seeking

went to the shop to pick my bike up tonight (been getting hard tailed). where the fuck do i begin?... get there and immediately notice the belt is rubbing against the battery box. dude pulls out a grinder, in the dark, in the parking lot, and starts cutting away at it. i have to keep pointing out that there are sharp points. he hits the fucking belt. ugh. finally loosens the axle and drops the belt, moves the battery, cleans it up ok, but its still pretty close. he swears its fine. takes it for a test run. half way around the block shreds the brand new belt. wtf. thing was such a fucking jack job, i cant even believe a shop is putting their name on it. slag on everything. 5 minutes with a flap disc would have fixed it all, but nope. fender doesnt even come fucking close to lining up straight. it's almost touching one side of the tire, with an inch and a half on the other side. WTF? how do you not notice that? sissy bar mounting system is so shitty looking, i cant even believe they thought it might fly. fender is mounted under the seat with bungs NH and cotter pins. only one pin was installed, the other popped out on the first ride. rear exhaust was only held on by one bolt. seat wobbles because the mount is so shitty. also, it's not stretched as i asked for. seat angle almost makes you slide off. all my eletrical shit was just ziptied under the seat. fucking fuses rubbing against the jugs?! are you kidding? dude PROMISED me he'd have a box or some kind of solution for it. yeah right. gotta go up and have a talk with the owner tomorrow. although the owner probably isnt much better. most the stuff thats wrong i can fix myself with my harbour freight grinder, but if i wanted to have to do that, i wouldnt have taken it to a shop in the first place. ugh. anyway, just wanted to complain.

white knuck? nuts.

SOUP, you've wrecked 27 bikes. rear brakes; yeah or nay? it was weird. i honestly didnt even realize i'd stomped down on it. it all happened so fast. all i knew is that i was sliding sideways and i couldnt figure out why.

almost laid the bike down today. cars stopped super short in front of me. locked up the rear, sliding sideways for a long time.... took me a second to remember to let up with my foot. was almost ugly. thats all.

um, he was making a joke too.

im moving very shortly, so heat isnt about to be an issue at all. ive seen those modular helmets. pretty nice. someday ill get one. just got a daytona 3/4. if not for getting the wrong size, shit would have been awesome. it's the smallest DOT helmet you can get. look em up if you havent before. none of that martian shit like with the bell (i bought one and immediately returned it as well).

ive got a full face that fits good. surprisingly, that was pretty easy. getting a 3/4 that doesnt make me look like im about to head into space is hard as shit. im almost there.

you are grossly overestimating the shops down here. you're also over simplifying the 'fitting' process. one day i tried on 4 different style of helmets from the same company. depending on the model, i needed anywhere from a small to a large. the helmet i just got today, according to the manufacturers measurements, should be a size too small. it's a size too big. the helmet i got a couple days ago should have fit perfect, but is too small. no one in the city carries a normal 3/4 helmet of any brand, that doesnt have ed hardy on it. i suppose if all i wanted some some dinky yamika looking brain bucket it would easy, but id like something actually offers a little bit of protection.

ordering helmets online is the most annoying shit ever. so far ive ordered 4. none have fit me properly the first time. shit is gay.

are there a lot of disposable loading ramps? get a trailer.

i really liked a couple of the vansons i tried on, but unless you can try out a few different brands, id be careful. every single one i tried fit different. ended up going with a fox creek. shit is great, but even thugh its vented, its a little warm for the southern heat.

really jer, you're going for 1% status now a days? ive been riding in just t shirt and jeans last couple days. i feel a little bad about it, but at the same time, its so nice, i cant help it. plus, 85 degrees is pretty warm in a leather when you're just riding around town, spending more time at lights than moving.

$18 dollars worth of faggots. no offense, but mad street bike dudes are wicked homos.

i cant tell shit from those sucky ass flics. looks like he just strutted the rear, could be wrong. $1950 is way high. you can get really nice cb750's for less than that. agree that a 450 will be too small for highway. even my 883 feels pretty sketchy above 65. it can pull it, but wind bobs you around hard. soup, im drawing up plans for this shit as we speak. i think you'll be stoked. going a little fancy. actually gonna have a 'paint job'. with a 'scheme'. there may be some lace. thinking about running two diff fenders, with two diff mounting systems, you know, just to keep things fresh. also drawing up new exhaust plans. running remote oil filter. high on ambien.

trips, dude... did you just learn how to ride? is this your first bike?

fangs you need to be more specific. what do they want for it? what kind of bike? etc.

nice

i cant even tell what the fuck it is. i wanna say its a vulcan, but the drum is throwing me. i dont think its a hardtail, i think thats soft.

soup, decided fuck it, im doing the hardtail. dropped a $500 deposit today. dude claims he can do the whole thing out the door for a grand. i dont believe him, but we'll see. claimed if i did the 1200 kit, and the hardtail, he could do it for $1500. if thats real talk, im probably gonna do that also. thats all.

im paying $140 a year with progressive. plus, i wanna bang the girl from the commercial.

as i said, i was drunk last night. i dont know. i havent decided about that. ive got the money to hard tail it, but things are a little uncertain for me lately, so im trying to stack my shit for a while.

going 80 isnt much fun to me. getting up to 80 is. was drunk last night and almost bought some new shocks, but i held off at the last second. cant decide between licks or burlys. prolly burly.

um. what kind of bike? fuck that faggoty chrome thing up there.

PM'S GOD DAMNIT. none of us give a shit about your pissing match.
