All around machine shop ****. I have a lot of hats to choose from. Engineer - Designer - Draftsman - Machinist - Inspector - Floorsweep. The pay sux but I like this job. It's something new every day and never a dull moment!

Sad news indeed. Thanks for posting Rusty. Kelly

At a friends b-day party. We were both pretty lit up. The bike had already been put up for the night:punk:

These folding pegs came from a bargain bin at a Hardley dealership. The frame mounts were cut and drilled from a piece of stainless sheet by a friend (Thanks Billy!) They are nice for laid back riding. They fold up at the touch of a toe for the twistier stuff too!

Why not? Everyone has the option to join or not to join. I personally look forward to each issue of the V-Boost. And, I too have made many very close friends via the VMOA. When the club was in it's infancy, it was much easier to keep in touch and organize get togethers. There was also the...

I live west of Houston and missed the worst of it. However, I work on the west side (Katy) and am temporarily unemployed as our shop has no electricity. One of our buildings also lost the roof! Ike sure had a big punch for only being a Cat 2!

FWIW I've noticed that since I started using the Cu based anti-seize that I use a lot less heli-coils. :biglaugh:

That Aprilia do be sexy!! :drool:

With the exception of the stock cans, I like this bike. They've set the bar pretty high for Yamaha. It will be a tough call when it comes time to put my money down. I may do like Buster and get a Busa or ZX-14 and keep my old max for riding naked! Side note: Yesterday, after 3 months on...

+1 on New Enough! I put someone there's kid thru college!! :thumbs up:

Appreciate it. I ran a search before posting but came up dry. The JR Manta XL has potential!

New tank bag The old POS from JC Whitney finally gave it up. I'm in the market for a new one. Being lazy, I prefer the magnetic mount style. The old one had a tendency to lift at speed and had to be backed up with a bungie for anything over 70 mph. Can anyone recommend a decent mag bag that...

I took both 13 courses at Sill. I don't recall the company #'s. 30 yrs and 30,000,000 beers have burned a lot of memory circuits! :ummm: :cheers:

Sorry to hear of it Sean. I lost a riding buddy Aug 4th. It ain't easy. Hang in there brother.

Re: Holy S%$t!!!!! Those wheels are tight!!!

Small world! I carried dual mos 13E and 13F. I always liked the hill better than the trailer. Better class of people too ;-) Picked up a 46K field wireman stamp too. They got tired of me bitchin about commo and sent me to school! :smileystooges: Edited for: Great Post 44Magnum! And so...

I haven't been stopping by quite as often as I used to. I trashed my back last fall and just now getting comfortable on the bikes again. :stickyman: Got to ride this past Sunday. Two Aleeves and 150 miles. Good stuff!!! :coolgleamA:

From the brief job description you gave, it's obvious you're not flipping burgers and wearing a paper hat. If you're only making 10.50 after 2 years, and exposing yourselt to potential litigation, it's time to update the ol' resume.

Your local Yam dealer could set you up. You'll pay premium $$ though. If you're a VMOA member, they have some discount OEM parts houses that give good discounts. They also have a buy / sell / swap board. Check their site. www.v-max.com I got a late model used set for Ol' Crusty from Furbur...

My old Hindle 4-1 sounds pretty good. I stopped by the Ol' Man's place when he got his new Mark's pipes a couple years ago. They sound even better!
