Keystone State Thread

Anyone here running 5100s @ 0 w/ the 885's on a dbl cab? If so, how does it ride?
My front 5100s w/ stock springs are @ 1.75 and I don't really want the truck any stiffer. Can't afford full OME though either, like $1k total...

 

Sooooo....Is it for sale?

 

bike has about 17k on it. Valves have not been checked. It's naked except for a lower "chin" fairing. Rear fender eliminator, yosh r3 slip on that I shortened up and painted black. The PO had it jetted. I tried to open up the hole in the airfilter so it could suck more air but that backfired. Dam carburetor. Now every so often it will "sneeze" and miss. Battery is dead. It died 100% on me last year at the last mile of a ride last year. I don't have any pics atm.

 

The longer I live here the more I find myself loving your state! I found this local for a steal, Little TLC then headed for my dads Tacoma!

 

Okay woodsmen, I have a query. What creature does this belong to?

EDIT: I suspect that it is a carnivore.

 

looks like deer pellets to me.

 

Definitely looks like deer scat to me.

 

Porcupine

 

Dirt Pig

 

A creature with edible flesh made those droppings.

 

More background on the scat: I looked out this morning to see one of the koi from my garden pond laying on the ground next to the water, covered in dirt and mulch. The fish is 18" long and weighs 3 or 4 pounds. Amazingly its gills were still moving so it went back in the water; we'll see whether it survives I guess. It's got damage.

My two other large koi were gone altogether. There were little bits of fish scattered on the bottom of the pond, scales and fins.

I'd normally think heron, and one of those did find our pond last year and take some smaller fish. But from what I've seen of them they just slide the fish down whole, and the missing fish are bigger than I'd expect a heron to take like that. So I'm leaning towards something four legged. I saw that scat near the scene of the event. Looks like deer to me too, and we do have plenty of them. Plus pellets are usually herbivore scat. But I thought I'd give it a go amongst folks with more experience than me.

 

Hairy Bandit

 

The description of the crime scene sounds like one of those although they don't leave pellets. Doesn't mean the pellets are evidence of the crime.

 

Maybe he's constipated?

 

What about a Fisher?

 

Also crossed my mind but doesn't poop pellets. There is a mystery afoot, Watson!

 

Maybe a hybrid carnivorous beaver,..

The Scat is from a Goat. Trust me , I have highly regarded credentials from various institutions across the globe concerning Scat , aka feces.
Correct pronunciation would be ( Feck-Es )
Now , reading these words typed by one of the smartest people you will ever come across in a forum , and In my opinion ( which I value very highly ) to the best of my knowledge the goat feces were deposited by a pet goat being fucked by a jealous neighbor while eating your Koi !
He was pacifying his jealous inhibitions by performing this dastardly act in your back yard whilst you were asleep. I suspect it won't happen again , as his jealous thirst has been mitigated by your anguish. The fish on the ground , was left behind as he had to make quick exit when the goat decided enough was enough , turned and bit his little farm animal probe.
Get some nice new Koi and rest peacefully. It's all over now.

 

Or that..^^

 

Oly chit!
