    freakin' thieves

    Ok, so :spank: me for not noticing it. But on the ride home tonight I kept hearing an odd sound. I couldn't place it. It wasn't effecting the ride so I didn't stress on it. So I finally get home, put the bike up on the centerstand to give the chain a quick spray with lube only to find that my...

    Frame sliders

    This is an inexpensive set of sliders that I bought off of ebay. They've got nice aluminum inserts and take all of 5 minutes to install. You'll see in the pics that the left slider is a little bit deformed at the base. I'm assuming this occurred because that portion of the slider was probably...

    *** Clamp is sold. thank you, Sebastian. One of a kind. Manufactured by Acculign, for Hellgate. I purchased it without realizing that one has to run clip-ons with it. And I had it powdercoated before I made this realization... d'oh! Anyhow, it's a beautiful piece of equipment and is truly...

    Rizoma bar ends

    Sold. Thanks, Pete. Brand new. I opened the package and attempted an install but didn't even get the job done. I don't want to hassle with moving my controls inward. And they're going to charge me something for having opened the package, so rather than return them and just lose money that way...

    R6 forks and Powdercoating done

    Before I get into the work that I just did, I've got to give a major shout-out to Brad (dako81) for the very nicely machined fender brackets and spacers. If you're considering doing the R6 fork thing, and you've got an '06 or older, you need to contact him for a set of his goods. Great stuff...

    Breaking Bad -- ok, it's a tv series

    Anybody else watching this series? Despite the bleak subject -- a science teacher get cancer and decides to cook meth as a means to generate funds to leave his family -- it's really well done for a television series.

    R6 fork oil change

    My question is for the folks who've got the R6 forks on their bikes. How difficult is it to change out the oil -- are there any special tools required for pulling the forks apart? That's really my question. I've got a copy of the R6 manual and they show a couple of special tools in use but I'm...

    A.I.G.=america is giving

    Ok Steve, we can get the pitchforks and hot tar going for the tools at AIG. At least if we go after them, we won't get branded as traitors for trying to overthrow the government... Seriously though, what gall.

    Any Son Volt fans in Austin?

    Hey folks, I had a United Airlines voucher that was about to expire so I decided to use it to see a show, in Austin. Son Volt is playing at Antone's on the 25th of February. Tickets are general admission and I think were only $20. Such a deal. I'll be there... Drop me a note if you think you...

    Any M.C. Escher fans?

    Here's a link to an article on Scientific American about artists rendering "impossible view" art -- the kind of stuff Escher was known for. In fact, the lego renditions of Escher bits are really cool. You'll have to go check out the slideshow to see how the attached image was made...

    Complete airbox mod kit: k&n, lid, and oil

    I tried it but decided to just return it all to stock form. This is from an '06. I'm not sure if it will fit other years -- probably will, but don't ask me... I ran the K&N filter on my bike for about 1k miles. Didn't run it long enough to really even consider cleaning it. These run in the...

    Nelson-Rigg CL-150 tail bag

    Purchased new, used very little. No visible signs of wear. Holds a full face helmet in its unexpanded state. When expanded it is about four inches taller. You might be able to squeeze a jacket in there, too. Not sure, never tried. Can be attached either by its attached bungies or strap...

    Pridmore Class military comp (freebie/discount)

    Hey folks, I was looking at the Reg Pridmore site and came across a note that they'll comp military folks a day at the Streets of Willow or a $100 discount elsewhere. There's fine print and all that, but hey, may be worth a look. And they've got their 2009 calendar up, too. Class

    I love pune

    A co-worker recently emailed me a shot from his camera phone of a license plate with the above declaration. The car was in our work parking lot. A few days later, the driver of said car was arriving at work at the same time as me. It was one the developers, a nice, younger Indian guy with...

    Oil at $77 a barrel...

    I don't claim to be all that bright, but how come when the price per barrel went up we saw an immediate upward jump in price but now that it's down, we don't see a corresponding drop? Have stations already paid for a certain amount from their suppliers at the old, higher price and yet to get...
