  1. I though odaens response had me lauging....
  2. I bought the chrome Tag2's back in January of 04, and the chrome started to flake after my first ride. I figured I'd just polish them after it starts to really crack and look like shit. Right now you can't tell because of where its at. Sredish (is he still alive?) had the same problem as well.
  3. Yes. I can't remember the name of the company that does it off hand, but they make a 4 cyl. banshee engine. I'm pretty sure you'd shit all over your self the first time that power band hit.
  4. I like hearing about accidents like that. My family tried to get an accident to occur about 8 years ago, but no one wanted to have it hung over their heads in case someone got killed. But about 2 years ago, I found out I go to the gym with 2 people that work at the county jail, one of them directly with the prisoners, and the other is her boss. If it was the same situation now, I'm sure I could get an accident or two to happen.
  5. I saw the math to shit like that 13 years ago in my chemistry classes. I don't give a fuck how much a MOLE is anymore.
  6. If I'm not mistaken the only state in the US that has this (which is kind of a shame its not everywhere) is Florida. If you are convicted of raping a child under the age of 12 you qualify for the death penalty. I just wish they'd fuckin use it more, and lobby to get it everywhere rather than do this petty "Oh its a sickness" horse shit. Make it a law, let everyone know and if they do it, follow through and gut the bastards.
  7. Heres the thing.... A tire with air will weigh more than a tire that is expanded to the same volume as the air filled tire, that is "filled" with a vaccuum. You would have to get both tires to the same volume to make it even. Thats why Zepplins where filled with Hydrogen back in the day. Its the next best thing to a vaccuum, but a vaccuum is really really fucking hard to maintain when you are also trying to maintain a shape. Thats what gives the items bouyancy in air. They displace their weight in air. If a tire displaces the same volume as any other tire, but by some magic force maintains a perfect vaccuum, it will weigh less. Not by much though. All matter has weight whether or not it has a name such as "air" or "hydrogen". If it has mass, it will have a weight, or a more proper term would be inertia.
  8. Friends don't let friends work on their bikes. Let alone with a fucking impact wrench... Anyway, have you tried to find possibly a die set to chase the threads with? Its an off chance, but being I don't personally know how busted up the threads are it might be worth it.
  9. Who's Italy? Is she hot? I got a total of 9 CD's and about $200 in cash and $400 on a credit card. Haven't even got most of the CD's yet because they didn't all get shipped at the same time for whatever reason. I ordered more stuff for my project bike yesterday, just as I will today, and tomorrow........
  10. Clean up my diet a bit more, and add another day to the gym (5 days per week). Build or buy an English Wheel, and learn how to use it. Finish BOTH of my bikes off.
  11. There is a "performance" 4x4 shop here that does stuff like that. At a car show last summer I saw a truck about that big, except the wheels were 24" spinners on some sort of tall narrow tire. It was the 3rd stupidest fucking thing I'd ever seen. They have a few of these abortions on the road, and I have no idea how they get away with it. Theres a Tahoe they ruined for sale up the street from my shop. It has about 12" lift with about a 40" tire with a 22" or bigger rim. So stupid looking it hurts. On this eBay'ed truck it would make a good sand duning truck I'd bet. I've seen pictures of some monster trucks out in the sand, and I'm sure it would be fun as hell for that type of off roading.
  12. Like aguita said. RMATV has great deals on sprockets. If you go steel you won't pay more than about $15 for a front or a rear. On the length of chain question... You have to remember that when you add a tooth to a sprocket, you , in a sense, have to lengthen the chain by the pitch to mantain the same chain tension. This is where your carrier adjustment comes in to play. You only have so much adjustment to use, usually around .750 or so. You might have to mix and match to get exactly what you are after. For instance if you go up 3 or 4 teeth in the rear, you might be better off going down 1 in the front instead, and vice versa.
  13. I haven't got my engine done yet, but I've been quoted 1/2 that much for more work. You might be paying for convenience, but worse case scenario...what if they don't get it done in 3 weeks? Will they give you $1200 off your engine work?
  14. www.forwardair.com They only go terminal to terminal though.
  15. I think it blew off the last time he broke the sound barrier.
  16. Only the competitive bodybuilders do the pose shots. Mine are just random dune pics. I body build for me.
  17. So, by "rest of the ladies" you mean PunkVixen? I don't have a picture of me on this computer anyway. Just close your eyes and pretend.
  18. I liked this part: Bid high and often as this will make someone a fine racer. Ok. Next eBay auction I have I'll tell people to be sure to bid it in $4000 increments and do it every 15 minutes. And I think its a case of someone else ADDING the over bore sizes to the CC's of the engine. .030+.030=.060 60+350=410 What is a cool head jug? Apparently he has them chromed. "Tweaks and custom build parts" must be where the other $29,920 worth of "mods" to that bike are.
  19. And if you let it boil long enough, it will freeze, because boiling is a cooling process.
  20. What drink is that? It looks like a Copper Camel or a Blowjob with whipped cream.
  21. Boiling point for pure water at sea level is 212F. You have to add about 3 degrees F per lb of cap pressure, which they are about 15lbs. 3x15=45. 45+212= 257F at sea level before the cap blows to the overflow. Where I'm at around 4400 feet or so above sea level, with a "normal" barometric pressure of 29.9inMg water will boil at around 205 degrees. Adding anti freeze increases the boiling point as well, so its kind of hit and miss once you start adding stuff, and if you change altitudes ect. IMHO you'd need MORE than 250F if you plan on running antifreeze.
  22. If I'm not mistaken 7075 is FIVE times stronger than 6061. Its also 5x the price if you're buying stock
  23. Yo quiero Taco *KICK* My sister got a couple of those Shih Tzus and those little bitches are like piranahs. Its like getting in a fight with a cactus or something when I pet them.
  24. Sounds like a keeper.
