    I think these will sell pretty damn well if they can get them out in the world. I likey just want a new tailpipe and a cleaner tail cluster but thats it.
  3. Isn't it an eagle? and if your eagle badge has fallen off wouldn't be a bad idea to blodge a hole and put in a rubber plug for adjustments.
  4. Hey I found an award to present to Belfast for being a great figurehead for the Scuras.

    V11 Cafe Racer?

    Those alum tanks are awesome That might not be a bad idea for me getting a new tank instead of a paintjob seeing how my tank is apparently warped somehow in more ways than one starting to bubble and sucks like the dickens. Anyone know how hard it would be to fit one to a 2000 V11??
  6. Funny I found one for BFG too....
  7. I think we have a weiner. here's your prize
  8. I'm sorry but are you icelandic or retarded?

    Mines been a Rock since I got it only problem was when the throttle stuck don't forget to oil your TB connecting rod. who knew?
  11. Since we're in a sharin mood I ran over MY OWN LEG on a Honda 250 Three wheeler, There's a reason those things aren't made anymore I had rolled twice earlier that day. here it goes Sooo I was out in a field going up hill through some kinda tall grass aprox 5mph then I run over a gopher mound on the back right tire(didn't see it) kicks my left leg back in the process which pushes past the plastic mud guard(I was real off balance) and the wonderful knobs on the tire grabbed onto my shoe like velcro and yanked it under faster than you can say full leg cast. The best part as it pulled me off it was still in first and contiunuied up the hill for just a few second without me....then died...I knew something was broke(in 3 places I found out which they had to rebreak or break more to set it) and I lay there thinking oh shit I'm in the middle of nowhere right now and nobody knows which field I'm in(there was about 1,000 acres for me to roam) Anyway so the honda died then decides to roll BACK down the hill STRAIGHT at my broken leg I'm going oh shit oh shit as I scoot backwards as fast as I can so my leg doesn't get run over AGAIN. Best part of this story as I lay there for about an hour or 2 I see some ppl on the road driving looking for me but the grass is so high and I'm aways back they couldn't see me so I have to crawl back over to the f'n honda climb aboard, start it and drive out about a mile to the closest house I Think that was the most pain I've ever powered through in my life. I shifted with my hand and went slow. Sidenote I was very affraid of needles (I was about 13) and couldn't swallow pills without choking so they force stuck me with painkillers in my in my bum.... then later they took my nurse buzzer away from the excessive buzzer request for more morphine shots. We should all compete for a prize in this thread
  12. ALRIGHT NOW Almost everyone at my company drives a forklift daily we load our own trucks so we have about 18 forklifts all electric which is what thiers looked like too I Didn't see a propane tank and fuel forklifts are often much larger So... first off these babys stop on a dime turn on a dime and are slow as hell top speed on my screen was 8mph We've had a Keg impaled b4 I Wasn't there for it but I imagine it was a huge budweisery mess. And we use those pallets all the time to lift ppl up its totally not safe but its much quicker if youre not a dumbass hell I've ridden on just the forks. Other than that a guy did back off a truck he hadn't chocked put a pallet on which pushed the truck fwd then just backedup without looking boooooom on the floor if the guy wasn't a burntout hippie he might have been hurt. That opening scene where he almost runs a guy down tho. Thats happened to me a couple times on both sides of the equation...the doorways have low visibility because of the plastic flaps to keep the crap beer cold. The good beer in the back like Swiness and basstards, they're kept warm like those crazy engrish like to drink it.
  13. The ST looks uglier in person than I thought it would. It just looks like a toy like a cheap plastic toy. all biased aside I know I like street fighter style more but I almost bought the old ST and in person the older one is much more pleasing. Now the Triple is another matter I hear its fast as the dickens and when I Sat on it riding position was similar to siting on the Buell. So I bet it handles like a dream too then. They just need to line up all the bikes around and then let you take them for a short spin to get a feel. Some dealers won't let you test ride much of anything at all just have to go by Gut. and I hate going by my gut its more often wrong. I'd pay for this service its crazy I know cause then everyone would want a ride but sell tickets or something.
  14. Looks like that tail section would clean up real nice too cut off the extended fender and slap on some LEDs baddabing baddaboom. I'm sure a PCIII so get the bike then drop another grand on it out the door.
  15. You Freaking read my mind. Partly why I like thier "california" edition looks like an Aprilia Can....hmm I wonder
  16. you get ahold of racerx then? I hears he was looking for ya
  17. Oh my thats a lotta work and with no noticeable gains I saw on that thread. As far as Ooomph. I have the same setup as you and downloaded a map for it but its not perfect I still have some hiccups once and awhile but if I hit even the smallest bump on take off the front wheel will come up. didn't do that b4 without cluthing it. I'd just like to add the FBF pistons and be done but I'd rather not change out perfectly good pistons so I might buy a set and hold onto them for a couple years then install them then she will hopefully truly be 'finished' with that mod. assuming I get the tailpeice and a paintjob by then too.
  18. funny seems like all the italian brands are pretty sound mechanically but when it comes to Electros I think callison should setup shop and show'em some bizness.
  19. thats half the reason I Want another ride to go along side. I know the guzzi is built like a tank but little things can always go wrong with two steads one is always(hopefully) ready to go. Plus so many of my friends want to ride and none can afford it at all so if I teach'em a few said they'd pay me and if they ride my bike anytime afterwards they'll just be paying for the gas that goes into both rigs. None of them are riding the Goose tho. Not very good for beginers.
  20. I find that very offensive. They prefere to be called Black Cheetas.
  21. can someone explain to me this supermotard racing idea? only thing I can think of is if it has two wheels why the hell not. What I want to know is when are they going to have those kick skooter races? I'd pay to see some of that.
  22. Whys everyone hate the engrish so much? what'd they ever do to you? Alls I know is we have rights so the king of england cant come over here and push me around
  23. I will look into that this spring I'm due for Engine, Tranny and bevel all new fluids. I read the manual cause I actually got one with my bike, ... its purdy and in about 7 languages it states every 6Kmi for oil and tranny every 12k for forks and some other stuff.
  24. Oh I've been to rotten b4. Its not that bad. I don't think at least 'I' don't think anyone was trying to make light of the situation as much as its a sad ordeal brought on by poor judements I'm sure we've all made some on one level or another and gotten lucky maybe without even knowing it gotten lucky. Any mild humor is more a defense of our own inadequicies?. But his could have been the rider avoiding a random Kangaroo or a kiwi bird I Don't know what they have there and at 175 the tiniest little correction pays off in huge other direction dividends. I say unless you are prepared (not ready just prepared) to die then the needle should never go that high without much training and a much more secure location in which to stretch ones legs. Even professional on closed groomed tracks take nasty spills doesn't put the odds in average joes favor one bit. But ponder this for a second. Think of the DUMBEST person you've ever met just complete moron. Well someone twice as stupid as that person probably has a Drivers license or worse a Bike endorsement. Thats who I really try and watch out for on the tarmac
  25. I think I might need to find a new dealer for service then I am by no means a mechanic if someone showed me how I could do it otherwise I'd be really weary. Did you replace the seals? I think they charged me $50 for just the seals.
