Why is your name wheelsucker? PS USA will win over Italy 2 to 1!!! or maybe not...

...and check the charging system, too. Don't underestimate a good tuneup. But yah, some geese are a little too off and need the TLC of Mr. MY15, or Ms. PC, or that TuneBoy kid, or one of the other alternatives. Did you try switching back to the stock ECU?

I'll bet many athletes entering the global competition arena feel the militant vibe. Some of us Left wingers have realized for years that sports are war propaganda. I am sure the movie RollerBall was inspired by that premise. Vai Brasi!

I'll take the A, B, and C, even if A and C are D

Do these women look like sisters? http://www.missworld.tv/bio/bio.sps?iBiographyID=51629

Så Vidt Jeg Husker(As far as I can remember) it is a chain saw with springs, wheels and handlebars, but it might be a band from Minnesota? Or is that husker-doodoo?

One of the most interesting things I have tried is Utopias by Samuel Adams. Weird stuff, kind of like a sherry, or a prune juice, but with hints of brandy, and smokey flavor. Anyone else try?

Maybe if we me make racist comments about all the Motorcycle Making Nations, I won't get tied in a knot. So how about: No i dont use Suuedish industrial products because i think they are made by wery limited people. For example there is this story about, "the swede who was building himself a house. One of his friends came by and asked why the heck he threw away every second nail? "They have the nail-head in the wrong end", the man replied. His friend became furious with him and shouted, "How stupid can you get? Don't you realize that those nails were made to be used on the other side of the house???" Can't believe I wasted $2000 on a pair of Ohlins forks...the darn things are upside down Or how about: No i dont use british industrial products because i think they are made by wery limited people.There favorite sport is walking to and from the pub. When it is time to eat they have the worse cuisine in all of Europe.When they drink beer they dont use it as cool as possible as in civilised countries...no y¨they serve it at room temperature and it is considered good manners to be loud and obnoxious when they drink it.All there industrial development is sent overseas to countries where they can exploit people.Ewen the Suuedish wikings thousands of years ago paid fair wages for the makers of imported goods. Or how about: No i dont use Italian industrial products because i think they are made by wery limited people.There favorite sport is football and they always lose the World Cup.When they drink beer, it is crap...They should stick to wine and al dente pasta. All there industrial development is twenty years behind civilised countries technology.Ewen the Swiss watchmakers are more technically evolved!!! You won't catch me on one of their Moto Mussolinis!!! But atleast they have good food :-) Or how about: No i dont use Amårican industrial products, especially the Harley's that Nog likes that suck compared to the MT-01, because i think the Harleys are made by very limited people.There favorite sport is watching "NFL Football" and when it is time to eat they microwave their dinners, pop open a PBR(Pseudo Beer Rinse), that is only palatable with large amounts of salted junk food.they drink the PBR as cool as possible so they can't taste it...It is considered good manners to blast their Rush Limbaugh AM radio shows over their picket fences. All there industrial development is protected by armies of lawyers as is "their" oil in Persia that is protected by armies of brutal corporate thugs.Ewen the Swedish wikings thousands of years ago where more civilised. Anymore to add? How about Deutschland,France,Netherlands,Canada?

I have never tried a torquey bike like this, but I prefer the less revvvy Guzzi to a Ducati. I like the idea of more power at lower revs, but I also like the exhileration of the power increasing as the revs increase, which the mt01 may be lacking. much better exhaust than a Griso, but other-wise the Griso was spared some of the ugly stick bashing...I like them both

While some are beautiful and free from opression, until we lock them up because we are a bunch of paranoid racists..

But some are frightfully ugly

Thanx for the thanx. I know it is not easy to tolerate politically correct people.

My bike still isn't working. Sorry if I am a bit crotchety.

I spent over an hour compiling a list in this thread for DahBen...and I did not even get a valentine card for it

This criticism coming from the man who told me I was not allowed to criticize Harleys ie. So, don't tell me what I can or cannot knock...and then I won't tell you what you shouldn't tell me about what I am telling you about you telling me....this could go on and on. But first of all, you have clear misconception about my slamming our newest biggotive member. This has nothing to do with state control, corporate control, or freedom hating. On the contrary, "Political Correctness" about racism is a "Liberal" value that if implemented successfully inhibits state control, corporate control, and freedom hating. You can bury your head in the sand and believe that racism is not worth stopping. Peoplle like Christel disallow the Japanese to be themselves through mockery. Shame on her. As for me, I have been guilty of similar crimes. Harley Boutiques are not for me, but I did not give them verbal smackdown that she gave, and yet still I was scolded in your Harley thread. Nogbad, you are a hypocrite. Christel, Nogbad is absolutely correct. I am the minority...and I get into more arguments than anyone here....a complete waste of time... I am ALWAYS right, and the right-wingers are all wrong, but that does not matter. I should sell my Guzzi, drop off this stupid forum, and get a Japanese bicycle.... Good idea. I'll see if I can bite my tongue as more racist bigots post away.... Maybe I can get censored or kicked off the forum for being too PC

Well no wonder, you are from RACIST Atlanta

FWIW You are right, I was biting my tongue not to call her a racist, just because she is a new women on the list. I should not be busting my ass for this racist, but I got caught up trying to find the link to Frank and Skeeve' posts, and did not find them until the end. I almost went back and editted it all out, but I was lazy and I figured it would be better to annoy the racist Swede by slowing down her internet connection with images...that is how my lazy evil mind really worked. I really have no need to flirt with an ugly personallity. ...not that I have not bashed you Harley types, but I was alot more civilized in my bashing. Christel, just because I despise you, don't let me scare you off, I am not much liked around here by all the right wing softcore neo-fascists, and you will find plenty friends here. And if you do run away, they can all blame me...so either way it is a win win for you. Ben, you were asking how I really feel, right?

Here is a cross-section of the muffler, posted here http://www.v11lemans.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=3959&hl The exhaust gasses flow out the A, forward through the pair marked B, and then out C. If you drill the ends, some of the exhaust goes directly out the A to atomosphere. Here is an image posted by Mike Stewart Al R. posted an example of the drilling technique Frank and Skeeve posted a great series of images dissecting the muffler, here: http://www.v11lemans.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=3028 and this thread also has some nice images http://www.v11lemans.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=7261 This image shows why you might not want to drill it. You may get inconssistent performance as the steel wool shifts.

For anyone interested in the LSR details. ...but what is the deal with them not doing anything in three years?!?!?!? http://www.cookedgoose.org/

I suspect the Hagon is OK...but I suspect the Ohlins is better. The Ohlins maximizes available travel and has excellent damping. It could offer better adjustability. The Maxton. Wilbers, HyperPro, Penskes, and others offer better adjustability, but travel may be lost. Here is a thread that discusses some of the options http://www.v11lemans.com/forums/index.php?...opic=5488&st=15 Here is Big J's write up on the Maxton http://www.v11lemans.com/forums/index.php?showtopic=5631&hl= Here is Chris Beauchemin's write up on the Wilbers http://www.v11lemans.com/forums/index.php?...topic=5898&st=0

WARNING MOVIE SPOILER IN YELLOW TEXT I was just watching the movie, The Usual Suspects, and the last words from Gabriel Byrne's character, Dean Keaton are, "What time is it?" Keyser Soze replies 12:30 and then Keyser Soze shoots and kills Keaton.

Apologies. I am an idiot...I followed some path of google images to some website, cross-linked some neurons, and boom...came up with an ugly Meg, that uh, was not Meg... Is this Meg Ryan?

X8 !?!?!!!! YOU MANIAC!!!! I smell 100 HP Might be fun to run at Bonneville Salt Flats
