I stopped accepting paypal on larger transactions a while ago. After reading all of the BS about people filing disputes months later, it scares me that someone is going to be a cunt and file a dispute on an $800 order. I also do not accept paypal for orders that are picked up. If something is picked up, you have absolutely ZERO proof that the item was ever delivered to the customer. Since this bike is likely being sold as "pick up only", I wouldn't accept paypal either. You just can't trust anyone anymore, and PayPal is becoming a joke with people filing paypal disputes just to fuck the seller.

It gives me sad face to see shock covers run on Axis shocks. You're ruining those shocks...

Contact any of our site sponsors that build motors and they can get you set up with anything you need. Also, boring the motor that small amount will not gain you any power. Go the least amount possible.

you suck. stop posting, and go away.

This fucking thread sucks. Every thread started by Chrisg sucks. Everything sucks. I hope tyler resets your post count back to zero... go suck somewhere else.

Oh man... you're getting a toyhauler or something with killer AC, right?. Ride at night, sleep during the day. We won't even go out there in late august... lol. mid-late July is the latest in the summer we have ever gone.

You're joking about going in august, right? It's going to be 115+ out there.

I've never been to Silver Lake, but I've heard LS is bigger. The state camp sites at LS are nice. Expect to ride your bike on asphalt, though to get to the sand.

Buy 'murrican! Only 'murrican! 'Murrica, FUCK YEAH!

If you want to sell the YFZ roller let me know.

Well, of course. Only a moron would install these in their garage.

I got mine today. Everything looks good. Packaged well. Can't wait to get it installed.

They're not "sealed". Those ball joints are actually just automotive tie rod ends.

Haha, I won't say which specific dealership it was, but it was a Ford dealership in San Diego County. It was a Ford TSB for something, I don't remember which, and that's when Ford instructed us to do it to every vehicle that came in for a LOF. I'm not sure if you think these holes are gigantic, or what, but I've never seen one leak, or anything get inside of it. I've never seen a boot "tear", or stuff get magically sucked into the boots. Even the WD-40 doesn't work it's way out of the tiny little hole. If you've ever taken your car to a shop for a LOF, odds are you've already got holes in all of your boots and just don't know it.

