Looking for a Harley?
by JustHatched- 1 reply

If anyone is interested Rose is selling her 2003 Harley Davidson Anniversary Edition 1200 Sportster. It has 1,600 original miles which is extremely low considering it is 11 years old. It looks like new and has many extra add ons. I will post a pic of the bike soon. SHe is asking $8,000 for it. Yes it is pricey for a used Sporty, but you won't find one like this with mileage like this. Only reason she is parting with it is she doesn't have a desire to ride, I do not ride anymore since mine got totaled with me on it a few years ago.

Welcome to my Moto Blog of Greatness. I hope to write at least one entry each week, hopefully more, on something motorcycle related. I've been riding almost all of my life on all types of bikes and in lots of different situations. I also plan to write about motorcycle racing, motorcycles in pop culture, new bikes, old bikes, travel, maintenance, safety gear and riding techniques. I am also reserving the right to blog about other gearhead stuff like cars, trucks, ships, tools and radio controlled things. For some reason I think my entries should serve some purpose. Maybe it's just to entertain and that's good enough but it would be cool if they also informed and enlighte…

Demo Pics

Went to the demo derby yesterday at the Georgetown Fair. Georgetown is a small town (less than 4,000) but puts on one of the biggest fairs in a few hundred miles. They have motocross racing, tractor pulls, the demo, and other shit going on. I prefer truck/tractor pulls over demos but the timing didn't work out. But this was the best demo I have seen in a while Overall - 2 cars and 1 truck caught fire and burned up pretty good. One man went to the hosptal when another car went thru is door. There was a fist fight in the pits and 2 cars were thrown up and out of the arena. My few pics not the best as I was holding my youngest daughter while doing it.

Michael Schumacher out of a coma

For any interested in motorsport or those who knew of his skiing accident last year. Personally, I love this guy, he's a racing legend and a childhood hero, I remember watching him race every weekend and dominating F1 for years. Michael Schumacher, the 7 times F1 drivers champion has been moved to another hospital to be closer to his home for visits from his family and it is reported that he can communicate with his wife, he is said to have lost a quarter of his body weight and "a full recovery is unlikely". http://www.telegraph.co.uk/sport/motorsport/formulaone/michael-schumacher/10902535/Michael-Schumacher-out-of-coma-live.html

Thought this might be a little something interesting for you racers out there, perhaps especially Rev. http://www.leftlanenews.com/subaru-to-attempt-breaking-its-own-isle-of-man-record.html Subaru has announced it will return to the Isle of Man in a 2015 Subaru WRX STI in an attempt to beat the standing lap record, set three years ago in a 2011 WRX STI driven by Mark Higgins. The legendary Irish Sea site of the Tourist Trophy races is considered one of the most grueling road courses in the world, lined with narrow streets lined with stone walls that are used as public roads when motorsports activities are not being conducted. The circuit is also among the worl…

My theory on racing.

That is an embarrassing video of me on a dirt track the second night in that type of car. I am the 01 finished 6th way off the pace. You do not see a lot of my car because it is not my video. Overall that year I finished 8th in the standing out of the 17 regular cars. 1. The best advise I can give the racers looking to improve is stay out of the accidents by giving a little extra room to people and not forcing the issue. Leave yourself an "out" and wait for a good spot to pass so if trouble starts happening you can try to avoid it. 15 cars started that race and 6 finished. 2. I can tell you is this learn the tracks most often used. Try different lines around t…

As you may have surmised, I'm an Infiniti kind of guy. I've sort of been following the idea of the Eau Rouge for a while now. Came across this interview that at least is a pretty interesting read, especially since there's a lot of Skyline and GT-R fans out there. http://www.motortrend.com/future/concept_vehicles/1406_project_raijin_turning_the_q50_into_a_luxury_gtr_for_real/viewall.html

whats up guys so ... if anyone out there has spent over $100 like me on the oxidation removal crap, heres a simple tip i just learned from Jenns grandmother -- use toothpaste. haha. believe it or not, it worked. i used arm and hammer first because it is our emergency out of toothpaste stuff, and after seeing that it actually worked, i went with our fancy $4.00 toothpaste. shines better than the arm and hammer. all of the crap ive bought in the past and i could have just used something i use everyday... good tip edit: we also tried it on her chrome bumber, and it works like a champ! wonder what else it can clean

TheLP2008

TheLP2008 was a website dedicated to NASCAR replays. He also covered Nationwide series, Trucks, K&N, V8 Supercars & F1. As you can see someone like me loved this site. For me it was the only way I could watch replays of NASCAR races online for free. It was shut down by NASCAR last week and I'm going insane not being able to see the replays anymore (call the waaaambulance!) Does anyone in the crew have a link for replays of NASCAR Sprint Cup for free. If so I'd be very grateful if your pasted it to this thread. Thanks, my life seems so empty now LOL!

Rate the Last Film you Watched 2: Electric Boogaloo
Subservience (2024) dir S.K. Dale Yet another mediocre sci-fi / thriller about AI and human-like robots. Michele Morrone plays Nick, a happily married father of 2 young children, struggling to raise them and do his construction site job since his wife (Madeline Zima) is seriously ill in hospital waiting for a heart transplant. So he buys Alice (Megan Fox), an almost completely life-like home-help / childcare / cook / cleaner robot. There are other similar robots working in many places such as hospitals, bars and construction sites (adding an additional plot element). Without spoilers (although IMHO there really isn't much to spoil) it's hard to say much more. But “stuff happens”, somewhat predictably if you consider the situation of wife in hospital, very hot nanny / maid robot at home etc etc. What is interesting is Alice starts to deviate from what she has been programmed to do, there's tensions with respect to a former colleague of Nick's, and these both lead to a reasonable action style tense ending with fights, shoot-outs and car chases. But overall it can only be described as OK. If you want action then watch an action film with more action than this. If you want drama then watch a drama film with more a more meaningful plot and better acting than this. There's some holes in the plot for me. Other than the robots it looks like present day. There is no other indication that this has to be either somewhat in the future or set in an alternative higher-tech reality. Nick's wife needs a new heart; if they have the technology to make such like-like robots (i.e. one that looks exactly like Megan Fox) then surely they would have mastered artificial organs for humans. Some of the other robots are too lifelike. I can understand Alice's appearance since she is designed to live in a home, although you might want to make such robots a bit less physically tempting a straight male owner. But there's no reason an entire synthetic construction site crew need to actually look like the humans' they replaced. And also no reason for them not be working constantly (the scene we encountered these is when they have been locked away for the night). There's one truly ridiculous aspect for me, for which I have knocked off another point for stupid prudishness. It has couple of mild s*x scenes. In one you can clearly see the actors are naked but without any full-frontal nudity. At one point the woman's breasts are briefly shown, but she has no n*pples! They must have been digitally removed. Why!? It's got enough to make it a 15 certificate, showing a couple of n*pples is surely not going to change that! There is one interesting plot element, but I have to put that with a spoiler warning. 4 / 10- 2

Thrills in the hills
Build intended as a random transform race, but with the modes shortcomings i changed it into a classic race. Locked to the Sport Classic. A lap is about 1:30, too tight for contact. https://socialclub.rockstargames.com/job/gtav/ojxLKVukw0Oyt8ho-V1ZWA- 1
