"I think all sorts of people get frustrated with all sorts of businesses," said Ed Postawko, chief warrant officer in the Circuit Attorney's Office. "The solution is to don't patronize that business, it's not to break the law. ... Two wrongs don't make a right." So did he admit that the business was in the wrong? Hmm.

Wow, One person seen that as sarcasm. These waters are so over fished, there is barely a place to sit. It seems everybody is on the edge.

One of the worse things you can do is to have a bike and let it sit around and not ride it. Just like a car and house, if you don't drive them or live in them they fall to shit. I'd say he had some bad gas in his bike, possibly left over from practicing for the sx season...

I like how the word retirement gets thrown around. I took a year off and enjoyed life at 22. Does that mean I was retired? Do you guys really think that JS is never ever going to race an outdoor national again? I kinda give him kudos on the fact that he anounced his schedule almost a year ago and...

Everybody is brand bias, myself included. Its human nature. I for one am a Kawi fan and have prefered them almost always against any of the other brands year to year since the late 80's. I have an 07 KX250 but have only ridden it about 10 or 15 min. to break it in prior to having surgery. My impressions...

I had a friend with an 2006 that did the same thing. We found that the spring steel spring on the Hot Start broke. It is an easy check. Look in your manual but it is on the shifter side of the motor under a cover toward the back of the head. Two bolts hold it under the cover and...

I never had much trouble with mine but I did also warp the head. Same as you I think I did it with the wrench. 12 year olds and wrenches seem to have that effect. I had it shaved and it turned out to be a blessing in the long run. One of my favorite bikes. To hell and back...

That is a pretty good assessment if you ask me but it somewhat goes down to preference rather than performance. I for one have and 04' and I like it better than the 05 and 06. I have an 07 that is waiting for me to be healthy in just a few more weeks and I can't wait. I'll know...

Suzuki's 86 RM 80: No more Mr. nice guy. That is sweet. My 86 RM 80 was a fire breather. I was and still am pissed that I had to move up to big bikes. Nothing beats being a kid and racing an 80.

I probably do 10 pork butts a year on the grill but sometimes you just want something a little simpler, a little less time consuming. Kinda like a get home at 8 and you have company, lets sit on the deck and eat some food, kick on the outdoor speakers and drink some beer kinda thing. Take a spiral ham...

The Sidewinder product used to kick ass. Even though they were a wider and heavier chain, I loved the effect that had on a 125. I could honestly tighten my chain only about twice a month. After several years of buying Renthal because of package deal pricing, I thought I'd buy me another set of Sidewinders. Just for old times...

I bet we would know who the "unidentified hucking" rider was if he had decent numbers on his side panels. Just saying. 210 frames per second and you still can't read it.

Thanks Scottie. Hopefully I don't wind up in that situation again but still its fun to go back the next day and look at the results a little better, lap times ect. Lets face it. MXerDW puts out the best compilation of links, anywhere.

Thanks MXerDW. Would it be possible to leave these as stickies at least a day after the race. I didn't get to catch any of the action yesterday and was in search of this thread for all of the results links. I ended up finding this on the 3rd page. I think it still has relevance a day or 2...

6/28/2009 9:14am
First step is contact a patent attorney and set up a meeting. Have them set you up with the disclosure documents and have them fill them out. They will be able to put in a little extra info than you will be able to that might pay off. They are there to ensure you the best protection possible. That gives...

If you are used to an R6 type power you will have no problem with a yz450. They are by far the most tame of all the 450's and easy to ride. 2 stroke 250 power is way more explosive.
