    That's actually a cool idea. In South Africa they have flamethrowers mounted to the rocker panels in case of car jacking (not commonly or inexpensively of course). Zapping might be a little more humane.

    You sure? even CNN has stories about it, and they're fairly reputable.

    Plate wouldn't fit over hidden hitch with center latch for swing outs on my @RelentlessFab bumper so had to add an illuminated license plate frame to the cab carrier to be legal again.

    This is the one I got. It's machined aluminum and I was impressed with the quality. I looked at some of the plastic ones but they were all chromed and I wasn't impressed.

    Ordered a new pair of CV axles from CVJ Axles today. Opted for the inner boot upgrade and plan to keep the factory axles as emergency spares. For the curious their core return is $95.00 each if you return your factory set.

    Check my build thread...too much to list.
    This just reminds me that I need to bug my uncle about the possible tool.

    You just reminded me to check with @MO Tacoma to see if he's made any progress in his search.

    The 500s are great bikes. Quite a few people I ride with own or have owned one.

    I rode the 350 already and really dug it. I want to check one out but first I want to get all the house upgrade cash accounted for. I don't plan on doing the supermotard conversion though.
