Some say that he submitted a $20000 expense claim for some gravel

And that if he'd write a letter of condolance he would at least spell your name right.

This is in kilometers, not miles. This distance in miles is 27,777 miles.



Yeah, I missed my "All Twos" as well. But I figure most bikes get at least that far so no biggie. But the rest, yeah, like small milestones on the way to 100k, when the odo rolls over. So the 99,999.9 shot will be most impressive  :icon_mrgreen:

I had them, too before I switched to OEM clip-ons. Now I just have the clock with a stem mount.

Cheaper from their ebay store http://myworld.ebay.com/ebaymotors/clocks4bikes/

They (Ross and Linda) are VERY helpful and great to deal with.

I'll answer this with a no.......... But you could pick up an air horn kit from an auto parts store cheap enough. Main reason I say no is because the air horns that are used on the locomotives I work on require 100 psi to operate.

A buddy of mine has one in his truck, the compressor is a bit large and runs off a separate battery though. Perhaps a Gold Wing or a big Harley?

Its been a while since i've posted, but today I bought my little GS a friend, well they can be friends until the GS is sold.

I got myself an '08 GSXR 750







2002 GS500

Do the coppers in QLD hassle riders on aftermarket pipes and fender eliminators much?  That's a tidy looking Gixxer that could look even better with the bulky stock pipe and mudguard removed.

rayshon

hot damn that 750 is nasty!!!

(Nasty in a good way  :D )

If you visit Glorious with all the other wankers and the cops have a roadworthy blitz, they will do you for both pipes and fender eliminator - and rego roll if you have one of those. No warning, cause blitzes exist to make money not educate.

Solution = don't ride where the blitzes are likely to be. That means, don't do Glorious on the weekend. And if you ride Numinbah from Cunungra, pay real close attention to twirly fingers signs from oncoming riders - or ride behind a large group so they get pulled up and fill the spaces so you can get by without interruption. I prefer to just avoid those areas - where the roads are just as good, crotch rocket guys seldom visit cause it's too far for them, and the traffic is light and scenery and lunch stops nice too  :thumb:

If you are just riding around like normal, it's doubtful you'll get pulled up for pipes or fender chop.
