  1. I just got the Ipod mini about a month or so ago from circut city ($200). 4gig of space (about 1000 songs), very small, simple to use, flash memory so it does not skip at all, and sounds awesome altho this is also depending on your quality of music, and loud enough to drown out most noises. I went on fleabay and picked up a FM transmitter that just plugs right into the top of the player ($35) and all my songs now come over ANY FM radio. All I have to say is it is money well spent, anything smaller and you will find yourself getting sick of the songs on it and either constantly loading and unloading new songs or throwing it into a drawer and forgetting about it. The software included is super easy to use altho when the sold me the unit they said windows ME would work and that is not true. only windows 2000 or XP will work with the software. Hope that helps ya out.
  2. word for word...exactly what I thought.
  3. In the year 2005, the Lord came unto Noah, and said, "Once again, the earth has become wicked and over-populated and I see the end of all flesh before me. Build another Ark and save two of every living thing, along with a few good humans." He gave Noah the blueprints, saying, "You have six months to build the Ark before I will start the relentless rain for 40 days and 40 nights". Six months later, the Lord looked down and saw Noah weeping in his yard -but no Ark. "Noah", He roared, "I'm about to start the rain! Where is the Ark?" "Forgive me, Lord," begged Noah. "But things have changed. I now needed a building permit. I've been arguing with the inspector about the need for a sprinkler system. "My neighbors claim that I've violated the neighborhood zoning laws by building the Ark in my yard and exceeding the height limitations. We had to go to the Development Appeal Board for a decision" Then the Department of Transportation demanded a bond be posted for the future costs of moving power lines and other overhead obstructions to clear the passage for the Ark's move to the sea. I argued that the sea would be coming to us, but they would hear nothing of it. "Getting the wood was another problem. There's a ban on cutting local trees in order to save the spotted owl. I tried to convince the environmentalists that I needed the wood to save the owls. But no go! "When I started gathering the animals, I got sued by an animal rights group. They insisted that I was confining wild animals against their will. As well, they argued the accommodation was too restrictive and it was cruel and inhumane to put so many animals in a confined space. "Then the EPA ruled that I couldn't build the Ark until they'd conducted an environmental impact study on your proposed flood. "I'm still trying to resolve a complaint with the Human Rights Commission on how many minorities I'm supposed to hire for my building crew. "Also, the trades unions say I can't use my sons. They insist I have to hire only Union workers with Ark building experience. "And don't get me started about insurance. "To make matters worse, the IRS seized all my assets, claiming I'm trying to leave the country illegally with endangered species. "So, forgive me, Lord, but it will take at least ten years for me to finish this Ark." Suddenly the skies cleared, the sun began to shine, and a rainbow stretched across the sky. Noah looked up in wonder and asked, "You mean, you're not going to destroy the world?" "No," said the Lord. "The government beat me to it."
  4. oh ya, it's also not a good idea to reuse the flywheel after doing this...sudden impact to it sometimes causes the magnets to lose their charge, and it also stresses the metal on the flywheel itself making the metal weaker...it could break while riding and it's just my opinion but I don't think the plastic cover is going to stop that heavy thing from coming through and hitting your leg. Hope that helps ya
  5. Get yourself another set of pullers if you messed up your other ones...put a nut between the tip of your pullers and the crankcase end so they don't slip apart...tighten your pullers up on it as much as possible w/o getting a hernia then bang on the end of the bolt on the pullers with a normal hammer...eventually it should pop off...worked for me.
  6. Try some gunpowder that will make a good bomb
  7. I suggest a hacksaw, find a good welder, and some good paint if you catch what I'm sayin
  8. Any good looking and great running trail banshees out there close to SE Michigan? I'm going to be in the market for a new one withen a fiew weeks here...I was actually thinking of buying brand new but if someone has a trail ride already setup that would sure save me alot of time and $. E-mail me with a discription, list of mods, lots of pics, and asking price. [email protected] cheers
  9. They look alot like FMF Gold Series pipes
  10. Not that I'm a fan of killing people or nuthin, but if you do happen to get in the situation where you have to take someone out...shoot to kill!!! I can't tell you how many stories I've heard where criminals turn crap around on the innocent and end up sueing them for money. I heard this story not too long ago and even tho it's word of mouth I don't have a hard time believing it. This theif breaks into someones house, ends up falling down the stairs, breaks his leg and wakes up the owners. They call the cops and he gets arrested end of story right? well a fiew months later the homeowner gets a notice that he is being sued by this guy because there apparently was a toy on the stairs that he slipped and fell on which caused him pain and suffering. That's just one of many that I've heard and just the thought of it even possibly being true has me convinced of one thing.....SHOOT TO KILL, DEAD PEOPLE CAN'T TESTIFY. and yes cops have told me the same thing as long as they are in your house.
