    I know. I do agree with power restrictions to a limit. Not like theirs, but to an extent. Anyways. Got my summer vacation request approved. Forum I'm on is having a gathering. Should be fun! 3 days at a campground in mid august. Supposedly some really good twisties in the area. Plus, I get to...

    You'll probably use something along the lines of a Rebel 250. Those are a really common choice. And it's a parking lot class. So I wouldn't base it off that. For me, it wasn't hard. I had no choice. Ninja was 40 a month for ins, my firebird was 320. It's kinda something you have to just do. I...

    Id disagree. I actually had started writing about how id recommend a ninja 300, then erased it to see what she was interested in before. I like them. It's funny you mention Americans are scared of them when we're one of the ones that don't have license restrictions, like most of Europe. ;) The...

    Very long story but she's not my gf. Hahhawe've been seeing each other for a year this month but never been official. Like I said. Long story. Hahaha Anyways, point of actual relevance. That's what I said too. I started off wearing everything, including Kevlar jeans and A* boots. Gradually lost...

    I need a new phone, too. Finally cracked my iPhone 4. I don't care enough to fix it. For future reference, replacing a screen is extremely easy to do buy yourself. Costs like 20 for parts. And parts are finally coming in :D got my clutch perch, mirrors, stator cover in. I somehow forgot to...

    Alright. I reloaded the dress photos and it came up a different color. Originally, white/ gold, then blue/black, then white/ gold. It just switches every time you open the page.

    I've moved about 5 times in the past year, so I've had to deal with riding from rural areas, suburbs and riding in central phoenix. City riding isn't that bad. Sitting in 110 degrees with an exhaust that let off right under my seat in stand still traffic... That was the only time it bothered...

    I bought a 2013 triumph street triple the day after Christmas this year. Overstock model so they had it marked down.

    Well. I bought my first big boy car today. 2000 Infiniti g20t, sr20de with a 5 speed. 160k miles, clutch replaced last month, newish tires, rides pretty great. Bose system already installed and working ac. I forgot how nice those two things are after a year of motorcycles only. My girly is...

    Started off in a soft brace, 2 weeks later was casted. Surgical repair 3 days later, then casted for 2 more weeks. Then a new brace that limits thumb movement. I'm not entirely sure how my follow up is going to work. My hip surgeon actually is a col that does processing for MEPS and were trying...

    See? It'd be nice if I was told this by my surgeon. He hasn't even seen me again since my surgery. Every time I go in, he has his MA ask the questions, relay it to him, then has the MA tell me. One occasion I had a PA, who could at least tell me most of the stuff. All they told me to do was...

    This guy took a walk today. 6 months before I can walk unassisted has turned into 6 weeks. Did a mile today before I called it quits. Don't even have a horrible limp. My 6:16 mile turned into about 20 minutes though Im disappointed that the scaphoid fx is taking so damned long though. Still...

    Welp, hip apparently looks good. Finally got a new set of x rays. Originally was told 12 weeks for pt, he saw the x ray's today and cleared me to start now (6 weeks post op). Apparently avascular necrosis is still worrisome so I have about 2 years that I'll need to keep seeing him, but early...

    I used H&R block. It was super easy, free federal return, 10 bucks for state. Walks you through everything.

    Normally it's just a variation of the brake compound. Cheapest are organic (rubber), semi metallic are normally next. A little better braking distance. Also have a longer life but they wear the rotors more than organic, so it's a wash. And then ceramic. Which are hellishly expensive. About the...
