    Helmet painting

    Heh heh... as long as I stay out of the jungle, I guess. :) Maybe I'll do an asphalt one with a double yellow stripe down the center... The bengal tiger one has the white break fade rise up at the back of the helmet. My roomie suggested that this must be the tiger's ass, and I should...

    Starcomm1 Advance Bluetooth Module Question

    I had problems with the mike pairing the 1st and 2nd gen iPhone... no one could hear me speak. I already had an iPod hardwired to the starcom, so never got around to trying A2DP bluetooth after the update.

    Helmet painting

    At the risk of turning this into advertising... $255 for a semi-auto rifle and that 4-color scheme. I expect I could work out some forum discounts, though. :) Check the website for a list of colors, camo schemes, and prices. My FAL stripped for painting (normally, you don't need to do this...

    Helmet painting

    Haven't polished the Fulmer yet... still mulling over the best option. DuraCoat is a two-part resin plus hardener that was designed for firearms; it's also a slow cure resin... it's usable within 24 hours, but doesn't achieve its full hardness for 4 weeks. It's also a thin coat, which means you...

    Helmet painting

    A buddy of mine and I run a side-business duracoating guns. While doing up my FN-FAL in a Vietnam tigerstripe pattern, I started wondering what else I could paint... sort of like having a hammer, you start looking for nails to pound in whether they need them or not. I called the company that...

    Hey Mac users!!!!

    If rebooting into windows doesn't bother you, just use bootcamp- it's built in. If you decide later you don't want to keep booting back and forth, you can install VMWare and it'll use your bootcamp partition. Haven't used parallels, but VMWare did fine for the few applications I had to have.

    Suches June 6, 2009 pix

    Check my sig line... Don't get a lot of takers, but occasionally it pays for my gas up there.

    Suches June 6, 2009 pix

    Rode the Suches Loop yesterday and drug the camera with me... it's becoming obvious that the Sigma 50-500 lens doesn't autofocus fast enough for this type of shooting; but I can't afford new glass right now so it'll have to do. Dammit, I can't shake that scooter! Oh... that's...

    Need a web page provider

    Second that. It may have more features than you'll really need; but very good service for the last couple of years.

    BIG video camera mounts

    I've used a Sony DCR-HC20 DV camcorder on a Ram ball mount on the handlebars with good success in the past. The Sony's image stabilization does a good job and smoothing out any vibrations from the bike. But after editing HD footage from a Sony V1U, I'd like to film any future bike footage in HD...

    Speeding

    I hate downgrading code on the way to a call; i.e., starting off lights and siren to something that's serious and then getting told never mind... for that exact reason. I know as soon as I turn off the lights and pull off someone's thinking "Oh, late to lunch, huh?"

    Front tire worn out and rear still got some life. WOW

    Happened with the stock BT021's on mine... 4000 out of the front, 7500 rear. We'll see how the Roadsmart's do...

    Robotic Concubines

    Haven't even read the thread; but I'm in just based on the title. Sign me up! ...unless she's got crotch rust, or herpes or something. ... hell, even then.

    Will an off-duty sheriff ticket me if I ride with him?

    This was last October; but I'm up there whenever I can on weekends.

    Will an off-duty sheriff ticket me if I ride with him?

    Ask the group that went to the 2008 N. Ga. weekend at Suches... :lol:

    Highest I've got for a Macbook Pro is 126 on the GPU.

    AMA Pro Tire Marshalls Needed

    Some cameraphone pics from Saturday...

    Yes, I have YES...

    Yeah, I'm giving it a bit and then will check with Yamaha.

    Yes, I have YES...

    I purchased the YES warranty from the dealer when I bought the bike 11 months ago... still have the little yellow sheet of paper showing where I initialed everything, how much it was a month, etc. etc. So I was a little surprised when I got a brochure in the mail a week ago from Yamaha, pointing...

    My first scratch on my '08

    Also depends on the boot design, I think... before I started wearing the Alpinestars I've got now, I never noticed it; but with them (especially if I have pants legs tucked into the boots), the velcro flap that covers the side zipper rubs the panels. But since I'm one o' them...
