can it ya old fart,

New bar opened in rome, just south of the 45 and 6 intersection. Owner seems like a nice guy, hosting a bike night tuesdays. I told him i'd post up. I know it's not everybody's thing, just thought i'd toss it out there, happy hour 5 to 8.
