any chance the rotor is bent? how's the rotor surface look?... any gouging or raised edge? Did you "scuff" the pad surfaces and the rotor surfaces with emery paper first? are the rotors/pads completely clean of any oil or grease?

I certainly appears that the West Coast is NOT the place to buy a house if you're an "average" wage earner...unless of course you just won the lottery! I recently heard that some billionair just bought a penthouse here in Vancouver for a cool 18 million! gee...it even has it's own outdoor deck/garden! LOL

You can have ALL of ours! ...and in return, I'll take your "cooler" temps and dryness. Our highs lately are around 10 celcius and it generally rains 2 days straight before a break for a half day or so. Well, we did get a couple clear days recently. It's been 3 weeks since I last rode my scoot.

just curious.... what percentage of tint did you use?

Just looked at the latest statistics for the Canadian housing market showing average house prices across Canada in order of highest to lowest. Good thing I was sitting down. Vancouver (where I live) is currently the highest at $560,000. That's up from 2004 at $373,000 and they expect it to hit $600,000 in 2008. Western Canada in general is the highest with the East Coast areas being the lowest at around $125,000. These are prices for major Canadian cities. How does that stack up against you folks south of the border.... what are your prices like and have they been increasing over the past 3 or 4 years or declining?

Hang in there bud!! LOL... I had a doozer of a dream night couple nights ago. This is start of week 2 for me on the Champix (that's what they call it here in Canada). Feeling a bit "wierd" today... so far...

Smoking a pipe sounds like a good "alternative"... I may take that up..we'll see. N-E-Wayz .... wife & I had a little "ceremony" last night .... we had 3 cigs left in the pack I bought Friday after work. We poured ourselves a shot of Sambucca, lit up 2 of the cigs, ripped up the pack and the 3rd cig, lit them on fire , smoked the 2 cigs and made a toast to our transition to being non-smokers.

Sometimes while driving the car, I wave vigorously at an oncoming motorist. Ever have someone wave like that to you? You go along wondering... "now who the heck was that? Do I know him/her?"...

I won't be on that thread... I enjoy my rum & coke, wine, liquers, and beer ... I don't drink excessively but I do enjoy them.

There always seems to be at least one cage-jerk who thinks he's in a race with you. Seems no matter how much faster you go or how many lane changes you make or how many other cages you pass, there's always one jerk who seems to feel he can keep up with you as if he's in a race with you. This happens all the time and not just out on the highway... even around the city.

hmmmmm what kinda tobakky you got in that pipe? speaking of which, no one has answered my Q about pot yet LOL

AFTAsx?... once a month? who is that lucky? If I followed that program, I'd be a non-smoker today! :sign20:

Pretty good... I kept it down to mebbe 3 smokes from the time I woke up 'till I got home after work yesterday. Then I had a whole one. Wife got home and we changed to go out for dinner, drinks & dancin. We shared one before we went out but didn't take any with us. Got home around midnight, had 2 puffs and went to bed. I've had 2 puffs..no 3 puffs this morning so far and I've been up for 1.5 hrs. I made a mistake on "butt out" day... it's actually Monday that will be the first day of no smoking.

I would not take AKRefugee's post seriously at all.... thought it was pretty funny actually!

In support of 1st genners, I have had several occasions where folks have thought my 20 yr old scoot was new or near new and were absolutely aghast that it is 20 yrs old. I had one guy do a double-take like I've never seen before... then he started inspecting the bike closely obviously in an attemt to disprove me telling him it was 20 yrs old... he just couldn't believe it! OK you 2nd genners.... top that! :witch_brew: :rotf:

LOL... one thing my wife and I are noticing is our timing of things is way off. Our routine in the morning WAS... get up, grab a coffee, go out on the deck and drink that coffee, maybe even another while we smoked one or 2 cigs each...well, at least I did. Then head for the shower, get dressed, grab another coffee and a smoke, have brekkie, jump in the car, have another smoke or 2 on the way to work. We'd get up at 5:30 and hit the road by about 7. Now, we get up..she hits the shower right away, I grab 1/2 cuppa coffee...down a few gulps and hit the shower. She doesn't smoke at all in the morning. We both get dressed then I get a bit more coffee and have 2 or 3 puffs. We then have brekkie and.... hey!!! we're 1/2 hour ahead of ourselves...it's 6:30! what do we do now for 1/2 hour! Time to change the alarm and sleep an extra 1/2 hr! She doesn't smoke all day until she gets home. I've cut down to 3 or 4 cigs from first getting up to arriving home after work. I'll then have maybe another 2 before bed time. Each day I am cutting down a bit more so that by next Monday (Tuesday is butt out day), I will be pretty much off the cigs all together and have slowly changed my habits. The pills are starting to work because I am getting at least one of the side effects. I had some of the wildest dreams last night EVER! LOL
