um.... Right. Still doesn't change the fact that nutcase had a fair chance and was givin time to check the bike out himself. Granted some things that were wrong would not be noticeable from the out side but thats part of the business. You buy a car and it throws a rod what do you do? Pound down the little old lady that sold it to you. No, you realize its USED and being that its a Banshee, probably abused and you check it out the best you can. When I bought my used bike I understood that I could take it out the first day and blow a piston to hell. But what I did was look and look untill I found a bike that was straight and not all hokey. When you check out a bike and test drive one you should be able to see red flags warning you of a "basket case". Have no simpathy for someone passing the blame... And as far as legal action... I personaly think that is pretty petty and this should be chalked up as a learning exp. I wonder if bansheecj3 could seek "legal advice" for slander here on the HQ... Sounds petty huh... Just the way I see it. RIPPEN

I ran to ace today and saw the clear braided hose but it said it was good up to like 125psi and 70 degrees Was I reading it wrong RIPPEN

Sorry man, I was just trying to keep it entertaining RIPPEN

I usualy thought Rogan did a pretty good job but last night he must just been stoned. Guy said allot shit that was off the wall, and Iam glad I wasn't the only one who thought that. I was also impressed with that choke. That dude was huge, and I thought it was funny when they called the fight and the guy that passed out was pissed cuz he lost. Acting like he was ok I also agree with you on the main event. I figured Randy would be more carefull like that but Chuck is fast and is a smart fighter. Just watched for Randy to press and make a mistake. Seems like in these fights its whoever makes the first wrong move is goin lights out. RIPPEN

Seems like you have the good attitude about it all and thats the most important part. Some guys like me end up with our heads in our asses thinkin its the end of the world. Then we realize chicks are kinda like Banshees... Some scream harder than others when you ride and and others just bog out. But its all part of the fun journey to find the perfect one who looks nice, runs hard, and and wont leave you stranded on the dunes... Those are the ones you need to hang on to but for some guys it takes a little while for that to happen. So untill then make sure to wear your safety "gear" and ride lots of different shees RIPPEN

One thing thats nice about a two stroke over a four is the simplicity. No f-in cams or valves to deal with. They will have to pry my Banshee outta my cold dead hands before I would go to the dark side and buy a "Rapture" RIPPEN

I agree. Right now my bike is all torn apart so I spend allot of time reading up on info and all sorts of stuff. I like the HQ cuz everyone here gets to be like a huge family so its always pretty entertaining to me If a person is just wanting to learn on this site it would take some time but when they were done they would know a bike inside and out. Just depends are what your wanting to get outta this site. Brooke likes it to run her power pimpin ring while say Helldriver trys to use it to spread the word of satan RIPPEN

Well Chuck won again... Kinda sucked that it only went to the second but thats kinda what I figured would happen. really liked Randy but the mans deff. gettin old. Thought it was funny in the Diez/Riggs fight where Rogan was sayin that he thought Diez won that fight. Musta been high cuz it looked like Riggs was MUCH better than Diez in the first and second. Good fights for the most part Now Iam just lookin forward to Franklins fight... That mans the shit RIPPEN

Northern Colorado(Loveland) 11hours isn't to bad on the way out there but it gets kinda long for a trip after some good riding. Just have to see if I can get a couple buddies and and some cash together RIPPEN

probably some truth to that Just looked it up on a map and its only about 11 hours.... Your twistin my arm man... RIPPEN

Damn.... Wish I could go . Be a kick ass time meetin up with everyone... Hum, I wonder just how far it really is... RIPPEN

Glad you don't live close to me.... Ride by only wearing a t shirt and backward baseball cap Very rarely will you see me without a helmet... RIPPEN

Yeah I understand what your saying. Whats bad in this case though is (it appears) that the guy was doing what he was told and the cop THEN fired. If the guy was not doing what he was told than it would be different. From what I could see and hear in the video it looked like the cop was deff. in the wrong. RIPPEN

This whole sueing thing is outta control and is only gettin worse... RIPPEN

Sorry this suspension crap is pretty new to me... What do you have to do or where do you take them to replace the balljonts in the stockers??? Thanks for the input guys RIPPEN

Those are GREAT RIPPEN

Just curious what a decent set of stock width a-arms would run and where can I find them. I ride some tight places and don't really want wider arms. Most of the good after market arms that I have seen are wider. Also Iam curious if you can just have the ball joints replaced in STOCK arms??? Thanks RIPPEN

I was just watching the news and it showed a cop that was caught on tape shooting some dude. Iam usually the type to give the cops the bennefit of the doubt in most cases but this didn't look good. Its dark so Its kinda hard to see but you can here whats going on. The dude (seemsis doing what he is told and the sheriff fires off like 3 times. I realize cops have a difficult job and really under appreciated but this looks like it may be a case where the cop is way outta line. You guys seen this vid yet. In southern Cali RIPPEN

Thats some of the good, bad and nasty RIPPEN

If you got the cash to throw at a four choke go for it. But you wanna go faster for cheaper I would deff go with a Banshee... RIPPEN

Just recently they had the fight to determine who Arlovski is gonna fight. Pretty lame fight, think Arlovski will win easely win. That guy is deffinatly a great fighter. As for the Hoyce/Hughs fight I think Hughs will probably get it. I rather Hoyce win just cuz I would like to see hughs humbled a little. I read where Hughs said that in this fight he is lookin to keep on his feet. I was shocked at that being he usualy does really well and likes the ground . As for whitehead Iam not sure about that guy... He may have been just camera shy but he was just so slow and sloppy. I know heavy weights are gonna be slow but it just didn't look like the guy even knew how to fight. But I agree it will be interesting to see if he comes around. The Diez/Riggs will be yet another interesting fight. I belive both guys are commin in off loses so you know both are lookin to turn things around. I think Riggs is a bit stronger but Diez is deff fast and has allot of heart. Showed that he won't give up when he fougth Sanchez... RIPPEN

Thats some funny shit. There has been a few fights lately that have been quick like that. One I watched the other night went 11 sec. Guy ran out and missed with his swing and left himself wide open... Lights out. Whats also funny though is how the UFC started. You watch the early ones and they look like they are just in a gym or somethin. Now its a huge event where tickets are like sever hundred bucks. Think spike has really helped the sport RIPPEN

Loveland Colorado... That Hq map is cool!!! RIPPEN
