My 929 is pretty uncomfortable.

I went to the bike shop today and they found out they can't get the regular raptor anymore. They ordered me a pro raptor instead. Same price. $40 otd for a black pro raptor shorty. Pretty sweet. Now I have to go home and install it. It looks like it's at a wierd angle. I hope it reaches over the controls on the left side. I may have to move them inward.
another sign that the old ones been discontinued, i thought so

the cable comes in at an angle, it'll fit over the switches

[Alie]

this is awkward. my arms have gotten so big, my suit jacket is now tight.

i feel like this:

Maybe you wore the squishy padding out of the F4i seat then. u need to take that rr on the street for a few hours of street riding on a hot summer day and we'll see what you say. that seat is defintely filled with cardboard.:twocents:

I have (but dont use) a corbin banana f4i seat. I should start using that or sell it befor f4is become rare

[Niner]

worst seat in the entire universe.
I think the Yamaha's are worse.
i have an 07 remember?


its a cunt hair more comfy than the flat f4i seat. maybe because the bike is brand new and hasnt been stood on, maybe thats just how it is

i have yet to decide whether my zx6 will pass the crotch test. the older gixxers get high crotch ratings.
900RR seat is the greatest ever. I swear it reclined.

have you looked into making a 900 seat fit on an f4i tail?

[Niner]

have you looked into making a 900 seat fit on an f4i tail?

I have never stayed seated on the seat of my f4i for over an hour ever. I want to get a clean 900rr, toss on 919 injection and make a highways killer though.

Without even looking it's way too wide.

With a DRZ400SM:

Almost everyone who leaves the bike completely stock gets aprox 50-55mpg.
Almost everyone who did the 3x3, Jet Kit and full exhaust gets 60-65mpg.


Good enough excuse for me to buy an exhaust and jet kit.:patriot:

That exhaust will still take a while to pay for itself. Especially since it won't leave the garage. Find out what jets are in the jet kit. Jets are cheap, kits are not.

Don't really care about it paying for itself. It's somthing I wanted to get, but now I have an excuse.:thumbsup

Only reason I didn't ride the DRZ much last year was that I just slapped my F4i plate with an expired registration sticker on it. Pretty big gamble to just go ride around.

Find out what jets are in the jet kit. Jets are cheap, kits are not.I learned that lesson the hard way. I thought there was more to it than $30 worth of parts and a k&n but i was wrong

OOooohhh...that's a good one. They are pretty bad.

I think I feel uncomfortable pretty quick because females generally wear tighter jeans with seams located on the highly sensitive "hump" region of our bodies. As a result, if the seat has no give, you really feel the seam rub and irritate the "hump" area. Also, we have smaller asses, in general, so we tend to slide back and forth in the seat.

9 double R? :whoopass Why not swap the subframe and just go bananas!

You might do the first or second leg. After that the contracts will be up. He'll only make that schedule if he drives every available fp.

Speaking of available fps, I think I'm going to drop the extra fuel tank. I always make my deliveries in plenty of time. There's really no need to save the refueling fps.

I repair at every terminal or after an rmf. So that is actually quite often with the routes I've been running.

I repair at every terminal, if it has been a few miles and my truck is slowing down, or if I have a major RMF. If it is just minor and the weather is holding me up anyway, I just finish the trip.

Do you usually pass out when you throw up?

On the plus side, if you feel a little better, it wasn't food poisoning. That shit takes forever to go away. I threw up for 3 hours straight and then every half hour for the rest of the day. Not fun.

usually when i feel a cold sweat coming on, i pass out within 20 seconds of that feeling. i felt that earlier waiting for the elevator.

i'm hoping this is the last time i throw up, but ur right, i could be in for a typoon. I still feel queezy. Should i keep drinking ginger ale or will this just be something else for me to vomit up.

SVO is as expensive as diesel lol

Not if you get it from the cafeteria from work. I meant WVO not SVO.

