  1. we started w/ the fireworks, but someone decided to do a science demo for his friends( whistling) and then the cops showed up. they radio'd in that it wasen't fireworks and the poor cop had to repeat it 3x and then had to give a whole chemistry lesson over the radio, the police chief live around the corner so they called him to come over to see before he came back to the station(must have been home for lunch). he saw it and shook his head and said "ain't no law against having water"
  2. Bluetraxx.com , it's a BHQ for all Yammies. most of the guys over there get pretty uptight when you mention other brands over there(especially the "H" word, honda, not Hell. ) last time I visited.
  3. dunno myself. never dealt w/ them myself. just call them up and say you "bought a bike that had their stuff on it and while you were going over it, ya noticed the part was in bad shape and ya wanted to find out about getting it fixed and if the warrentee still covered it before you started to shop around for new parts." Try to buff them a bit, they don't need to know you only bought the arms them selves. a lot of times companies will toss you a bone and cover it or cut you a deal if they know you have their stuff already and you hint that you may spend the money and go w/ someone else's stuff because they wouldn't fix their stuff. just got to be nice/polite and real subtle about it, like it's not that big a deal. that way they get the impression that your already started looking around and not too worried about it. 99% of the time it works like a charm.
  4. and remember to get the left-handed smoke shifter to do that, not the right handed one. works must better than the reverse threaded widgit.
  5. got to "my controls", then under "Menu" on the left, down to "Personal Profile" where you'll see "Edit Avatar Settings". from there u can select a pre-loaded one, upload one from your computer or link to one saved on an online image host. but "must be no bigger than 80 pixels by 80 pixels in size. Uploaded avatars from your computer must be no larger than 40 KB.The following file types are allowed: gif,jpeg,jpg,png"
  6. I got nothing useful to offer here, myself. I haven't had a g/f in 10 years, actually to the the week. dumped my on the 25th( you tend to remember things like that when u have a $4,000 engagment ring in your pocket when it happens). Still dealing w/ my own demons from it, so I'm of any use to anyone in cases like this.
  7. That's funny, since the dial-a-jet is based off the Lectron pick-up system that has been used by motorcycles and dirtbikes, and later ATV's, for about 40 years. And a lot of 2-strokes at that. Not saying he's a poor mechanic, just might not have a lot of expirence w/ them.
  8. as per Clymer, just over a quart and a half(1.6 us qts.) for an oil change, 1.8 qts for a rebuild.
  9. someone must have said something.
  10. Wasen't refering to you.
  11. I don't care about the plane, I want to know what the orange coloring is from. Ice pop or cheese doodles??
  12. I hate people like that. no idea what the hell they're selling. but the fools who put "not this, that and the other" in the titles really piss me off and waste my search time. Well, duh Banshee parts won't fit into a LT80( at least not without some MAJOR customizing). but most people looking for the parts usually are smart enough to figure that one out. and for those who aren't, put it in the damn description.
  13. I was thinking the same thing.
  14. mine does what I want. proposely bought it just so I didn't have to lug other people's crap. just enough room for boots, bike and ramps. But like a dumbass, I got a trailer, so I'm still lugging other people's crap.
  15. Maybe. but at least he's got people to talk to about it even if they don't say much more than what you said. sometimes just speaking openly about it helps some folk. I didn't have that w/ my Ex(make she rot in HELL, long story.) and that why I'm screwed up to this day.
  16. I knew there was a reason I liked Brooke. She's got a dirtier mind than I do.
  17. I got an '03 S10 ZR2 W/ ext cab(one of the last ones before the ZR5 and Colorado came out). my Banshees and 250R fit, but real tight.
  18. Gotta love 'um.
  19. I'd check the timing. I dealt w/ a guy that had a major kick back problem w/ an ATC 250r, and when it would actually start, he had 5 speeds in reverse(ran like crap too, but it ran). He messed up his timing so badly the thing was firing way to soon and actually forcing the thing to run backwards. Wouldn't have believed it, if I hadn't have seen it myself. Luck he didn't bust a rod or something.
  20. Ummmmm...........Yeah, what they said.
  21. and usually their the one that comes running to you when they have an "Emergency" I get those alot too. got a boss like that. when he's in a bind, he freaks and hollers "I need your help, it's an emergency." that's when one of us(there were 4 us us standing there at the moment) pipes up" Poor planning on your part, don't automatically make it and emergency on ours." best part was his boss was standing around the corner where the guy couldn't see him and is laughing coase we were just talking to him and said it would happen. As for the penis wrinkle at addiction. Fuck'em. even a few of the other members are up in arms yelling about it.asking what the hell was he thinking. Besides I got better places to be. a couple of the other places I visit are ready to put my ass to work writing "how-to"s and builting a tech sections for them.
  22. it's in my Sig ATV Addiction. the new name of the new store is Precision Racing. out of Orrstown, PA( i think that's still the address.) got a reply from the new owner "because you were doing neg things and your also on the competitons board posting neg things and saying go to xc bob's site and i'm the new owner so i banned you also they banned me off thier sites for advertising so i'm doing the same to anyone you advertises on my site" I pretty much told him that he has no idea what he's talking about and to prove it.if not, reactivate my account and agologize or remove all my posts. basically the guy is pissed cause I'm friends w/ the guy who owns XCbob.com(and a Mod on the board), cause Mike(aka XCbob, sells used parts on eBay, got a bunch of good deals from the guy) and the guy don't like each other(never have). He's gonna be real pissed when no new members post. Little does he know the activation link for new members to sign up don't work since the server upgrade in Sept. Keeps sending them to the old server to actvate the account. That server isn't there anymore(phyically there's a hole where it was mounted.) I've been manually turning them on for people. How ya like me now, Chris (ya bastage).
  23. turned the big 3-0 last Dec. but, It's not the years, It's the mileage. and I'm well past the average.
  24. I'm not worried about the ones I "seem to have miplaced", just a few jokes nothing big. just thought I was lossing it for a moment.