Thank God a real estate topic. Finally... With interest rates the way there are, there are more and more "barely capable" buyers creeping in on the market. They are stretching their pocketbooks to get into the absolute biggest and most bad ass house they can before the market recovers. Around here (Temecula, Murrieta, Menifee, Winchester) we have seen two bubbles already since the initial decline in the market in ~2007. 3000sqft+ houses were selling for the mid-low 200's, and they were being bought up by anyone who had good credit and a mediocre job. The fact is, to qualify for a $200k house, doesn't take a huge amount of money. FHA is 3.5% down. So $7,000 plus closing costs. Typically I have been covering allowable closing costs for FHA and VA buyers to seal the deal. We've been selling FHA and VA loans at 3.2-3.5% for the last 2 or 3 months. That puts your principal and interest payment at roughly $1,100/mo. There will be Mortgage Insurance, and other fees, like taxes, insurance, etc. Figure on your payment being $1,300 a month. We can qualify an applicant who makes as little as $3000/mo net with excellent credit. The fact is, homes are worth what someone is willing to pay. When we list properties, we have a very strict procedure that we follow when we're putting a value on a property. We do several CMA's (Comparative Market Analysis), and two to three BPO's, (Broker Price Opinion). We also pull individual sold comps of that property within a certain radius. In urban areas, we limit our radius to 1 mile, rural or suburban areas we expand as necessary to get good comps. "Comps" are properties that compare in age, square footage, lot size, amenities, br/ba etc. The ONLY comps we use in listing prices are SOLD comps. We do not use LISTED comps, as those prices could be artificially low to entice offers and effectively "auction" the property without conducting an official audtion. Alternatively, they could be artificially high because the seller is a douchebag and, as you stated, thinks their property is gold. I would venture to say that 90-95% of brokers in the country use the same method I do to value a property. No agent or broker wants to sit on a listing that will never get an offer, and waste valuable time and money marketing a property that will never be sold. Just recently, I had a lender that I work with come to me with a property that one of her clients wanted to list. They had a set price in mind, because they had an informal offer from a friend of a friend on their house. Reluctantly, I listed the home for them. It was 2900sqft, BRAND NEW, never lived in, 5br, 4ba, fully upgraded on 5 acres of horse property amongst the wineries here in Temecula. This area is practically my back yard, so I knew their pricing was ridiculous when I signed the broker agreement with them. It was a favor, so I did it anyways. They wanted $2.69m for their property. Effectively, the land itself, unimproved, was worth around $1.6m in the current market. Winery property out here is worth an incredible amount depending upon where it's located. This one is in a pretty good spot. I valued the home itself, with no property at roughly $313,000. I used the current "build" rates to put a number on the house since it had never been lived in, and was JUST built. Right now, homes are being built here for roughly $108sqft. $108 x 2900 = $313,000. That price includes the wildfire water reserve, well, septic, water/sewer gas/propane, electricity or whatever other utilities need to be dug/brought to the property. This was a move-in ready rate. $1,600,000 (property) $313,000 (improvements) = $1,913,000 (replacement cost) After determining what it would cost to re-build this home, it gave us a starting point. I pulled comps of similar homes on similar lots, and came up with a current market value of $1.96m. This was only a $40,000 profit for the clients. They were not impressed, and basically told me that my value was wrong. I spent another $2300 in ordering CMA's, and BPO's to further prove my valuation was accurate. A few BPO's came in slightly higher (10-15k), and the CMA's and two BPO's came in almost right on the spot. After showing this to the clients, they STILL wanted over a $2m price tag. I told them that being over that $2m mark, we will lose a ton of potential buyers who only search for <$2m. I did what they wanted, and listed the property at $2.01m. We didn't see a single offer for two months. Only about 4 showings, and none of them serious. 60 days rolls around, and it's time for either a price reduction, or we need to reconsider the marketing of this property. I already had it in home magazines, and every MLS in the region. There wasn't much more marketing I could do. I held broker's opens every other week, and even paid for the home to be included in the home bus tours around here. We got one offer of $1.69m, we countered with $1.99m, and they countered with $1.82m. Needless to say, my clients rejected the offer, and after my 120 day broker agreement was up, we ended our business relationship. The moral of the story is: Just because a home is listed high, doesn't mean that you can't throw a low offer at it. Often times, if it's listed high, the listing agent KNOWS it's listed high, and will be willing to try to convince their seller on your behalf to accept the offer. It is a rare occurrence (around here, at least) that homes are listed artificially high. In this current market, homes are (9x out of 10) listed artificially LOW to entice dozens of offers. It works, it's tried and true, and it's one of the most common practices among SFR listings.

The springs are only sold in Red now. This price does not include powdercoating the spring. Powdercoat is $45.00.

It's done at almost every place you take your car for a "lube, oil filter". The boots aren't under any pressure whatsoever. I've never seen any grease or anything leak out of mine... I marked the hole on all of my ball joints and tie rod ends with a white paint pen, and I re-use the same whole every time I do an oil change.

Yeah, it thins it out, but my 4wd suburban has had wd40 sprayed into all of the tie rod ends and ball joints since about 8,000 miles. If anyone is familiar with 4wd chevy front ends, they typically fall off after about, I dunno, like, 30,000 miles... lol. I've got 155k on the clock, and the entire front end is as tight as it was the day I bought it. I dunno, maybe I got lucky, but when I worked for a Ford dealer, it was standard practice on every vehicle that came in. Whether or not it's better than grease, I cannot say, however I always have, and always will do it to my vehicles. I'm a believer, I guess. Anyone who saw the suburban at LS saw that I don't drive it nicely in the sand either... She gets pretty hammered.

His new usernames are cyberbully and cyberbully1. Either way, file a paypal dispute just to rub it in a little bit... edit: I just remembered that tyler changed the name to "I'm a pussy".

Buncha rookies in here.

Duhhhh, didn't you know that only Tyler's jokes are funny around here? Get with the program sister!

In my opinion, I think the key to having these cranks last is to have them professionally installed. I think the novice builders are missing things and ruining the cranks themselves.

Through the 11th, here, it's only Banshee shocks... Through the 4th, it's all OEM rear shocks, with some exclusions.