Do you think it would look stupid if I powdercoated my rear sets, brake pedal, shifter, and rear peg mounts candy blue?

Your truck has had a random mechanical failure beyond normal wear and tear. Your truck is now at 65.6% condition.

Son of a bitch. I'll wait until the terminal in 4 turns. I can only go 49 mph in the weather anyway.

if you run a wvo blend then you still need all the equipment to filter it and warm it

Filtering requires 2 large buckets and a filter. Don't need to warm it if it is over 60 degrees.

[scott3824]

Filtering requires 2 large buckets and a filter. Don't need to warm it if it is over 60 degrees.

it has to be heated up enough to extract any water too ... a lot of guys are recommending an initial filter of about 200 microns then a smaller filter of 5-10 ...


dont forget the used motor oil too lol!

You got until tomorrow night at 1am our time to get there.

The new MKS rides really nice but the rear visability sucks. The test car had the traction control bypassed so it squeeled the tires pretty easily taking off from a stop......or so I heard.

[Zuki750]

I got fucked tonight. 18 miles to go and 2% fuel (7 gallons) left. I would have made it easy. It wouldn't let me drive without refueling first. It's bullshit.

[Zuki750]

I forgot to mention, fuel was $2.95.

My pda won't let me edit.

[scott3824]

You got until tomorrow night at 1am our time to get there.

yeah i dont think thats possible

niner see last line ...

We all know that gas prices are on the rise. The average is now above $3.00. The Energy Information Administration predicts record gasoline prices by spring will be $3.40 or more.

But some analysts say this is not the beginning of a new normal. Oil prices will return to stable levels in three to 15 months, says Tom Kloza of the Oil Price Information Service.

And there is a ceiling on how high gas prices will go. According to Kloza, that ceiling is $3.50-$3.75. And prices will likely go down in the second half of the year.

The downside, diesel fuel - the gas that tankers and truckers use to transport food and raw materials - is likely to stay high for a while. And that means higher costs for consumer goods.

yeah but there are a lot of different steel options as well .... stainless, hi-carbon, etc .... i learned too much about steel while working at twb ... then you have the cutting, are they machined, stamped, laser cut etc .... titanium and the tri-metal design seems to be the new trend also

so far the trip has been amazing! today we were at the animal kingdom for the majority of the day. tonight we watched the night/light parade at the magic kingdom. yesterday we were at the magic kingdom the majority part as well. tomorrow we're doing hollywood studios and epcot and magic kingdom i believe. i'm really amazed at what a great time we're having....for some odd reason my kids are acting like the most well behaved kids in the world too.....kinda shocking.

Spectro Magic! I love that parade at Magic Kingdom. The parade going on now at Disney's Hollywood Studios is brand new. Just started 2 weeks ago. To be honest I liked the old one better (Disney Stars and Motor Cars) but thats okay. What has been your favorite part?

I'm glad you are having such a great time! I told you Disney is the place to be. :thumbsup

Federal taxes are fucking with my emotions this year. Went from a return of $1400 to oweing $3500, to getting a retrun of $3400. I'm glad I'm getting the larger amount of course, but this puts me within striking distance of having a bunch of shit paid off by July without having to sell anything.

5 til drive tiem

[Niner]

So my truck started exibiting the same symptoms that it did before with the brakes. I took off the caliper, pad bracket and pads. The pads were in there pretty tight so I gound the ears down on them and scuffed the brake material surface. Hopefully that was the cause. I'm going to pull all 4 corners off the truck this weekend, inspect and do the same if needed. I guess grinding down the ears on the brakes so they can move freely is good for 1-2 MPG. HSould take about 3 hours total, but I ain't got shit else to do for 4 days.

[Niner]

Unless I get called in to work.:censored If I do get called in after I am done with that issue and taking over for the 2010 program for a week, I'm going to remind my boss that my 5 year service date is in a month, that I have been full time for 3.5 years and inform him what the market rate REALLY is for my position.
