    The seat on that blonde looks custom made for a guy with short legs. I know someone who would most likely be interested if you were to decide to part with it.

    About two days ago My friends wife was in the car with her two small children. For some reason she went through a stop sign at a country road intersection and got t-boned. Sadly though the accident was her fault the three of them were rushed to the hospital. His wife and small son were released yesterday but their small daughter remains in the hospital with severe brain trauma and internal head bleeding. She has been rushed moved from the kitchener Hospital to a speacial unit in london. Their little girl could certianly use all the prayer and good will hopes that she can get. I also believe the mother, who obviously is full of regret and tormented by her action and bad judgment, could use some spiritual and moral support as well. They are a very close knit and loving family.

    Source: Mindlesscrap One theory: there used to be a bounty on rat's heads, and you could turn them in to the county office for a nickel a piece. This would make a rats bottom half worthless, thus "I don't give a rat's ass" would be appropriate.

    We do this all the time on big rigs. Ist we incease spring capacity. then we increase tire and wheel size together we are able to apply for a complience sticker showing a higher gvwr. There are however some restrictions as to how far you can go. This is based on axle size and wheel bearing size, they do have limitations as to how far you can go oversize.

    saw a similiar thing a couple weeks back. The bicycle was disassembled into three sections and secured in a special mount attached to the bike over the pass seat and rear fender area.

    I must make a correction on the post below, it was a $200 increase over two years. last years rate was $812.00 ....Still way too D----- much though $900 for bare minimum insurance ---give me break PS this is not socialism -- we don't have that here in Canada ----it is corporate RIP OFF.

    Too Plug or not too plug, is too general of a term. Plugs are different as day and night. And to be quite honest the only plug I would trust is this one http://www.techtirerepairs.com/Catalog/ItemList.aspx?SalesSubGroup=MR030&family=MR&salesGroup=MR03 I have been using these for over twenty years in fleet applications and would not trust anything else. If a complete inside/out repair is required this is the way to go http://www.techtirerepairs.com/Catalog/ItemList.aspx?SalesSubGroup=MR050&family=MR&salesGroup=MR05

    Just recieved my insurance renewal. Hard to believe They INCREASED it $200.00 over last years to $900.00 for the year. This is for $1,000,000.00 public liability ONLY .(No collision. No personal Injury. No loss). How in the world can they justify such legalized highway ROBBERY. And this is through RIDERS PLUS who are supposed to be motorcycle friendly. I am convinced that there is a secret agenda by the Government of Canada and the Insurance Companey's to rid the world of Motorcycles. Am I ticked off .....you bet I am. I think its long past due that All Motorcyclists launch a MAJOR PROTEST.

    Sorry to hear you had to loose your Dad. Hope the surviving family is holding up OK
  19. saddlebum
    As everyone else has already said, I am glad you are OK. A bruise or two is much better than what could have been.

    Definitly a much wiser move. I wasn't really thinking open brushes at the time. Guess I just got lucky

    Thats what I did a couple years ago. I taped the nozzle close to the entrance and once in awhile a little shot of wasp spray to be sucked in as well. by the end of about four hours I had an inch and half of dead wasps. The interesting thing was the more that got sucked in the more that returned to the hive to help (I think they are telepathic) of course they got sucked in too. PS that was also the end of the hive. Final touch was a bit of non expanding spray foam to seal the holes.

    I read that too but at the time I felt it much safer, to just cut the nylon rings and leave the metal tubes in place, popping the diaphrams over the lip. worked very well that way, with much less fuss.
