wait did you get the coppa or the cafe? you said cafo but your info under your name says coppa, I love the coppa I almost wish I would have waited for that to come out, but then thats crazy talk I'm happy with my bike.

yeah I love that paint job, its why I bought that tank and am going to swap it out next year after I find one of pauls tail peices. Oh and a CF front fender. Then I think I'll be 'done' with this bike as far as look and such.

I want a Subaru STI partly for the all wheel drive partly because its a phallilc symbol, I need to make up for my small manhood. The car gets 18 if you punch it but 25 if you're nice. I like the looks and for the money can't beat the performance.

Point Given, nice looking bike but I bet it had plenty of problems too.

eh, I'll let Dr.Docc chime in, if he is indeed hurt by anything I'll remove the misconstrewed comments myself. ppl need to go ridding more and typing less, I'm done with the banter forum. egh.

honestly, I meant Dr. Quackery as a sly respectful pun. I remember the drawn out conversations we had about his profession. Sorry it came out wrong ppl.

thats very true, at 30mpg we're basically driving the SUV version of bikes. Harleys and beemers for the most part get 50 as for world afairs I could come up with a semi-intelligent answer but then I'm young and more worried about how I'm going to get a new car, job, food, Basically not secure enough to spend this much time on issues we can not influence nor change in anyway. I think in some ways idle hands are the devils play things should today be changed to idle minds, The more money and less you have to do(for work) seems like the ppl that speak up the most, even if they don't know anything. I say head down shoulder to the wheel make whats around you better and f the world(I know impossible), I miss pre pearl harbor USA. they were simpiler times

this coming from Dr.Quackery, I actually don't think we have much of a problem, maybe its the heet, maybe its the large amount of freetime after running out of things to fix like stated but I don't think anyone on this forum sucks I think dingaling can go a little over board, ratchet might too sometimes but I have yet to make it all the way through one of this posts. I always marked it under friendly banter like you would do with your friends over a glass of wine and tell them bush? you like bush? what are you a f'ing moron? and ya know have a lil spat but youre still friends afterwards. Politics don't dictate who my friends are. believe me I have a large mix. I've heard "42% of all liberals are queers" And guns don't kill ppl, women drivers do, (cagers as you call'em)

oh I dunno mix one part balls and one part complete disregard for everything you learned on a street bike and you'd probably be alright. I'd really like a supermoto if nothing else than to jump curbs and go where I want when I want, well without breaking too many laws that is. Would be the perfect toy. Might not be a bad investment although getting a place to go offroad is well over an hour away. I couldn't see riding one of those for an hour on the open road, ick.

I'm with nog, if the bike starts to let you down the point that you don't know if it'll ever keep you up again it has to go, I don't care if its a MV Agusta 750 America, Its gotta go. I am thinking a beemer for touring myself. Used of coarse and much cheaper than the harley for now. Mostly because I need a 4 door, with a second kid on the way and all. honestly I don't know where I was for this one.

you sure you're not from montana? how many emergencies could you have? I guess you REALLY don't want the king of england ti come in and push you around.

ohhh I dunno I bet this is accurate to a ways with some practice... but if you run out of bullets you can use it like a baton.

JESUS CHRIST .... good thing I don't drink beer.

I really want the S&W 500 revolver I've heard if you get a good sight and a steady hand its accurate to around 300+ meters or so. I've heard of ppl that take it deer hunting, while not legal in this state to hunt deer with a revolver they carry it as a *backup* and just leave thier rifle on thier shoulder.

yeah I just eat at buffalo wild wings, cleans me right out and I'm good to go. if you don't have one in your area white castle will do the same, or jack in the box. gotta save all the weight I can since I carry a full size spare around my midsection. I'm with the doin it once idea.

redline....MMMmmm taste like creamy metal parts protectant goodness... I'm redline throughout now, and looking to get an STI next year. gonna do my own oil changes with all redline. they make some seriously good oils. good in coffee too.

what he said I can't recommend them enough. installation takes longer to get your current bar ends out. They are solid SS, or powder coated steel depending on what you want. they look great and must be the perfect weight I feel more in the pegs than the bars. throttlemeiser is good too but I'm not as big a fan solely on looks.

That guy must have a huge sprocket I've heard makes it much easier to do mamoth wheelies but gives your topend huge shortcomings. Would still be fun but I bet that guy could wheelie a plate of speghetti Makes me want the Superduke tho not a duc, That LC8 just seems like the perfect wrongway mounted twin powerplant.

this could get ugly, but leave it to the US to figure out a way to make money on something thats free. The government might not look too bad here for say taxes but they get thier money, oh you better believe they get thier money coming, going, eating drinking breathing. I wish there was a way to check the uncheckable if you have 2 dollars, you need 1 to buy air, but you owe the IRS 2 dollars you better pay the IRS and learn to hold your breath. I wanna move to norway I've heard good things about those guys the fjordes the free healthcare the laid back warm beer drinkin scandanavians

I edited your post because you wrote how does a nolan stack up to a nolan, anyway I love my nolan XL in fact I ha ve the n100 and I forget the other but its an openfaced one with a face shield I also love my suomy guzzi helmet xl, all my helmets are modular but when you wear a 7&3/4 hat size haven't found a single push on one thats comfortable. but what I'm saying is that the nolan is similar to suomy haven't tried a shoei.

I bet it could take down any GP bike but it is 1300, and a turbo among other things I'm sure. but thats sick. sick sick, looks fun.

actually and I have some knowledge on this.... Minnesota has in fact 2 seasons road construction and Winter I also know there isn't a single day that goes by that someone isn't riding thier bike to work or for fun I don't care how much snow is on the ground. I also can't begin to tell you how many roads are down to single lane with flagers, lights are out...cones cones everywhere. I hate this state you can't get anywhere anytime of the year if its not being plowed its being plowed up for new roads. there is actually a winter bikers club similar to those freaks the polar bear club that jumps into frozen lakes for fun. apparently these harleyesq bad asses only wear thier leather vest for the winter riding as well none of those BMW full body snowmobile style all weather suits for those idiots. anyway our state bird is the mosquito, the taxes will bleed you dry if the bugs don't and the summers are so humid you'd swear youre melting. but I sleep pretty good at night because it could always be worse, ... I could live in iowa

the guy with the camera (prolly on a gixxer600) got passed like he wasn't even moving at 175mph and how that dude is hanging on with only one wheel and no, NO wind protection. He'll be dead soon.
