  1. right. find a higher wattage dimmer or lower wattage bulbs. Unless you want to run at the max.
  2. Well, I got her up and running, and wouldnt ya know... As soon as I turned her on,,, Boom right to the BIOS. Nice... So I tweaked her a bit and then loaded XP pro. So far so good. Takes forever to update all the drivers (Mobo bios, drivers, Graphics card shit). But she is up and running. I will attach a pic, when I get a chance. What I like the most is the Case, it has 3 analog guages on the front that light up blue, they read the Processor temp, Fan speed and volume in Db. Lee, that thing is humungous, what does that weigh??? 125 pounds?
  3. The areo is doing well, It has been 900+ miles of sheer pleasure. I still need to take her in for the first tune up (been raining like crazy in Pittsburgh). But I just got her up to 95 today in the pouring rain, what a fun time that was... No windshield... My face had needles pricking it, but it all goes numbe after awhile. Went around drinking beer from bar to bar with a buddy of mine.. Hows your bike? How many miles do you have on it now?
  4. Glad to see ya back.. I Missed the attitude...
  5. i would have liked to get another video card but, at 380$ I will wait and get another after the system has been up and running. Since I didnt have to pay for the RAM I figured I would max out the board and run it dual channel. will let ya know how it turns out, once I get all the pieces.
  6. Ok, I ordered the pieces and its all on its way: AMD 64X2 4200 processor, A8N-SLI MB (Asus), WD 320 Gb Caviar SATA HD, Asus 1900XT 512Mb video card, a HP lightscribe DVD burner ( have a dual layer already if needed), 550 watt power supply. I will recieve all this stuff Tuesday. I am sooo Pumped. I also have a kick ass case on its way. I will of course run XP pro. And when Vista comes out next year, I will probably get into that. But I dont feel like testing out my new system with MS (on their free trial wear of the new Vista OS), because I want something more stable untill then. Any comments on any Hardware that I purchased?? All the reviews from newegg looked good on all of those components... Oh yea I bought 4 Gigis or ram for the MB. So It will be maxxed out right away on RAM. Oh wait yea,, It all didnt cost me a penny,,, Work paid for it...... Hummm. Yea Im a happy boy. And I didnt have to kiss ass to get it. See ya
  7. Floats are stuck... Your not getting any fuel into the carbs. Which means if its not your floats, or a bad choke tube (between the 2 carbs) then you are having a suction problem and are not sucking fuel into your carbs. Float stuck, bad rubber hose between the carbs (not Crabs) ((Hope you dont have those)).. Or your fuel is shut off goof ball.. Good luck :baseball_wassat:
  8. Hassayampa river basin. It is 1/2 hour West of goodyear AZ. Lots of people there all of the time. Some nice areas to ride, kind of sandy/ dirt. Can camp out under the overpass. Good luck
  9. Contact the DNR in that state or states and see what they say. Better yet, look online.
  10. I use pinnacle studio 9. Its pretty cool except if you want some of the extras they try to get you buy the extra transitions and crap. But in reality you wont need more than what came with it. My only bitch it can be a little glitchy. but worth 100$. good luck with movie maker, i havent used it.
  11. cant give advise on that. BUt sounds like it could cost a lot. Dont they sell some tool that will do that for you???? Oh yea a powerwasher,, get a good one for 200$ and put some bathroom drywall up ther to deal with the moisture...
  12. thanks guys, and yes let me know what u think of those pipes.
  13. I have ordered saddle bags and brackets, I found ebay to have the best deal on bags (like 50-80$) depending on what you want, any other motorcycle place wants a minimum of 150$ plus you still have to buy the brackets for another79$. I want to get pipes but I think I will wait till I break her in, I only have 45 miles on her right now. I also want to get the running boards, but damn 3-500$ for some stupid metal plates for my feet.. It just seems like everything is about 500$. Pipes are actually cheaper than the banshee,,, Go figure... I havent seen much else for aftermarket goodies for the aero 750. other than a few little items. I havent found a website that hass lots of goodies yet, I have just seen a few things at various sites. Peace out
  14. Hilarious... Thats the the other one I was looking at, I really like it, and that model has much better paint jobs. But I went with the shaft drive. If I remember right,, yours has 0.6 more compression than mine... I also wanted to go with the longer rear fender. Very nice
  15. I had a bike when I was in college, an 81 Honda CB650, a real POS, but it got me around. So its been around 11 years since Ive driven. I was a little nervous pulling into traffic from the dealership, but I got used to it pretty quick. I told my Wife that she would have to wait about a week before I felt comfortable giving her a ride. I have already spent 500$ on the bike today.
