Motorcycles BS Thread 2.0

You can’t ride either half the year. I gots to save up now and pay other bills

 

heck you might hate the thing and want to trade it in sooner than later for something else

I say first just get the bike and ride the bike and at least get the first oil change out of the way before changing any parts

 

Me too. I don't have cable, internet, netflix, Amazon... or anything that requires monthly payment (except for my new to me truck and for mortgage). All funds go to Rob's Used Harley Parts (right, @fatfurious2 ?), gas and guns.

I need to get to work on the bike. Higher bars, forward controls and new back fender are at the top of the list. Bought a flared OEM fender off of some 2000 Sportster variation (can't remember which one) that doesn't require any additional cutting or fabrication but now I need to work out brake and turn lights. I wanted to do a hardtail for awhile but I have kinda abandoned that idea for the time being.

 

I was looking for bike parts on the "motorcycle parts" section of craigslist and saw an ad for used bike parts. I clicked on it, and the sign said Rob's Used Harley Parts. Since @LocoLocal bike is consisted of used parts from ebay, I thought it was fitting to name his "build".

I keep asking you to ride, but youre always busy

 

My schedule has opened up a bit just as the weather has been reminded that it's February in the Mid-Atlantic. Looks like the weather won't meet your standards for another two weeks!

 

ahh yea, I still stand by my over 60 degrees to ride.

Also as soon as it hits 70, Im taking a day off just to ride all day

 

Sunday afternoon I’m hoping to go ride, forecast to be above 50° from 11-5. Just installed a set of bar risers to move them up and back 1” and am expecting a resonator delete pipe tomorrow to get rid of the big ugly box under the swing arm. Should make the bike sound better too.

 

If I hate it I won’t be getting another bike period lol. I’m not changing anything immediately. It’ll be a month or two of riding first. But a seat and fairing are high on my list

 

What about cell phone service? Or are you doing it the old school of using a digital camera and library Internet? lol

 

dude you should be banned for this thought... oh. my. god. that is very offensive.

 

I do have a cell phone! Luckily my work pays for it. I do surf the web on my phone at home but anything else is done on my PC at work - outside of work hours of course.

 

that is the opposite for me. Work has been paying me to surf the web - aka lots of downtime at my job . I like it, and I get the bills paid, so it will do for now.

 

I have no interest in a sport bike. I guess I would maybe consider an enduro. But I don’t typically buy expensive things unless I know I’m going to like it.

 

try winning some things

 

i couldnt imagine life without bikes

i would sell my cars before selling my bikes

though that choice would really fecking suck lol

 

I partially agree.. Would still need a car though. Cant imagine selling my truck

 

I don’t win things ever. My ex did. All the fucking time.

>In Reno visiting her friends
>in casino. She goes “I’m feeling lucky”
>wins $20 on her first slot machine pull

this shit happened all the time.

 

your luck will change soon

 

im getting my bike Friday. I’ll be plenty happy soon as it shows up. That’ll be my luck used
