    You would not believe the amount of trouble one can get into for trying to buy a Chinese hummer! ohmy.gif

    How do you know? rolleyes.gif

    Damn, that took long enough for a response from somebody. :huh:

    Knew you would appreciate it Copey.

  2. O-ring in the head gone bad..........my 2 cents.

    Start storing bike in house, temperature controlled environment your bike will thank you................other humans in the house will hate you.

    But hey fair trade as far as I'm concerned. :)

    what difference does it make having fat bars instead of the 7/8 ones, apart from the cross brace??????

    I honestly cannot think of one.

    basically replacement bars are close to same price whether they are FAT or 7/8".......right???

    I got me beer and am waiting to watch my balls drop in New York!

    And here was me thinking you were older than that rotfl.gif

    Nevermind that Tony, the fact that Copey's in Texas and his balls are in New York is mildly disturbing.

    Well, Copey is from Texas and EVERYTHING is BIGGER in Texas, and that sky scraper in New York is the only place he could find that would store them...........His wife's purse was just too small.

    Just trying to help ya out Cope.... B)

  8. She is mighty rounded at the end for sure.

    Was a little strapped for cash as I think this last rear has been on for 3 yrs.

    Like I said I am mighty cheap.

    But planning on new rear and front this year!!!!!!!! B)

  9. I generally run Dunlops, and get 2 years out of a rear and god only knows how many years out of a front.

    This is not because I don't ride very often, it's just that I am very cheap and run my rear one direction the first year and then flip it for the second year. (I do notice a bit of loss of traction toward the end of the season though.)

  10. My opinion:

    Stall with both feet up and restart is ok. (basically balanced on tires and nothing else, is very hard to do and very few will be able to do it so many take 5's)

    Stall and foot touches ground = 5

    Stall with support =5

    But I am not so adamant that if the rule was basically stall = 5 I can live with that. Most often I take a 5 if I stall anyways.

    Also,

    Stop and balance = no penalty

    Stop and foot = 5 (you are now just as effective as a kickstand and a kickstand does not require you to be in control)

    I agree with Ishy that the rules are being made lenient so that riders can make more mistakes and not incur a 5, because a 5 is really hard on the ego. Well get used to it!!! Trials is about CONTROL not how high you can jump or fast you can go.

    Sorry got a little uppity there.
