yeah, the guy who cuts the frame on the ZX10 is Shervin, who is different than the guy who abortions the exhaust pipe on the 250.  But, they both own Kawasakis.
The motorcycle is no longer the hobby, the skill has become the hobby.

Power does not compare to skill.  What good is power without the skill to use it?

OMG.. I just read all of this and went to the "Sherman link". I think I've become dumber just from reading that shaZam! Got to say though I haven't laughed so much I nearly wet myself! :D

Wow...that's uhh.... some special kind of engineering.... maybe it's a joke....hard to say based on the thread...Anyway..

The baffle was ugly but probably his best thing he made.... The irony is the weight  loss was probably matched by loss in power...

They might put him on Junkyard Wars....heh...

I only read the first page while at work today, and almost laughed till I cried.  Then read the rest of it at home and completely lost it when I saw this:

Careful...they can be anywhere...okay, it may be obvious if you are caught dumpster diving for cans to make your exhaust, but lots of guys go to the hardware store and buy crap that they really have no business buying.... :icon_mrgreen:

Yup...buy tools that we don't really have a use for too...I have wood working tools and don't really work with wood, other than building sheds and stuff...nothing fancy...built a coffee table when I was single...as soon as I could affort to buy one, I used the one I built as firewood...it was that nice... :icon_mrgreen:

Now, a welder, that would be a nice addition...grinder, hammers and dollies...yup, that would be nice in the shop...need to build a shop...back to wood again... :wink:

Could I request we add motorcycle cruelty to that too?

Toogoofy317

Yes, motorcycle cruelty should be against the law too.

I bought a cheap welder almost a year ago, tried it once and didn't get anywhere, and it's still sitting down there haha. I'll figure it out someday. I might have better luck if I replace the HF wire for some better quality wire. It's hard to tell what you're doing wrong when you don't completely trust the machinery you're working on.