  16. yea, A Harley would have been nice, but I didnt want to spend 13K on stripped down bike. I only financed 5K on this one. And BTW: I looked at Yamaha for the Vstar, but the dealership was a bunch of pricks, they wanted me to title the banshee in PA before they would take it in on trade, I would have had to wait 8 weeks for the title, and then there goes 1/2 my summer. These guys were real cool (Z and M in Greensburg PA). Thanks again.
  17. Well, I traded in my 2000 Banshee that i bought new in 2K. I bought a 2006 Honda Shadow Aero 750. Black and Chrome. I feel bad I got rid of the shee, but I didnt have much time and places to ride it. So I now have a new toy to spend money on. See attached pics. This is my way of sticking it to "the Man" with these gas prices. I hope to continue to log in to the HQ from time to time, as this place is a great place for getting my mind off of work.
  18. What are they going to total it at? 1600$ off the price is a lot of money for a bike that is totaled.
  19. This is my bitch about gas. It is sooo Obvious that the oil corporations are taking advantage of whatever they can. But this is what I see, this is their method of lobbying for more refineries. We do not have enough (refineries) in the US and the damn EPA makes it so damn difficult to build new ones with their damn regulations... Now I understand that we need regulations to keep waste dumpers in check from totally runing our environment, but that is another lobby group that needs more attention. I feel we need more refineries and more nuke plants for our 110Vac. But neither has been buil new in the past 30 years because of the EPA. and the damn tree huggers.. That is what is fucking us. If we had refineries that could keep up, we would not be paying the prices we are. If there was only one mechanic in town, you would pay higher prices to fix your car, wouldnt you. And I do agree with PTT, because GWB's fix would only be temporary. We need more nuke power and refineries..
  20. I bet you blew out the o ring the the front brake master. Take off the lid and check the seal... Of course after you remove the dirt.. If your lines look good, then I would guess that o ring. Or maybe you hit a rock and broke a line.. If its comming out the top on the fron of the quad then I would look in that area. And no its not a common problem, so I would look over all of the fluid lines. Should be an easy fix. Good luck
  21. 51% extreme.. I guess thats good... Too Bad I havent gotten any lately.
  22. This crap pisses me off. Like it has been said already, If you are here Illegally, you have no buisness demanding shit from the USA. You should feel fortunate that you have been sneeky enough to not get caught living here and not paying taxes. And to set up a protest to Bitch about a government that you dont pay taxes to or have legal residency, is just down right Idiotic and ignorant. hey lets all go to Mexico and demand that all of mexico speaks english and see how far we get, I bet we would be locked up and or shot. If you want to be a citizen then you need to do what you are supposed to, like learn the constitution, speak English, pay taxes, pay for your own damn health care. Thats another thing, how can you be here Illegally and get these benefits? And also get away with out paying taxes? This whole march thing Gives the mexican people a worse name then they already have. Send the illegals away. I am not one to want to kill another human being, but the government could raise money for building the new wall to seperate Mexico by renting out a spot on the wall for a person to snipe out the people trying to cross the border. There would be plenty of takers, and I bet the Illegal immigration would slow down drastically. And these damn bastards would be too damn lazy to fight for this country if given the opportunity.. Fuck it,, Im pissed.
  23. I have an 03 GMC Sonoma, crew cab, 4X4 crew cab. The banshee fits fine with the gate down. I love the truck, the V6 vortek engine is awsome. I love this truck. I would recommend it to anyone. But it is not Full size..
  24. Either your carb caps have come loose and your air/fuel mix is getting messed up on that carb (happened to me), or you need to adjust the screws on the top of your carbs to balance both sides. That was also an issues I had.
