Man! That's gotta be rough! All that work, all that travelling, all the bashes and bruises, the struggle to get through 4 seven game series', all the missed golf tee times, bag skates every second day, taking the cup to a final seventh game and coming home with nothing to show for it except heartbreak, misery, and some frequent flier miles... the blue mile has been reduced to a trail of tears. Edmonton sucks. Canada's team my ass - I don't see no maple leaf on their jerseys! Stinkin' Oilers. Go Whalers! Rj

If wife won't allow motorcycle in living room, must move living room to motorcycle. Simple logic. Rj

just because I'm not paranoid doesn't mean you're not following me. Rj

ahhhh, the derailment of another thread. Warms my cockles. From informative to absurd in 5 posts or less... Rj

yup. Chimay - brewed by Belgian monks using some yeast that only grows in their basement (or something like that). Wonderful stuff. More like getting stoned than drunk. Just gets you up on the plane and mellow... Expensive is OK - you don't need a lot to keep the mood going. Rj

Definitely an inline twin. Rj

My dog (black lab) actually does this... well he tries anyway... Rj

It is a paving stone lubricator. It's name is Screetch. It was built by someone with a lot of Mechano parts. Rj

Stinkin Oilers. Go Canes!! Rj

1. Arrogant Bastard Ale - are you worthy? http://www.arrogantbastard.com/ 2. Chimay - blue cap Rj

At the moment I've just discovered why my trans started leaking so badly. One of the bolts (internal one of course) holding the rear trans cover on is missing. Either it was forgotten when Brit Ital did the warranty work, or it was loose and worked it's way loose and is now mashing about inside. It is the first bolt below and left of the filler neck. There are the other few long suffering issues (like horrendous mileage) that also need to be addressed. I'm sick of working on the thing so it's going to be an old bike summer. For every glorious hour of riding I've spent at least three hours working on it. I've gotten better service from my '70 Triumph. That's the problem with buying a bike with soul - it can be possessed! Last time I sat down to strip it down it immediately threw itself onto the Ducati. Just got all the busted bits for both replaced, now I notice the hole... Rj

My Guzzi is parked yet again with another mechanical problem. It will not see pavement this summer. I might zip down on the Ducati. That show is always so stuffy! Rj

More cushion for the pushin' Rj

Bad enough that we have the Tennista... Rj

Nice job guys. Yet another female wanders into the fold and you guys send her running for the hills immediately. At least it wasn't TX posting rude pics of himself that did it this time. Racist (prejudiced)?? How about a forum with, what 500? members - none of which are women? Now that this is the "pick on somebody else" thread, I think I'll slam those fat stinky self righteous ignorant idiots to the south. They're always good for a reaction. Let's get back to hammering the Yanks and leave the poor innocent Japs and Swedes alone. Oh yeah, keep hittin the Dutch too - them wooden shoes bug the hell outta me. And China - can't forget to insult the Chinese for building all these damn cheap scooters! Almost forgot the Swiss! What the hell have THEY done for us? And South American - let 'em have it! - no good lazy drug factories gottan nap every afternoon. The Aussies! Rotten buggers keep stealin' our women with their promises of "summer when it's winter" and "watch me loo swirl the wrong way". Worst ones are the bloody Canadians with their hockey and beer, seal clubbing, and allowing huge chunks of ice to fall off glaciers and just float around in the ocean. Ooops, that's me... When you point the racism finger, you're only pointing at yourself. Rj

How the hell did you get a copy of Heli-Jim's passport photo?? Rj

How the hell did you get a hold of my passport photo??? Rj

Once again I am poked with the stick. This "conclusive proof" Mr. Hack references is ONE semi scientific study of a K&N filter on a low revving DIESEL Chevy truck engine. His claim that there is "no OUTWARDLY PERCEPTABLE" effect on the motor is not even claimed by this study, but is instead an unproven corollary the good Mr. Hack has attached to it. The study claimes to have tested according to IEC (IIRC) standards, yet when one reads the standards, there are several test that are not mentioned at all in the study. The only thing conclusive about this study is its questionability. In a high revving engine, a filter that flows better WILL have a perceptable effect on an engine. You WILL notice a difference at the top of the rev range - an area left unexplored by our self proclaimed Road Geez. Yes it will flow more dirt, but it certainly isn't going to take out your rod bearings. As long as you change your oil and aren't riding on dirt roads full time. That's the trade off. Question everything. Especially one who is telling you that apples are oranges. Rj

If I was knockin her boots I'd be worried she might sneeze and pinch my willie off!! Rj

I might be right behind you Fernando. Seems like some get a good one, most get average ones, and some of us get machines posessed by the devil. I'm up to a miniscule 12K on my gremlin posessed beast, low only because of her propensity for down time. She's been parked since mid last summer. I don't even have the heart to think about working on it anymore. If there was anything on the market I found appealing I'd be trading her in fast. I bought a bike with soul. Unfortunately it was an evil soul. Last night I discovered why my trans was leaking again. A bolt was left out when she had her warranty work done. That or it worked itself out and is now bashing around somewhere in the trans. I've right nearly had it. I'll poke around at it this summer while I flog the old beasts around. Haven't had an "old bike" summer in a while. Rj

1min, 32 sec first try. Haven't come even close to that on any subsequent attempt - the force must have been with me on that first run. stupid game. Rj

The only reason for buying a HD is to feel better about having such a small prick. Or having none at all... Rj

Me want! Open the hatch and there's a Guzzi in there! http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAP...item=4641892634 Rj

Has anyone seen the "Pinks" (racers drag on TV for pink slips) episode where poser "Paulywood" complete with umbrella girls drag races his brand new Vrod against some early eighties Suzuki? Pauly gets his ass handed to him in a hat. By a twenty+ year old Jap bike. Harleys are shite. What was Ratchet saying about silk purses and sow's ears? Every HD I've ever been on, I couldn't wait to get back off again. I'd try a Buell if my head didn't stick out past the front tire. I'm with you Steve - crap fest on wheels. A really shiny, well made, excellent fitting turd. Rj

hatchet rack?
