    15 sec of sure hell..

    Thanks all for the kind words; my wife and co- workers think I should have a camera on me 24/7. I know a lot of people have things happening to them periodically but God found a person to pick on. After the first fifty or so stings I could hardly feel them. Thanks again, I though that was too...

    15 sec of sure hell..

    As you know I went home yesterday to give my broken toe a little relief. I sat in my porch with the cool air blowing around me, my feet up on the footstool watching the TV. All was great, but the TV would cut in and out because of a branch that was blowing in front of the satellite dish ( my...

    Do you wash

    Wash?? Setting at 42 K on the speedometer it's been washed in the rain but otherwise no. It has had several micro fiber cloths dirtied up but wash!!. My ol sea daddy says you only use Pledge, that’s right Pledge the wood polish. It works great with no waxy buildup and with the anti static cling...

    Dyno Drag what a gas

    They still gave him the trophy his et was the quickest. The fastest of the day was the 11.2 my counter had. The big difference was he had a HD, still had a great time though. The crowd was dressed in the normal HD black, so the rice burner was looked down on little. When the lights turned from...

    Shifting at peak torque?

    Hay I-pod, I do appreciate the input on shifting, but (Err) is that like some thing you would say to a blond? To me the tilde is used a ASKI code or in digital electronics as a NOT. You motor heads love to talk. Than you bring up Helmholtz resonance thing, I though that the only thing you...

    Shifting at peak torque?

    What? ~250 What! This is a Dyno drag, they strap two bikes down and for $20.00 you get three runs. I am NOT going to beat on my bike. I have way to much fun riding a normal pace with normal people. This is just for fun at an A.B.A.T.E. rally. When the HD riders get together at the tavern it...

    Shifting at peak torque?

    Thanks for the info. This would be a Dyno drag, every thing is straped in place. Am to fat and feel to old to do anything like what your doing. This would be a gentlemen’s drag just to see what happens, there's no nitrous being used on his part.

    Shifting at peak torque?

    If you were to do a hypothetical dyno drag against a pro stock Harley, at what RPM would you likely shift at? I wouldn’t know I have never or would ever do such a thing. But if you were to do such a thing, how would you start off the line. Dump the clutch at say 4 grand? Or would take it a...

    New shelf

    Installed my newly received laser cut shelf; this is a very nice piece of workmanship. No rattles, no chips no run. I have 40K on my 04 right now the next 40K is going to be nothing but better with this shelf and the junk I have on. You can check it out by giving Scott a call @(909) 799-0088...

    Valentine One

    Was thinking of taking the step to get a Valentine One. Seems to be the favorite around here. I like the review of it and the following it recieves from members and such. The question I have is where did most of you get yours? So where did you get your unbiased opinion?? I have looked at a lot...

    My Gazelle like reflexes and luck saved my hide.

    Was going to trap shooting, had my trap gun strapped to the back it was a very hot night 90 deg +. The sweat was forming on my body parts. I had me feet setting on my new forward foot pegs all was well, until I made an equipment adjustment on my body. One hand on the wheel and one on the body...

    The power of....Velcro!

    Have you ever used VHB double sided tape? (Very high bond) I call it my two ton tape. I had it on for months now and it holds in any temp or rain. If you like to remove it you need to stick some thing in between and lift it off or run a fine wire through there. Left over glue came off with soap...
