While it may be fun to explore the performance possibilities, I don,t think that model would make for a good daily rider. Did I just say that???? Well this is a riding forum!!

YES!!!

I got mine because for the last 47 years I was always flying some type of aerial contraption (either radio control or full size) and spending way more than I should on them. It is also the same screen name that I use on many flying forums.

Some times you have to careful even when you are right. The "no motorcycles allowed" rule is probably in the condo rules that your GF signed when she moved in there. So it would not have to be posted anywhere. Have your GF pull out the condo rules and have a look, if the rule is there then your options are limited. Cage it when you want to visit her. Have her move. Find new GF. If the rule is not there, you may have a better case for vandalism. The manager may now have a case against you from what you said to him.

This will put tears in your eyes...............It is such a wonderful Fairy Tale.. http://68.142.229.15/us.f544.mail.yahoo.com/ya/securedownload?mid=1_881194_AIYxvs4AAUrFTMrnSQ4LQxHeZWA&pid=2&fid=Inbox&inline=1&cred=LwOJ2kXwW6vw6y6ERQGHaCSmYyoZXbfvux3E_uzjwLStqnIR_IB6y4b1iTcC0R0dFZizbzoMSkzM1cmVnm.ewFqS2Don.8AvEIz_oaOT4bw-&ts=1288367302&partner=ymail&sig=RXBs8GLpIq849wpSG9IBMA-- Once upon a time, a Prince asked a beautiful Princess.... 'Will you marry me?' The Princess said, 'NO !!!' And the Prince lived happily ever after, and rode motorcycles, and went fishing, and hunting, and played golf, and drank beer and scotch, and had tons of money in the bank, and left the toilet seat up, and farted whenever he wanted.

I have a cutting torch, a sledge hammer, and a welder, I say it fits. Would look good in a 1st gen too.

I guess that I never had a mid life crisis because I never did grow up in the first place, that way I never had to go out to find my lost youth. Now I am simply old, and still haven't grown up.

Also check the battery cables, both ends, to be sure that they are tight and free of corrosion. -
Don Something else to look into. Many software companies will replace a damaged disk for fairly cheap, if you actually own a registered license, and send them the damaged disk. Something to look into.

If and when there is enough interest I will be calling them to get a final best price, at that time everyone on the list can confirm their interest and I can get the ball rolling.

No snow flakes here YET, just this insane wind. I kind of like winter, I have been migrating steadily north over the years and drive farther north every chance I get.

I think/hope that the idea of hitting the tree with a vehicle was meant in jest, at least that is how I took it. Even as rotten as that tree is it is still big enough to stop a semi in its tracks and stay standing. Trees just do not move very easy, especially big ones.

It is amazing that they are smart enough to gently drag the injured dog out of harms way. But on the flip side, why were they playing on the freeway in the first place?
-
Even more important is to make absolutely certain that you never get soap and water on it at the same time, INSTANT scrap metal. Is that like the adds for 4 wheel drive trucks up here in the snow country that say never driven in the snow or stored winters.

Last year I had inquired about keeping the tree for firewood when it comes down. That was before the emerald ash borer was discovered less than 1 mile away. I am not sure what all rules are now imposed on that tree due to the beetle. With this wind, maybe it will be down by the time I get home. At 8:00 this morning there was a confirmed tornado that went through somewhere between me here at work and my house. Heck of a storm, The weather dude on the radio this morning said that this will be the 2nd worst storm in the Midwest in recorded history. This is supposed to have the same central pressure as a cat 3 hurricane. It looks like the center of the storm is tracking north thru Minnesota. I hope you guys are hanging on to something over there.
-
I was guessing that it was some kind of ash. And since the ash borer beetle was discovered in this city, the wood can not be taken out of the city for fireplace use.
-
Yup, I just watched the weather, winds are supposed to be steady at 40+ with gusts to 60+. Add to that some severe storms, and tornado watches, should be a fun night. The weather dude said that this is very likely to be the most severe storm to ever hit S.E. WI. The wind direction will be wrong for me to get a new roof out of it.

I do have one ace in the hole for just in case the city should try to bill me for the tree removal. The tree is actually located on my neighbors side of the lot line, and that house next door is owned by an absentee slumlord, so my actual neighbors (nice people) will not be the ones stuck with the bill. When I got home from work today, there were temporary no parking signs up and the area all around the tree was barricaded. The mayor must have come to check it out and lit some fires of his own.
-
No I can not take it down myself, I asked, besides there is the liability of it overhanging power lines and 2 houses that I do not want to deal with. It is the cities tree on city property, so it is their problem. The city lucked out on the car that was damaged, I did call the police for that one, when the LEO ran the plates, it came back to someone that had an arrest warrant, so it is my guess that the owner will not be contacting the city for the damages. Bubber I did put it very strongly that it is a much greater safety hazard than the sidewalk blocks that are 1/2 inch out of alignment that they are forcing me to replace at $120 each.

For the last 3 years I have been fighting city hall over getting one of their trees removed from in front of my house. Every time I call the forestry dept I get the same song and dance about how their budget is small and maybe they can get to it next year. This tree has been dead on the top half for the last 3 years. up till this year it has just been an eyesore and a nuisance picking up all of the dead twigs falling out of it. This past summer it dropped a 6" diameter branch on a car parked in front of my house causing damage to the car (no ones that I know). The police were involved so that there would be a record of it. I also contacted my alderman to complain about it. My alderman contacted the city forestry dept and they said they would try to get to it this winter. This last weekend it dropped a good size branch that just missed another parked car. the attached pics are of this latest branch and where it landed. I sent another email with these pics to the alderman and the Mayor, yesterday. Today I got an email from the mayor that he talked to the forestry dept and the tree will come down on 11-9-10. I hope I have lit the fire under the right butt this time. I did put the letter in the terms that these branches coming down are big enough to cripple or even kill someone walking down the sidewalk and the tree is so rotten that it could easily fall over and there is no direction that it can go where it will not land on either a house or a main power line. I just hope it is a hortheast wind that takes it down cuz I really need a new roof. In pic 4 you can just see the split that is running up the tree, that split is on the side straight away from my house and is currently about 2 inches wide, more than a foot deep and about 10 feet long.

Cassette Deck, why do you have a problem with MORE options?
Flyinfool replied to LilBeaver's topic in Watering Hole
To me the biggest deal about the cassette deck is that I am paying for equipment that I will never use. It is no different than buying a GM car now, they all come with OnStar that I will never use and it causes there to be an ugly antenna sticking thru the roof that some day will end up leaking. But you are still paying for it. -
We are getting closer to making this happen. We need a minimum of 20 items on the order, 10 of which must be HID Kits, right now I have received PMs confirming 7 kits. Check out the LED section on the HID Country website. If I could figure out how to fit it into my budget, Their HID flashlights look interesting.

This has to be a record of some kind.... Just one day of membership and having to admit to laying it down already. Heal fast and get back on it.

I replaced that this last spring, along with the antifreeze, with the kit from here.