  11. That price isn't bad...maby check around on Ebay a bit I bought a set of Namura pistons last fall for $115 thay came in a kit with everything needed to do the job.
  12. Is this private owned land? Who has gotten permission to ride there? Do the trails go into Ohio to where I would need one of their ORV stickers? How can a cop try to stop people from riding on private land? I just had to ask because a couple years ago my brother and I went out to a spot in Brighton, where we were riding it was state land but apparently it's not designated for quads...so both of us got to see our quads take a ride to the impound yard on a flatbed...BS!!! So a couple hundered dollars later and a misdeminor now on our records needless to say we are a little more careful of where we ride.
  13. Basically when your reed pedal dosen't sit flat on the reed cage like superchicken said you can flip them over to extend the life of them. The purpose of the reeds is to close and make an airtight seal while the piston is on the downstroke so there is some compression in the lower case. when the piston reaches the bottom of the cylinder the compression forces the gas/air into the combustion chamber through holes in the cylinder that are now open. if your reeds are not airtight you will not get the proper compression to force the mix into your cylinder thus creating loss of performance. Hope that helps ya.
  14. I'm definately interested in the Ohio/Michigan riding spot, that's like a 30 min drive for me...hell even if it's a couple acre spot i don't care, it will cure the mad jonesing I'm having to go ride somewhere.
  15. WHY TEXANS CAN'T BE PARAMEDICS A couple of Texans are out in the woods hunting when one of them suddenly grabs his chest and falls to the ground. He doesn't seem to be breathing, his eyes are rolled back in his head. The other Texan whips out his cell phone and calls 911. He gasps to the operator, "I think Bubba is dead! What Should I do?" The operator, in a calm soothing voice says, "Just take it easy and follow my instructions. First, let's make sure he's 'dead' "There is a silence.........then a shot is heard. The Texan's voice comes back on the line, "Okay, now what?"
  16. Won't hurt your bottom at all I just put one on my bike and LOVE it...well worth the 35 bucks IMO...I set mine at 4 deg. and it works great on the trail. Hope that helps.
  17. Burgers make great laxatives...not very good before a date tho since you will be burping onions ALL night long. For some unknown reason they taste even better after a good night at the bar.
  18. Demon, My brother and I might have to hit you up for that spot sometime soon...I live near metro airport and altho I do love to ride the Mio area it's just too much to drive 4 hrs to go for a day trip. You would think that there were more places to ride (other than tracks) in southern MI but I haven't found any LEGAL spots yet. Mt. Morris is just lame IMO and my back still hurts from the trip to Gladwin last weekend. So let me know if you want some company when you go out again.
  19. Just filled mine up after rebuild...one gallon filled everything including the resivuar (sp?) Hope that helps ya.
  20. Maby try going to Yahoo autos...they give you the option of comparing up to 4 different autos with all the info on the vehicles gas milage/specs and user ratings also. Hope that helps ya.
  21. I would think maby a little more possibly...I'm guessing here but back then I was running 190 mains and you with your pipes you will be around the 300 main jet range (?1/3 size bigger?) So if this holds true then you will get about 66 miles out of a tank of gas which equils out to about 106 Km. That's just what I'm thinking tho, I dunno if my form of reasoning is correct... Hope that helps.
  22. Last year I did a nice trail up in northen MI, 66 mile loop total mild climbs, twisty trails, straight open runs, a little bit of everything...and at the end of the ride I had 1/4 to 1/3 of a tank of gas left on my banshee. That was just with the K&N pod filters and bored .040" over. I'm not sure how much more gas you will use with your pipes tho.
  23. LOL...throw in some muffler bearings and you got a deal!!!!
  24. Is this one of those cheap performance gain tricks?? I was reading the jetting "how to" forum and it noted that if you swith the coil wires you have to go up a size on your mains. Dosen't really make sense that switching the wires would increase performance but i dunno ...or do you do this in conjunction with a timing advance plate???
  25. What they forgot to tell you at the dealership: R ight A fter P urchasing T ransmission O verhaul R equired Kinda tells the whole story right there.
