    I bought the set a THIS link and cannot complain about them. They do cost a lot, but they are forged.....

    WOW! ya, I think that I will just keep borrowing the snap on set from my buddy who owns the local Good Year store.

    Possibly my BEST addition to the scoot

    I already have the dual stebel horns. The strobe lights would be even better yet. Then I wouldn't have to rely upon my reaction time AND theirs to avoid being hit. What is your set up? I'd like to put some on my 89.

    I have probably put over 100,000 miles on my 83 with strobe lights mounted in the headlight bucket. In fact, I have two sets, one not as bright I run at night and the brighter ones during the day. These are like the ones installed in the NASCAR pacecar lights. I have the strobe frequency set slower so it does not look like an emergency vehicle. So far, I have only had one cop take issue with the headlight setup and he stopped me just to tell me they are technically illegal. Come to fine out, he has two crotch rockets. I did get pulled over by a Tennessee State trooper at about 1am coming back from the Honda Hoot because at that time I had strobes mounted inside my brake light lens and he told me that I could not have them behind a colored lens. I now have them in the lights in my upper trunk lightbar. The lens have faded clear, but the LED bulbs I also have in them are red.

    Once again, I needed info on something to fix the bike. This time it was rust on the new mufflers I installed 1-2 years ago. I found out the wonderful properties of white vinegar and elbow grease. Now if I didn't research that here, where would I have found the answer so easily. Its stuff like that, the comradeship and so much more that make the price more than worth it.

    It makes you wonder where we've gone wrong here in America. The first thing that you see here in the aftermath of a disaster are people looting. Then there are others who try to get rich quickly by price gouging the victims. You have to admire a society who can go through a disaster of this magnitude the way the Japanese people are doing. I hope that they can get their lives back to a liveable order soon. God bless and help these unfortunate people.

     

    USA is a big country and there are different reactions to disaster in different areas. We have 100 or 500 year floods about every 15 years in the upper Mississippi area like when 400 city blocks of Cedar Rapids were flooded in 2008. Very little misbehavior is displayed. People just come together and do what they need to do. Please don't condemn the entire USA because of what a few people in a few areas of the country do. Unfortunately, it is likely that we will see soon how folks in Northern California will deal with earthquakes and giant waves.

    Ya know, by the WBC logic the entire country of Japan must be in the midst of a major condemnation by God. In truth, I don't know what the Japanese thoughts are toward humanity's sexual orientation. I know they need our prayers. And btw, so do the members of the WBC. So...Please God, bless Japan and the WBC.

    I'm not sure if she is a good dog or a bad dog

    Great Dog! I am encouraged that your tamed "not a trained Killer" pet was able to recognize an intruder and take action. My black lab has shown no sign of aggression ever but maybe he would if there was a threat. So far if a stranger enters our house, even when we are not there, he rolls over, grins, drools, and wants his nads scratched. Ya, that really scares em off.

    Wow. If they put that technology in a motorcycle, we wouldn't need a kick stand. No more parking lot tip-overs. Hey, and my wife doesn't like it when we lean going around corners. That would take care of that too. No more leaning into the corners.

     

    Ahh!! bad idea. Never mind

    What do I tell my son??

    I am a counselor and you have gotten some excellent advice so far on this thread. I would recommend that you find a counselor or psychologist for yourself and your kids. School counselors are okay for a school setting but typically don't have the clinical skills to effectively deal with this type of situation. With your counselors advice tell mom that you are concerned for the kids and invite her to be part of counseling as well. Have patience. Good Luck

    Cletus and Billy Bob

    in Jokes and Humor

    Posted

    Cletus is passing by Billy Bob's hay barn one day when, through a
    gap in
    the door, he sees Billy Bob doing a slow and sensual striptease in
    front of
    an old green John Deere.

     

    Buttocks clenched, he performs a slow pirouette, and gently slides

    off first the right strap of his overalls, followed by the left. He
    then hunches
    his shoulders forward and in a classic striptease move, lets
    his overalls
    fall down to his hips, revealing a torn and frayed plaid shirt.
    Then
    , grabbing both sides of his shirt, he rips it apart to reveal
    his stained T
    -shirt underneath. With a final flourish, he tears the T-shirt
    from his
    body, and hurls his baseball cap onto a pile of hay.

     

    Having seen enough, Cletus rushes in and says, "What the heck're
    ya doing
    , Billy Bob?"

     

    "Good Lord, Cletus, ya scared the bejeezers out of me," says an

    obviously embarrassed Billy Bob.

     

    "But me 'n the Ol' Lady been havin trouble lately in the bedroom

    dee-partment, and the therapist suggested I do something sexy to

    a tractor."
